Browser Apps
TalkWriter works with any browser-based application that has a text input field. This includes popular tools like Notion, Figma, Linear, and many more.
App-by-App Tips
Notion
| Use Case | Tip |
|---|---|
| Page content | Click a block, then dictate. Text is inserted as a new paragraph. |
| Inline editing | Click inside an existing block to position your cursor, then dictate. |
| Database fields | Click a cell in a table view, then dictate. |
| Comments | Click "Add comment," then dictate your feedback. |
| TalkTone | Use "Concise" for bullet-point notes, "Professional" for documentation. |
Figma
| Use Case | Tip |
|---|---|
| Text layers | Double-click a text layer to enter edit mode, then dictate. |
| Comments | Click to add a comment on the canvas, then dictate. |

TalkWriter only works with text in Figma. It cannot interact with shapes, frames, or other design elements.

General Tips
- Click before dictating — Always make sure your cursor is in the text field you want to type into
- Review before saving — Some web apps auto-save. Review your dictated text quickly.
- Refresh if stuck — If paste does not work in a web app, try refreshing the page
- Use TalkTone — Match the TalkTone style to your context (Professional for client-facing, Casual for internal)
FAQ
Does TalkWriter work with any web app? Yes, as long as the web app has a standard text input field. Some custom rich text editors may behave slightly differently.
What if paste does not work in a specific web app? See the Text Not Pasting troubleshooting guide. The most common fix is re-granting Accessibility permission.
Can I dictate into iframes or embedded content? Usually yes, as long as the iframe contains a focusable text field. Click into the field first.
