Speak naturally. Keep the meaning.
Recognition and formatting help turn a spoken draft into readable text. Always check names, numbers and important details before sending.
Your own vocabulary
Add important names, abbreviations and specialist terms to the personal dictionary. A useful hint for recognition, rather than a guarantee that every word will be right.
Say a little. Reuse a lot.
Snippets associate a short spoken cue with text you use often. Start with a non-sensitive standard reply and check its expansion before using it.
Choose the way it reads
Select a writing style for your draft. Review the result to make sure the tone still reflects your intent.
A place for passing thoughts
Use the scratchpad for notes and first drafts. Recent writing can help you return to earlier dictations; check the controls available in your beta build.
Choose a language deliberately
Use the recognition choices shown in your build. Automatic detection and mixed-language dictation can behave differently; neither implies translation.
