Dictation shortcuts
Shortcuts for dictating using your voice and capturing the text to use on your device.
Use these shortcuts to interact with your Apple devices using your voice – capture longer thoughts, add quick notes, and save what’s on your mind right away.
These shortcuts put the Siri in Siri Shortcuts, letting you take advantage of voice prompts, dictation, and spoken audio as needed.
The shortcuts also include instructions and refernces on how to design your other shortcuts to work with Siri – by using Dictation & Speak Text for out loud always, and prompts & Show Result for out loud via Siri but written in the app, for example.
