Devices and related methods for simplified proofreading of text entries from voice-to-text dictation

摘要

Disclosed generally are voice-to-text dictation devices with improved software for simplified proofreading of text entries from voice-to-text dictation. One voice-to-text dictation device may suitably feature a touch-display, a microphone or other audio receiver, and computer hardware and memory. Preferably, the computer memory features software. In one embodiment, the software (in coordination with computer hardware and memory of the device) is configured to automatically and simultaneously during a speech: (1) create a voice recording file from spoken words provided to the microphone of the device; (2) convert the spoken words to an editable text document; and (3) synchronize the timing of words in the voice recording with the position of the words in the text document.
