Hot off the press! 

Or better yet, hot off your mic! 

Either way - Bells has Speech-to-Text functionality! 

We've enhanced text editor (these are your Text or Long Text questions in progress notes) to be able to do speech-to-text! 

On the text editor format bar on the right side is a microphone icon. When clicked the user's microphone is used to turn the verbal speech to typed text in the text field. 

Clicking the microphone icon begins the recording of the conversation to turn into text. You can stop the recording/ speech-to-text functionality by clicking the icon a 2nd time. 

A microphone is required to utilize the speech-to-text functionality. If Bells cannot detect your microphone, an alert will show when the microphone icon is clicked.
