      SCOTT - I am a person with neurodiversity, and need to set up voice memo emails. (not voice to text) I have been struggling with this for almost 2 years. Keep spending a few hours here and there, but can't figure it out. Spent 3.5 hours today alone. Found 2 types of voice Memos today.. Mote and voice.. But can't get either of them working. I have a haiwei media pad tablet. And I may soon have access to a refurbished laptop.. But the tablet is my go-to. Could you do a video about this?

    • @leslie6189
      @leslie6189 Před rokem +1

      Due to my neurodiversity, crafting a single email can take hours, but voicemails take minutes... So from an accessibility standpoint.. Being able to use voice emails would change my life and ability to interact with ease... Please, a video? It's good for everybody too, as being able to send voice emails is super time-efficient and ensures messages are perceived with the tone intended.. Which helps both business and personal communications

      @@leslie6189 Great suggestion, Leslie. Thank you so much for your input!

  • @samedayeditfilmsandtciphot1275

    Wow! You just made my email headaches much more manageable. I have even missed client emails because there are so many newsletters and others trying to get my limited attention that I can't see the important things in the inbox. Your explanation was clear, simple, and to the point. Thanks for making the video and helping!

    You're really very skilled in delivering just the important information at the right pace (for me) with enough voice animation to keep us engaged. I didn't need to skip forward at all and I watched it all to the end even though it was not my intention. Dope skillz, good sir.
