re: Best dictation program/software ?

Why pay?

I open a doc on my windows laptop in Google documents and then open it on my phone as well.

Click mic icon, start talking and the words magically appear on screen.

Save as Word doc later if you need to export it.

Android speech to text is free and really good at predicting what you're saying.

You can say things like new paragraph, period, comma, etc and it understands. I'm sure there's a list somewhere of everything you can say.

I can't imagine installing something that would work better since speech recognition is one of Google's top priorites.

ETA showed this trick to my kids and they were able to write their school term papers virtually typo free. it was amazing to see how quickly they could come up with 10-20 pages once you remove the artificial constraint of the keyboard.

Life changing and it's all free.
