I've been experimenting with something small lately that's actually changed how I use Intura. I started dictating my journal entries using Wispr Flow.
I wasn't expecting much. I've tried regular iOS dictation before and always ended up fixing more than I wrote. But Wispr Flow is different. It transcribes the way you actually speak, cleans it up without making it feel robotic, and gets out of the way.
What surprised me
The entries feel more honest.
When I type, I edit as I go. A thought comes out, I don't like how it sounds, I rewrite it before I've even finished it. By the time I hit save, whatever I wrote has already been sanitized. When I talk, I just think out loud. Nothing to fix in real time. The thought lands as it came.
The three prompts in Intura (what mattered, who made a difference, what's still unresolved) turn out to work really well as spoken answers. You don't need to structure it. You just answer. Five minutes, done.
Why Wispr Flow specifically
Regular iOS dictation is accurate enough for messages, but it struggles with longer, less structured speech. It inserts punctuation awkwardly, drops words mid-sentence, and the result always needs cleaning. Wispr Flow handles natural speech better. It waits for you to finish a thought before committing it, and the output reads like something a person wrote rather than something a system transcribed.
I'm not affiliated with them. It's just the tool that finally made voice input feel worth using.
Whether this is just me
I genuinely don't know. Typing is faster for some people and more natural for others. There's something to be said for the slower pace of typing too: it can make you more deliberate. I'm not suggesting everyone switch. I'm just noticing that for this specific use case, talking works better for me than I expected.
If you've tried dictating your Intura entries, or have a strong reason you'd never want to, I'd actually like to know. Hit Settings → Submit Feedback and tell me.
