About
You can use Google Chrome as a voice recognition app and type long documents, emails and school essays without touching the keyboard. Dictation uses Chrome's Local Storage to automatically save the transcriptions and thus you'll never lose your work. There's no need for the Save button. Internally, it uses the Web Speech API of Chrome that is supported in all the newer release of Chrome browser including Google Chrome on Android. The app is integrated with Dropbox and Google Drive to help you easily export the transcribed text to your various online accounts. Alternatively, your can send the dictated text to any email address.
