Please add a dictate function for Teams Chat!!! I just had shoulder surgery and can't type for 5 weeks, but I need to do my job. This would save lots of time and miss-types. To get around this I will use my apple devices.

Actually - I just found out you can do this with Windows Key + H. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/use-dictation-to-talk-instead-of-type-on-your-pc-fec94565-c4bd-329d-e59a-af033fa5689f#:~:text=To%20start%20dictating,%20select%20a%20text%20field%20and,button%20on%20the%20touch%20keyboard%20to%20start%20dictating.

I can't believe this isn't a feature in Teams. Comments on this go all the way back to 2018 and as stated, this is an accessibility issue for numerous disabilities. Fortunately my interest is just for convenience because I am tired of typing all day in the app that is supposed to make it easy to communicate quickly and frequently with multiple people all day long. I don't know how features are priorities for development but this is a significant miss in the list!

Please add the exact same function that is in Outlook 365. In the ribbon there is a Dictate button with a picture of a microphone. Copy that code to Teams Chat

speech to text is a must of Teams chat! This is a basic functionality that needs to be added to streamline and efficiently have Teams conversations throughout the work day.

please solve this ticket as soon as possible. as an organisation , our employees that relies on Dragon naturally speaking are not adopting the use of Teams because of the non-compatibility between the two softwares.

I tried the [windows + h] and I got a message saying "dictation isn't fully supported in this app". It didn't work very well.

You can use Windows 10 Dictation service feature. It needs to be enabled in windows settings (press [windows-icon]+h)
To use in teams, invoke dictation service (press [windows-icon]+h), a mic will appear on top of screen > put the cursor in reply box > press space to clear the backgroung instruction text > start dictating.If you want to start dictating again, press mic on top of the screen and repeat the process

Please consider this capability is the MUST ASAP for your product (Voice dictate should work for all Microsoft apps)
You are way behind Android :-( -

My son is junior doing all virtual school through Teams, he just had a bad injury and left hand cannot type. I am really surprised he can't dictate in Teams and is having to use another program and copy and paste to communicate with his teachers, I thought for sure that functionality would be there! :(

Please add! Particularly during the pandemic and more work from home staff, constantly typing in Teams is taking a toll on wrists. Thanks!

PLEASE add this. I am so sick of typing out my conversations all day and universal speech to text through Windows doesn't work well with this application.
