Better Voice Typing on Mobile especially with Punctuation

Tip is: Keep Punctuation on Screen and NOT the QWERTY keyboard is a really simple and straightforward thing to do. But do you do it? For me, it's a missing piece to the voice typing workflow.
As humans, we struggle with creating thought and writing or speaking out loud ALL at the same time. In other words, have an idea, go to write it and whoooosh idea is gone. Sometimes, speaking out loud while you let your eyes dream out the window is a great way to express new ideas.
- This method of course works for ANYTHING Voice Typed on Mobile.
- And yes, we can say 'full stop' to get a '.' on screen (or a period, depending on country setup)
- For me, 'question mark did NOT work...

Thanks, however, I can't seem to get an answer for this: how do you STOP talk text from spelling out punctuation instead of using the punctuation marks? This happens across all apps where I have the talk text option. I have an Android phone (Note 10+) and can't get a straight or simply answer. This just started happening a few months ago and apparently others are having the same issue.

Nice one! I have used it before but did not realise I could easily swap and change while recording.

I don't understand what the purpose of switching the keyboard is if the voice works on either? I just came here to find out how to insert a "full stop" without it simply typing it out (although I have just tried it again, and this time it did insert a ".").

[@JohnHansenBeadle]

Here in New Zealand, we say "full stop" at the end of a sentence. Voice Typing has however now trained me to go American and say "period" at the end of a sentence. Using it on Google Docs on an HP Laptop, however I note it struggles when I say "period" at the end of a sentence which, if I then continue to dictate it will spell the word period out! Is there any (easy!) way of modifying what it does so it simply puts a full stop at the end and allows me to continue dictating? Or is it "learning" as it goes?

God I love your accent

[@sandysandy967]

Not well made like we r saying fullsstop or stop and it shows a dot in the same way suppose for comma it can be said- c comma or comma comma or co comma anything which will give a variation in typing it. Like for space it can be said space space or s space or sp space and there can be a space. Its strange how nothing is done and so many wrong typings are are their. If these things are not corrected may be these keyboard will never shows good impact.

This also works with Google Docs and my iPhone.

Good, I have no idea on any other mobile keyboards, just gboard for Android.

I'm struggling with quotations.
That "man" is a jerk.
I can't get the app to that👆 via speech. I have to add the quotation symbols myself.

Which tool recorded your Voice and the video?

[@MikeDownes]

Hi, I would have used AZ Screen Recorder Android App for screen recording, you can use audio for your voice too, yet i used my Zoom H2n handy recorder for my voice (syncing what you see on screen with my voice), then i would have post edited using PowerDirector Android App. All these products are on this channel for help videos.
