Summary
The core idea is similar to other dictation apps, as Essential Voice works in any app to turn your speech into formatted text, removing filler words like “um” and “ah” along the way. At the moment, the feature is available on the Phone (3) with rollout for Phone (4a) Pro planned for later this month, and support for Phone (4a) arriving next month. The average person types 36 words a minute on a phone. To access the feature, users either press the Essential key on devices where it is present or activate it from the keyboard.
