Christina- I thought I had to find the dictate button to begin- and sometimes it seemed illusive- so that prompted the question. I did not know that you can begin dictation without a visible dictate button- thanks much for that info. Thanks to both you and Shawn, it sounds like there are at least 2 ways to make dictation easier.

Cher, I apologize, but I don't quite understand what you are asking for? Ok, if you are in the messages app and you are in a conversation page that you are having with John Doe, go to the bottom of the screen and do a one finger double tap on the edit field text box. That should pull up the keyboard. If the keyboard is already pulled up then the edit field text box where you will type/dictate your reply will be closer to the middle of the screen, just above the keyboard. You can touch the edit field just to make sure the cursor is in the correct spot. :) Then, do a two finger double tap and you will hear a tone. Start dictating and when you are done do another two-finger double tap. Also, at the bottom of the keyboard to the left of the space bar is a dictate button that you can use instead. I never use it but I think all you do is double tap the button with one finger, dictate, then do a single finger double tap since the dictate button would have been the last item touched on the screen. I find the two finger double tap method to initiate and end dictation mode much faster. :) HTH, Christina On Apr 30, 2014, at 4:38 PM, Don & Cher <[email protected]> wrote: Is there a way to direct her to reply to a message or do you just have to start a new one each time? I have not found a way to dictate a reply from inside the messages app- am I missing it? Thanks. Cher -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
