Dictate
If you like, you can dictate instead of typing. Make sure Enable Dictation is turned on (in Settings >
General > Keyboard) and iPhone is connected to the Internet.
Note: Dictation may not be available in all languages or in all areas, and features may vary. Cellular
data charges may apply. See .
Dictate text. Tap on the onscreen keyboard, then speak. Tap Done when you finish.
Add text. Tap again and continue dictating. To insert text, tap to place the insertion point first. You
can also replace selected text by dictating.
Add punctuation or format text. Say the punctuation or format. For example, “Dear Mary comma
the check is in the mail exclamation mark” becomes “Dear Mary, the check is in the mail!”

quote … end quote
new paragraph
new line
cap—to capitalize the next word
caps on … caps off—to capitalize the first character of each word
all caps—to make the next word all uppercase
