Would love to see iPhone speech to text feature.
I would love to see an iPhone speech-to-text feature added to OmniFocus. I often think of items I would like to put in my inbox when I'm in the car or on my way to a meeting. In both of these circumstances the on-screen keyboard is difficult, if not impossible, to use. The program is great, but a speech-to-text feature would make this the ultimate productivity program.

OmniFocus does have the ability to record voice notes, using the "Record Audio" button in the details screen of a new action, if that helps. I think we have a feature request for a bigger button and/or some sort of 'new item/new photo/new voice note' picker with bigger buttons filed; if that would help, be sure to email the [EMAIL="omnifocus-iphone@omnigroup.com"]support ninjas[/EMAIL] and let them know. They can vote that up on your behalf.
It's possible that Apple could add Text-to-speech capabilities to the iPhone OS which OmniFocus could then take advantage of. But it would be extremely difficult for us to write a feature like that all by ourselves, and you'd only be able to use it in OmniFocus. Letting Apple know this is something you'd like to see added, by using [URL="http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html"]this form[/URL], means you'd get the ability to use it in OmniFocus, Mail, and other iPhone applications as well. Thanks! |
I've been using a free ReQall account for the speech to text feature to send myself action/project emails. On my way to work I've recorded as many as 15 separate email actions. When I get to the office is when I usually process my inbox using the quick entry box in OF for Mac.
