Talk back and forth

After each answer it listens again by itself, so you can just talk back. While it builds or explains something, hold fn to cut in.

  • Works on Mac only

Steps#

  1. Ask your question. It answers out loud, the words in the pill following its voice.

  2. When it's done, it listens again by itself. Answer it, or ask the next thing: there is nothing to press.

  3. You can talk over a short reply: it stops and listens to you.

Say this#

  • “What's the next step?”
  • “Wait, why does that work?”
  • “Can you show me another one?”

Cut in#

While it draws or explains something, it doesn't listen, so a sound in the room can't stop it. The pill shows Hold fn to talk.
Hold fn and talk. It stops and listens, and the pill's top edge follows your voice. Let go when you're done, and it answers what you said.

Only while you hold#

Rather it listened only while you hold the key? In the pill's settings, pick Hold to talk only under Talk.

A fresh chat#

Double-tap fn to start a fresh chat right where the pill is. To carry on an older one, open it in Sessions and press Keep going.

Point while you talk#

Hold fn and cmd and move the mouse over something while you ask about it: It sees your screen.

If it doesn't work#
