Dictation Options

Recording Mode

These are managed in Fluency Direct's Microphone Setup screen.

Toggle to Talk: This option allows you to tap the microphone icon, which will begin your recording session. When finished recording, tapping the microphone icon again will end the recording session. This method is the default recording behavior.

Hold to Talk: Use this option when you will be using the microphone sporadically and you wish to hold the microphone icon to activate the microphone. With this mode, you will hold the record button during the entire dictation and release the microphone icon when finished.

Combined: This option supports both Toggle to Talk and Hold to Talk. This is only available for the Mobile Microphone app.

Microphone

The microphone indicator will display in green when you are dictating.  Your speaking volume will be displayed in the outer circle and will adjust according to how loud you are speaking.

Linked to

Mobile Microphone can be linked to multiple users at one time.  The currently connected username will be displayed on the main screen. The app can only be connected to one user at a time and it remembers the last user selecting.  Tapping the blue Change option takes the user to a screen for easy user switching or adding an additional user.

Toolbar

Note

The buttons at the bottom of the screen are available in Mobile Mic 3.0 and below, but require the user to be signed into Fluency Direct version 10.0.500+ in order to see them in the app.

These buttons are set by default, but can be changed (both the function and the icon) at the user level.  

Defaults from left to right:

  • Undo That

  • Show Speech Box

  • Command Only Mode

  • Next Field.
