So without further ado, let’s delve into the main banger!. These post, teaches you how your device can type for you by using your voice instead of your hands.
This is particularly useful when you are lazy and don’t want to type. Or Just want to talk while the device writes. Or if you have had injuries in your hands or anything else that could make you not want to type.
