Morning kind people, can anyone reccomend 2 apps, hopefully free???
1stly.....any apps that are EASY to understand/use that allow you to speak & this coverts to written texts on forums (such as this) or online for PDF /WORD etc?. My eyesight is not fab! Have looked myself but can't find any?
2ndly, I know there are LOADS of free apps for big keyboards but can anyone reccomend a SIMPLE free app for use on my Motorola G6 play?
Thanks! Off for coffee no 2 lol!

"Google Keep" - Allows you to take notes, which you can also do by voice, you could then copy and paste the notes from there to the forum post or into Word
Might work for you ?
see this video about 10 mins in

Because its cloud based, you have access both on phone and PC, so you could dictate on the phone, then do the copy and pastes on the PC0 -
I use both Big Buttons and Keep0

forgot to mention Big Button Keyboard de Lux with the microphone is not free!
but its only £2.290 -
I use an app called Message Ease for typing an Android handsets. It looks strange and takes 5-10 mins to get used to, but is really quick thereafter0

You asked for apps, so presume android or iOS?
For desktop windows has a system that allows you to use speech to text in accessibility I think. But it's not the best at speech recognition
Google docs also allows speech to text and is much more accurate and a bit better layout than keep. You can also use voice commands for new lines, punctuation and other common things0 -

Poster stated was moto G6, so Android phone
