  • Dictating in Word your essay or report 
  • Dictating in other Applications (e.g. Mind Genius, Outlook (emails), Gmail etc)
  • Transcribe audio files.

Note: Word Online can also transcribe audio files. It can capture live audio from an online meeting or mic recording and transcribe directly to Word Online. Word Online's transcription feature is recommended if you are capturing more than one speaker. Captured audio files are saved on your OneDrive. See also our Transcription FAQs.
Word Online also has a dictate button, but Dragon sets up an Audio Profile for your voice, so may be more efficient for dictating your written work.
