To change your tablet’s keyboard and input meth-
ods, go to Settings > Personal > Language & input.
Type text by speaking
You can use voice input to type text by speaking. This feature
uses Google’s speech-recognition service, so your tablet must be
connected to a Wi-Fi network to use it.
Text that you enter by speaking is underlined. You can continue
entering text to keep it, or delete it.
You can speak to enter text in most places that you can enter text
with the onscreen keyboard.
• Touch a text eld, or a location in text you’ve already entered
in a text eld.
• Touch the
Microphone key on the onscreen keyboard.
• When you see the microphone image, speak what you want
to type.
Say “comma,” “period,” “question mark,” “exclamation mark,” or
“exclamation point” to enter punctuation.
When you pause, what you spoke is transcribed by the speech-
recognition service and entered in the text eld, underlined.
You can touch the Delete key to erase the underlined text. If you
start typing or entering more text by speaking, the underline
disappears.
To improve processing of your voice input, Google may record a
few seconds of ambient background noise in temporary memory
