I use my MacBook's talk to text feature in order to type my words while speeking as I am doing now into just about any application.  This feature does not work in the Notes section of the logos software so I have to type the words in Notes or use MS Word or Pages or other to take my notes.

Can this capability be added?

    It CAN be added; WILL it be added? Apple certainly provides the APIs to make it possible. (APIs are basically sections of code that keeps the look and feel of Macs the same from program to program).

    My understanding is that Logos begins as a Windows product, and is then recompiled to run on Mac computers. (I'm open to correction on this). If that is correct, then a feature that specifically requires a Mac API to function is probably not going to be a priority. 

    That being said, you can request Logos to add it at https://feedback.faithlife.com/boards/logos-desktop-app

    It's possible, but how many people would use it? How much attention FL gives to new features depends on how many users want it. 

    For me, SIRI annoys me so much in dictating simple text messages that I would never use that feature in Notes.
