Have you ever heard about the Voice Dictation feature on Mac or MacBook? Voice Dictation is a feature we can use on MacBook to help us in writing anything without typing. We just simply speak and the Voice Dictation feature will convert our voice into words.
In my opinion, this feature is such a lifesaver when we are unable to type normally because of a health problem or any other reason. It is also helping us when we are not in the good mood or in lazy mode. We can simply press the fn key twice and this feature is activated. Then, we just need to speak to our MacBook about anything and it will type for us based on what we are saying. It is so fun to do anyway.
But, do you know how to enable this feature on your Mac or MacBook? If you don’t that’s fine. I am going to show you How to Use Voice Dictation To Speak To Your Mac and MacBook.
Quick-Step
Click the Apple button > System Preferences > Click Dictation tab > Tick “On” option
