Wireless earbuds reduce friction: you dictate without holding a phone. The tradeoff is mic distance — a few settings help.

Fit and wind

A secure fit improves bass response for speech. Wind still matters; cup the mic side briefly in gusts if needed.

iPhone keyboard

AiType's keyboard runs alongside system dictation; choose the workflow that fits each app.

Mac desktop

Desktop dictation benefits from a quiet room. For long sessions, prefer a desk mic — but AirPods win for mobility.
