![]() The more I use this program, the more I like it! So if you prefer to speak to your Mac, instead of typing on it, considered Nuance’s Dragon Dictate for Mac OS X as it makes the tedious job of entering large amounts of information quickly, easily and accurately. I can see using DragonDictate quite a bit to dictate e-mails and Word documents. By doing this calibration, you’ll find that Dragon Dictate is fairly accurate. ![]() The program comes with a USB headset and you must spend about 20 minutes teaching Dragon Dictate how you typically speak so that it can learn how you pronounce words and your voice inflections. At this point, you can open a new document and simply start dictating a letter a note or what have you simply by speaking into your microphone! Frequent dictation errors aside, while Voice Control works well in Apple’s own applications such as Messages, Mail, and Pages, it’s a lottery that third-party application text boxes will work. For example, you can say, “Open Microsoft Word” and Dragon Dictate will launch Microsoft Word automatically. Additionally, you can use DragonDictate for Mac to control applications on your Mac that you may already have. For the purpose of this review, however, I am not editing any of this text at all so that you, Gentle Reader, can get a good idea of how accurate this program is.ĭragon Dictate for Mac allows you to easily create documents, e-mails, chats, Facebook postings, and more. According to Nuance, people talk about three times faster than they can type and although I get tongue-twisted from time to time I can easily say that I can talk twice as fast as I can type! Additionally the nice thing about dictating to my Mac is that just as I can type by speaking to my Mac I can easily edit the same document with my voice instead of using the keyboard. As a matter-of-fact, I think I might use this Mac application as much as I use my iPhone app with the same name. I must say, that it works as well as the Dragon Dictation program for my iPhone.
