Live dictation

It would be great to see live dictation rather than waiting for it to appear - I appreciate this will be hard with smart dictation but I used to use Dragon dictate and it was really helpful when I could see it live.

It is odd that on the Heidi home page, it shows a fake animation of the dictation feature in different hypothetical applications, with text appearing as if live dictation. However, in practice the text only appears all at once after releasing the shortcut. Also, should have a toggle switch, not only a hold-to-dictate function. Heidi has a nice idea but false representation of features.

This is CRITICAL we need to see text as it appears otherwise we have to scan every single sentence after the fact to proofread for errors, wasting time which is the whole point of the app for medical users.

Need LIve Dictation feature comparable to Dragon Powermic and Fluency Direct. Currently the user Can only use the copy and paste like functionality of Heidi.Another bummer is that it capitalizes the first letter of every first word rather than recognizing placement in the middle of a sentence. It is not very prepared for functionality.

Thanks Tom, I think seeing it helped when writing long referral letters for example so you can remember what you have said and not repeat yourself. I use both transcript and dication a lot every day and generally not an issue with the speed. So I am thinking longer dications such as complex patients or referral letters

Great to hear your perspective, Ben Ballenyne! I have a few more questions for you:
- What specific features of Dragon dictate did you find most useful for live dictation?
- How important is the speed of transcription to your workflow?
- Are there specific scenarios or types of patient visits where live dictation would be most beneficial?
