As is the number of old fellas who pretend they don't need this stuff, when actually, they don't understand it
nothing wrong with that of course, but lets call a spade a spade aye.
For example, the previously mentioned dictaphone app is a VERY easy app to conceive and freely available on most, and I imagine ALL smartphone platforms. In fact Siri, being voice activated on the iphone,could probably open it, say in a car, and record a voice memo without touching the device. ... If a suitable hands free was fitted to the car. Or in normal use just press and speak to either voice memo or talk to notes via Siri, where it will type what you speak. (If you speak clearly
)
The technology exists, but of course, weather you choose to use it or not is up to you obviously
Edit, Siri can't open an app. on a jail broken device. I just tried it.
Clearly I'm getting old
But it can type what you speak.
