Nothing continues to at least try new stuff, unlike so many other companies who are afraid to take risks. The latest example is a new app\/service for Nothing phones called Essential Voice that wants to be your voice-to-text master.<\/p>\n
Rolling out first to the Nothing Phone (3) and Phone (4a) Pro, Nothing wants you to press the Essential Key and then talk to your phone whenever there is a text box that you might otherwise type in.<\/p>\n
Essential Voice will take your natural speech and then clean it up to transcribe it in real-time. It\u2019ll try to get rid of \u201cums\u201d and \u201cuhs,\u201d for example. It can also translate 100+ languages and let you create custom voice shortcuts for words, links, templates, and repeated phrases.<\/p>\n
Auto-correction: Improves clarity and structure and removes filler words \u2013 like ums and uhs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Personal Mappings: \u00a0Custom voice shortcuts for words, links, templates and repeated phrases.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Translation Agent: Speak in one language, ask Essential Voice to write text in another.\u00a0<\/p>\n
100+ Languages: Wide language support with auto-detection. You can also select preferred regional variants like Latin American Spanish or Simplified Chinese.<\/p>\n
Following the release on Phone (3) now, Phone (4a) Pro will get access \u201clater this month.\u201d The Nothing Phone (4a) will get access in \u201cearly May.\u201d For other phones, Nothing hasn\u2019t announced anything.<\/p>\n
