Mental model

A Voice to Text widget is a dictation mic. It listens, transcribes speech to text, and hands that text to your logic — hands-free input for a dashboard.

When to use it

  • Voice commands (“turn on the light”)
  • Hands-free text entry

Settings

General

  • Widget Title / ID
  • Language — recognition language
  • Continuous recognition — keep transcribing
  • Always listening — hands-free
  • Auto-send on speech end — emit when the user pauses

Triggers

Acting on the transcription

Use the Script API — the event carries the recognized text:

Text to Speech

The reverse — speak text aloud.
