Microsoft will add new voice commands and some already available in other Office apps to OneNote.
Dictation with AI-assisted voice commands allows users to add, format, edit and organize their text.
Microsoft rolled out dictation to OneNote for Mac, which was already available on Windows and on the web version of OneNote.
The feature is available to Beta Channel users running macOS version 16.68 or later, the company said. Dictation with AI-assisted voice commands allows users to add, format, edit and organize their text.
The feature allows users to use the power of their voice to overcome the blank page and capture notes at the speed of thinking in more than 50 supported languages, the company said.
In addition, the company noted that it will add new voice commands to OneNote in the coming months, as well as some that are already available in other Office apps.
To launch the dictation experience, users need to click the Dictate button on the Home tab, then click the Dictation Settings button to adjust their preferences and click OK.
After that, users can start speaking to take notes, and when they’re done dictating, they need to say “stop dictating” or click the Stop Dictating button on the dictation toolbar.
The company says the Dictate feature will help when taking notes from a meeting, presentation or lecture, and also if a user has a new idea and wants to capture it instantly while multitasking.
