Tapping out a message on your PlayStation 5 (PS5) can be a frustrating experience. Even with an on-screen keyboard and the touch panel on your DualSense controller, it can still take a lot of time and effort. But fear not, there's a clever trick that can make messaging much easier and faster. With the PS5's Voice Dictation feature, you can simply speak your message out loud instead of typing it.
How to use Voice Dictation for messaging on your PS5
Using Voice Dictation for messaging on your PS5 is quick and easy. Here's how you can do it:
1. Press the PS button in the middle of your DualSense controller.
2. Choose a friend that you want to chat with and select Messages.
3. Click on the Enter A Message panel to start typing.
4. Instead of actually typing, choose the microphone icon on the keyboard.
5. The first time you use this feature, you'll need to accept some Sony Terms & Conditions.
6. Once you've accepted the terms, simply speak your message out loud and hit send.
Remember to speak slowly and clearly to avoid any mistakes. You can use this method for both individual chats and party chats using a Game Card. And the best part is, you don't even need a headset! The feature can work perfectly fine with the built-in microphone in your DualSense controller. Just make sure your microphone isn't muted (the LED bar on your DualSense shouldn't be orange).
However, keep in mind that using Voice Dictation may be challenging in a very loud environment. If possible, try to reduce the background noise by turning down the music or asking people nearby to be quiet. Additionally, having a high-quality gaming headset with effective voice isolation can greatly improve your experience with Voice Dictation.
So why struggle with typing on your PS5 when you can use the convenient Voice Dictation feature for faster and easier messaging? Give it a try and make your gaming chats a breeze!
