Quick phrases let you say a short trigger phrase and have Scout expand it into a longer piece of text. Say “my email” and Scout types your full email address. Say “standard reply” and Scout types your go-to response.
Setting up a quick phrase
Open Settings → Quick Phrases
You’ll see your list of existing phrases (if any).
Click Add phrase
Enter a trigger (what you say) and a replacement (what Scout types).
Save
The phrase is active immediately.
Examples
| Trigger | Replacement |
|---|
| ”my email” | john@example.com |
| ”my phone” | (555) 123-4567 |
| ”my address” | 123 Main St, Anytown, CA 90210 |
Common responses
| Trigger | Replacement |
|---|
| ”standard reply” | Thanks for reaching out! I'll review this and get back to you by end of day. |
| ”out of office” | I'm currently out of the office and will return on Monday. For urgent matters, please contact support@example.com. |
Code snippets
| Trigger | Replacement |
|---|
| ”console log” | console.log() |
| ”import react” | import React from 'react'; |
The “literal” escape
If you want to say a trigger phrase without it expanding, say “literal” before the trigger:
You say: “literal my email”
Scout types: my email
The “literal” escape only suppresses the immediately following trigger — your next dictation works normally.
How matching works
- Exact matching — Triggers must match exactly (case-insensitive). Paraphrasing won’t work.
- Triggers must be at least 2 words.
- Longest match wins — If you have overlapping triggers (“my email” and “my email address”), the longer one takes priority.
- Trailing punctuation preserved — If you say “my email period,” the replacement gets the period appended.
- No voice command conflicts — Triggers that exactly match a built-in voice command phrase are rejected when you create them.
