Nuance Communications announced the availability of its Dragon Dictation App on the App Store.

The app allows iPhone users to speak emails and text messages instead of typing them, dramatically extending the way users stay connected to friends and family. Dragon Dictation also works with the iPhone clipboard, allowing users to speak naturally and easily paste it into their other apps, including Facebook and Twitter. The app is currently free for a limited time.

“Dragon Dictation takes the messaging experience on the revolutionary iPhone to a whole new level,” said Michael Thompson, senior vice president and general manager of Nuance Mobile. “Dragon Dictation is also incredibly natural and intuitive. Users will soon find they’re speaking more than typing using the power of speech to communicate even faster, whatever they’re doing and wherever they are."

With the Dragon Dictation App, spoken words are instantly transcribed using Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech recognition.
