Voice Typing (Speech-to-text Recognition)

In a nutshell!Dictate Arabic text on the go!
What is it?Voice Typing through real-time speech-to-text transcription is another popular form of typing text which works by converting speech (and sound) into text on your screen.  You may use it to test your pronunciation of words or transcribe you notes (when you can’t type them).
