Every time I use Voice In for Google Docs, it will do this:

the red fox ran.

When I wanted it to do this

The red fox ran.

When it does the former, I have to take time to fix each sentence- deleting the space and capitalizing the first letter. Any way I can fix this?

Hi Rachel,

Unfortunately, on Google Docs, Voice In doesn't have access to the previous text. It is the only site that has this issue.
This is due to the unique way in which Google Docs renders text. More details at https://workspaceupdates.goog…

As a result, we do spacing/capitalization based on your previous phrase. If you refresh and dictate the first phrase, it should type correctly. Post that, all text is formatted based on the last dictated word.

We have moved to a new forum. Please ask your question at forum.dictanote.co.
