Autoscroll function and speech to text?


Speech to text in Windows 10 is an option once you have set up Cortana. It is capable of voice recognition and will translate your voice into text on MS Word. But even if you use a sensitive microphone, it is not as accurate as speech to text pro which is an app that uses remote web services to perform speech to text conversion.

 

Speech to Text on Windows 10 Mobile (On Lumia ICON-Verizon)

Hello,
FT-1960.

Thank you for posting your query to Microsoft Community. I understand that the speech to text function has been removed from your messaging and email after upgrading your Lumia ICON to Windows 10 Mobile.

You can use the speech to text function by using Cortana.

Please follow the steps below:

1. Launch Cortana.
2. Tap on the Mic icon.
3. Say the keyword "Send a text message".
   • Cortana will ask who do you want to text. Provide the contact name of the person whom you want to text and the text message that you want to send.
4. Cortana will then ask if you would like to send or add more. Press the
   Mic icon again and say your command.

I understand that this process may be tedious. Please use
Feedback Hub app to help make Windows Mobile better. Share your suggestions and concerns by using the said app.

You may also use a third party app called
Text-To-Speech.

Hope this helps.

Feel free to post back if you need further assistance.

 

Windows 10 Text-to-speech doesn't work

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

How are you trying to use text-to-speech on your computer?

If Cortana is not working on your computer, then I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned in

Troubleshoot problems with the Start menu or Cortana and see if you are able to use Cortana.

You can use Narrator to
Hear text read aloud, so that Narrator reads text on your PC screen aloud.

Also, you cannot use Cortana for text-to-speech because Cortana doesn’t have the functionality of text-to-speech.

Hope it helps.
