Using Custom Voice Commands in Voice In

Custom voice commands lets you map a phrase to another phrase or command. You can use custom voice commands to:

1) Correct common dictation errors,

For example, one user reported that due to her accent, when she says "new line" to insert a new line, it always gets dictated as "Uline". She can correct this error by adding a voice command mapping.

So next time she says "new line", it will actually trigger the new line voice command.

Two other common use cases:
- You can also use it enable adult language words without the censorship asterixis
- If you want words dictated in British english instead of American English 

2) Simplify common tasks

For example, a salesperson would add a voice command

A doctor who is doing a general checkup of a patient would add

This saves time with having to copy paste this block of text before every consultation.
