Once you’ve completed onboarding, you should have your permissions and hotkey set up. Then, to start Flowing:

1. Start in a text box

For Flow to know where you want to transcribe, your cursor must be in a textbox. This can be in any application on your computer—Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Docs, Notion, you name it. Just look for the flashing cursor.

2. Press your hotkey (Mac default: Fn , Windows default: Ctrl + Alt )

Once you hear Flow’s signature ping or see the white bars start moving, you can start dictating.

3. Let go of your hotkey

To paste the text, let go of the hotkey to paste in the text box you’re in. Ta-da, Flow should have pasted your dictation in the textbox. If not, please let us know.

P.S. If you click Esc , your transcript will be canceled, but don’t worry—you can still find it in the History tab.

Help Flow get smarter. If something isn't quite right with your transcript, flag it! This helps train our model, making Flow smarter for the entire Flow community.
