Built-in commands
Creating your own
1
Open Settings
Open Vox, go to Settings, and find the voice commands section.
2
Add a command
TODO: name the button.
3
Write the trigger phrase
This is what you will say. Pick something you would not say by accident in normal
dictation. “Insert my address” is safer than “address”.
4
Choose what it does
TODO: list the available action types. Text replacement? Keyboard shortcut?
Running a Shortcut?
Writing trigger phrases that work
- Three or more syllables. Short triggers fire by accident.
- Unnatural word order helps. A phrase you would never say in passing is a phrase that will never fire in passing.
- Avoid homophones. “Right” and “write” will collide.
- Test it inside a real sentence, not on its own. That is where false triggers show up.
