#### Important Notes

* Voice input is appended to any existing text in the text input field, so you can combine typing and speaking your prompts
* You can record up to 50MB of audio
* ElevenLabs, Groq, and OpenAI send audio recordings to their servers for processing. The local provider processes audio entirely on your device—no data leaves your computer.
* Voice input is appended to any existing text in the text input field
* Recordings are not stored locally after transcription
* To disable voice dictation, select `Disabled` from the provider dropdown
