My Wife asked me if I knew what her favorite flower was?
Apparently "Robin Hood All Purpose" was the wrong answer!

Sorry no idea. Check the website.

I think Google might have one that works with Android.

Checked on Google play and there are several that you can try including Dragon.

Dragon is the big one.

I thought you could also do voice to text with Windows 10 (Cortana)?

Dragon dictation for iPhone for sure, I've used it but it's no better,I found, than using factory siri.
Not sure about Android but I've found both are supported for these types of apps.

Notes or memos have voice recognition and I can't say for certain but you won't find anything free that's better.
Would so rather be over educated that a knuckle dragging Neanderthal bereft of critical thought and imagination. Although in the case of Neanderthals, that's quite the insult.

Just strikes me that voice to text is quite imperfect regardless what is used.

A newby here first post, Hi everyone.
If you have Gmail try Google Drive to do Voice to text. I use it for short stuff and it works great I don't know about a whole book, LOL
Open Google Drive, create a blank document.
Go to the menu Tools/Voice typing
Make sure your Mic is on and click "Speak to type"

Let me know how it works for you
