iOS (10) has a speech-recognition-based dictation feature. You press a little microphone button, start talking, and it transcribes your speech into text. Commands I currently know:
- "new paragraph"
- "comma"
- "period"
- "hyphen"
- "dash"
- "colon"
- "semicolon"
- "open/closed bracket"
- "open/closed curly brace"
- "open/closed parenthesis"
However, I do not know voice commands for:
- backspace/delete
- undo/redo
- cycle between alternate options for a word
Please help.
Also, if possible, please let me know how to:
- prevent dictation mode from automatically turning off
- convert pre-recorded audio to text using speech recognition

One command that isn't on the list yet:
• "quote" will give you a space then " • "end quote" will give you a " then space
In other words, say quote at the beginning of a quote and the following text will follow the "like this with no space, and saying end quote will put the quote marks right after the word like this" with no space before the quote. Saying quote again at the end will put a space before it like "this and put it in the wrong spot.
