Then I will share two voice to text methods that are built into Windows and do not require third-party tools:
Windows built-in "Voice Typing" function
- Press the shortcut keys Win+H, and after the microphone icon appears on the screen, just speak directly to automatically convert to text.
- Advantages: Free, simple, ready to use, and can also be recognized offline.
- Disadvantages: Recognition accuracy is greatly affected by accents, and the experience of standard Mandarin will be better.
Windows "Speech Recognition" function
- Type "speech recognition" in the Windows search bar to turn it on.
- Advantages: No need to install anything, support more system control commands.
- Disadvantages: Chinese recognition effect is average, more suitable for English operation, and requires patience to train the model.
The above two speech to text / voice to text methods do not require any third-party software to be installed, and can be done directly in the built-in functions of Windows, which is very suitable for users who want to save trouble~
