Help! I managed to shatter my wrist and I need to find a relatively good app to use before going insane.

Iāve heard that you can put the google docs app on your phone use it to do voice-to-text. Of course, there is some degree of misheard words and punctuation to go back and correct, but itās supposed to be an easy to use option. Iāve heard great things about Dragon, but itās pricey.

Iāve used google docs on my phone with voice to text. It works OK for getting down the gist of things, although needs a fair bit of editing with my kiwi accent 
(although I normally need to edit quite a lot with all my typos too!!) Dragon can be ātrainedā to have a 97% + accuracy so that might be a better option but I hear the best version for that is the PC version, rather than the app.

I am so sorry to hear that ! I fractured my wrist several years ago and started out with a cast, but then the ābones movedā (thatās how the doctor put it). They took off the cast and gave me something called an extender (rods in my wrist/arm with a rod on the outside holding things steady). I had to have that for six weeks, but the good news was I could type. I really feel for you! Iāve used the Windows speech tool, but speaking instead of writing doesnāt work well for me, so I donāt have any good ideas. I hope you are better soon!

Iāve found Otter at Otter.ai to be incredibly useful, simple yet powerful.
