Windows 11 is about to support voice typing

Microsoft has just officially released Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22538 for testing users on the Dev Channel, which comes with some great improvements related to voice-based access utilities on Windows 11.

Notably, there will be a feature that allows you to perform individual keystrokes with your voice commands, instead of using your hands as usual. Specifically, you can speak each letter, number and even punctuation marks and characters present on the keyboard and type them into the touch keyboard. This will be an extremely useful feature in case you need to spell out someone's name, address, or a specific word by reading (spelling) each letter aloud.

In addition, according to Microsoft, users will not only be able to use the new feature to type characters and letters, but also enter emojis by voice. This is clearly a useful device because emoticons are one of the indispensable components in today's online conversations and interactions.

It should be noted that this feature is only available to Windows Insider testers on the Dev Channel, and it is not clear when Microsoft will roll it out to the general user community. In addition, the currently supported language will most likely only be English (UK - US). Therefore, users need to configure the display language of the system to English - US for the feature to work correctly.

In the meantime, if you're a Dev Channel member, you can download Insider Preview Build 22538 right now and experience it for yourself.
