Google Docs voice typing

1. Built-in Google Docs voice typing

1. Open a document in Chrome and go to Tools → Voice typing (or press Ctrl+Shift+S / Cmd+Shift+S).
2. Click the microphone and speak. Say “period”, “comma” or “new line” for punctuation in supported languages.
3. Limits: it works only in Chrome, only inside Google Docs and Slides, and stops if you click away from the document.

2. AI dictation that adds punctuation for you

1. With Voice Typing AI you click into the document, press Alt+Shift+D and just talk — punctuation and capital letters are added automatically.
2. It also works outside Docs: email, chats, forms, notes — and in Edge and Brave.

How to use it

1. Install Voice Typing AI from the Chrome Web Store (free) and allow the microphone once.
2. Click into any text field — an email, a document, a chat box, a form.
3. Press Alt+Shift+D once and speak. When you pause, the text appears with punctuation and capital letters.
4. Say “new line” or “new paragraph” for line breaks. 15 free minutes every day, no account.
