Release Notes
New features Talk to Bolt with voice dictation You can now prompt Bolt by talking instead of typing. Dictation supports multiple languages, and you can mix speech and typing in the same prompt. Start dictation in one of three ways: - In the chatbox, click Dictate (microphone icon). Click Stop recording or press ENTER when you're done. - Press and hold CTRL+SHIFT+D while you talk, then release. - Right-click and hold in the chatbox while you talk, then release. When you stop, Bolt transcribes your speech into the chatbox so you can edit it before sending. Bolt needs access to your microphone the first time you dictate. Learn more about using dictation.
