Convert Voice into Notes (text) - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there anyway to use the speech feature to make notes into text. If you use the speech feature in One Note it only records voice for later playback.

There are probably some apps in the Marketplace that do this? I know there are cloud-based speech recognition APIs one could use to write such an app.

Try this: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/apps/1806873e-ab23-44d7-a8f6-0a547d788e24
In app you can convert speech to text for new message and copy text to notes.

If something has really low rating I usually don't try
can't justify the 99c with such horrible reviews, and this is more for a friend than myself

Speech to Text SMS

Does anyone know of any Windows Mobile 6 Voice SMS programs?
I drive a lot, and typing on a small keyboard while driving is not all that comfortable. So i was wondering if there is any program which would let me speak the words into a SMS message and the words would translate into text.
I don't think most PPC devices really have the muscle for accurate speech to text. It's only recently that it's quality has gotten fairly acceptable for PCs with processors a good 10-15 times faster than most PDA phones have available to them.
I use Jott (www.jott.com) semiregularly and it's a really nice service. If you're based in the USA, you find it useful for your needs.
As avatar said, I don't think PPCs have the processing power (yet).
As avatar said most software in this category is quite unreliable. If you do a google search for this software are try the first few options available you will discover this for yourself

I was looking more of a program which will allow me to speak out a text message and convert my words into text so I can send a text message to a phone number. Jott only sends out emails.

yeah ive been hunting for something like that for a while... still looking. As far as text to speech goes the best available is textspeech pro
I am searching speech to text software for a long time too. I really want to record my job meeting by my phone and it can convert the meeting converasation to a word document or PDF file, then it is easier to make a memo for the meeting. Also, I don't need to busy to drop note in the meeting.
If anyone who know that kind of Program?

Thanks for your reply, but the software you mentioned above is a text-to-speech,
software but not a speech-to-text. They are not the same kind of software.

I'll keep looking!
I know that there are apps for speech to text for the iphone and for Blackberrys. Somebody's gotta be able to do it.
Try Dial2Do
Someone above said that Jott doesn't do texts. I used to send text messages while driving with them all the time. According to their website they still do it. But I quit Jott when they went out of beta, and switched to Dial2do. Same functionality, as far as texting goes, but a free service.

Try Speereo
Well ther's a new app called tellme which uses your voice for text, searching internet and many other features... just a quick search here and it will take you to the thread but its only compatible with WM6.5, and you need to install microsoft voice command before installing tellme...

Voice control : Vlingo now FREE

http://blogs.computerworld.com/16730/android_voice_control_without_froyo
Vlingo has announced that effectively immediately, it's voice to action is now FREE
Thanks gonna try it.
I just downloaded Vlingo...but when I say the "send text" command it opens up the native Android SMS app, even though I have Google Voice as the default SMS app on my phone. How do I get Vlingo to open Google Voice when sending texts?
It may not be able to integrate to it. It's only advertised to work with the defaults after all. GV is an addition in 2.1, so I cant say.
Try "text via voice" or something similar. You could also contact the developer.
How is working with battery? Does it drain battery a lot?
Honestly? I don't know. I suppose it does no more than Google Voice Search, when in use.
Despite the cool factor, this doesn't make Captivate a KITT
Works with handcent sms fine. For sms, I prefer it. Also has a widget to turn on read aloud for sms.
Edwin seems to open apps better. Edwin has translation. You can also have search results come back as audio.
Google default dials contacts faster but this shows phone book and google results which is nice.
Overall great addition.
Also like gesture search app. Try that one out.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
The problem I'm having with this, as well as the Google Voice thingamabob, is that I have to tell it the whole name of someone in my contact list before it recognizes who I'm talking about. It misses on first names every time, even if the first name I ask it to call or text is unique on the contact list. I had hoped Vlingo would be an improvement, but, alas....

Decent free text-to-speech app?

Does anyone have any recommendations for a FREE text to speech app?
I currently have eSpeak, which Google Translate pointed me to, and it sounds horrid. It sounds even worse on the Navigation app (turn by turn directions).
Thanks.
Text to Speech - Voice Reconition

Searching for voice recognition/ walkie talkie app

Hey there xda dudes,
I'm searching for an app or rather a feature which I can't find: I want to send voice/ audio messages like walkie talkie apps and also have voice recognition in there, so that me and friends don't have to hear the message and can also read it, even if it was recorded as a voice message and not typed. That would be awesome!
Even better if it was streaming and sending while recording and also, with the new ICS "open mic voice recognition" instant transcribing )
Looking forward to your helps and respons0rz

HeyTell can do audio messages but I dont think it can do the voice recognition part...
Hey, yes thank you, that's also what I found. There are a couple of apps which can do voice messages, but found none that transcribe to text. Which would be incredibly awesome.

I use the flexT9 keyboard and regularly use the speech to text option to enter a text msg/instant message in various programs...that seems to be what you're really looking for.

Thank you, but nah... I'm searching for BOTH voice message AND transcribed text... so I can send recorded messages without having to type what I said. But still send the voice message, because it's different from just text.

Google Voice Native Integration with Voice Commands

As an iphone user and a heavy google voice user I'm a bit frustrated at how google voice can't integrate with my iphone. On the iphone I will have to open a third party app or the official GV app to make a call/send it text via google voice. That's fine but the problem on the iphone is you can't choose the native apps or change the default system actions. Thus when you want to send a link to the webpage via sms the iphone will automatically use it's own client and your default carrier number, when you want to dial out using voicecommands or a bluetooth headset you'll dial out using the native iphone caller client and your default carrier number (you get the gist of this).
I know that andriod phones have varying degrees of google voice integration. I know some phones give you the option of choosing between your numbers when you dial out and stuff like that. My question is how does this work on newer phones and phones with jellybean? If I want to text a link from my browser using my google voice number - can I do so directly or do I need to go about the roundabout way of copying the link and pasting it from say the google voice application? If I want to make a handsfree call from my headset using my google voice number - can this be easily done? I know jellybean has the feature where you can send a handsfree text message - can I do so from my google voice number (not the default carrier number)?
Does this integration carry over to third party apps? If you want to send a link from within an application will you be able to do so directly using your google voice number? If you use a driving hands free assistant link vlingo can you designate your outgoing texts and calls to be your google voice number.
Thanks guys and sorry for the cluster of questions.
