Your first dictation

  1. Put your cursor in a text field—mail, chat, a document, code editor, or browser.
  2. Start dictation.
  3. Speak normally, then stop dictation.
  4. Bulbul transcribes, cleans the text according to your selected mode, applies your rules, and inserts the result.

On desktop, hold your dictation hotkey while speaking and release it when you are done. The default varies by operating system; you can record any comfortable combination in Settings.

If the result is not exactly how you wanted it, correct it naturally. Bulbul can learn from those edits and suggest a Dictionary entry later.
