SueM Sue, there is good voice control on the iPad - it's turned on in the Accessibility Settings.

Maybe take a look at some videos on YouTube and see how people use it, then you'll get an idea of what it can do - just type 'iPad voice control' into YouTube's search bar and lots of videos come up, it's the same for iPhones.

Love Ellie.

Thank you Ellie, I’ll have a look x

That’s good to know Gary,will look into it thanks x

I can write quicker than I can type, could do with a boogie board that speaks as you write x

Janette, on my Chromebook and Android tablet, if I open SpeechAssistant and use the onscreen keyboard there is an option that allows you to write on the screen with your finger and it converts it to text that the program will then speak for you. I'd do a screenshot if I could figure out how.

SueM have you got Dragon voice to text software. You can use it to dictate and give it commands like copy, past, search the web, new email etc

Thank you, no I haven’t but will look into it

DJW Have you got MND or are you a carer? I ask because you haven't put a diagnosed date on your profile?

[matthew55]

That's completely useless if you are mute. 🤔x

I think we all take things for granted and don’t appreciate what we have until we no longer have it. I still have my voice, but am losing the ability to use a key board even on the iPad, and writing is nearly impossible.

I am but I am finding harder to write as my hands weaken. 😢x

I use a boogie board. I find it easier than a computer.
