Where you can dictate
Dictation works in the PrimeFix app and on the web, on any device with a microphone.
- Diagnosis: Dictate notes, under Diagnosis notes.
- Completion report: Dictate description, under Work description, and Dictate materials, under Materials used.
Record a note
- Select the Dictate button under the field.
- Allow microphone access the first time you are asked.
- Speak. The screen shows Recording and a timer.
- Select Stop and transcribe, or Cancel to throw the recording away.
- Read the text that was added and correct it before you submit the form.
Languages
Speak in Arabic, English, Urdu or Bengali. You do not choose the language: it is detected, and the text comes back in the language you spoke. The office can later have your words rewritten in the language the client needs.
Limits and privacy
- A recording can be up to 2 minutes. For more, record several shorter notes.
- Dictated text is added after what is already in the field; it does not replace it.
- For materials, each item you name becomes its own line.
- The recording is never stored. It is turned into text once and discarded, and the text becomes part of the job only when you submit the form.
Tips
- Record in a quiet spot, away from running compressors and fans.
- Say part names and quantities clearly, then check the numbers in the text.
Frequently asked questions
- Why does it say We couldn't hear any speech?
- The recording had no clear speech. Move somewhere quieter and try again.
- The microphone does not work. What can I do?
- Allow microphone access for PrimeFix in your phone settings, or for the site in your browser. If the device cannot record, type your notes instead.
- Is my voice recording kept?
- No. It is used once to produce the text and then discarded.
