Snippets & Templates

Create voice-triggered shortcuts for text you use frequently.

What Are Snippets?

Snippets are voice-triggered text templates. Speak a trigger phrase and LotusQ inserts the full saved text: handy for email sign-offs, scheduling links, code boilerplate, and more.

Creating a Snippet

Open Snippets from the sidebar and click Add Snippet:

Trigger: the voice phrase that activates the snippet (e.g., "intro email")
Content: the full text to insert, as plain text (line breaks are kept)

Your snippets sync to your account, so they follow you to your other computers.

Examples

"intro email"

Hi, I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to reach out regarding...

"meeting link"

Join the meeting: https://meet.google.com/abc-defg-hij

"react component"

export default function Component() {
  return <div>Hello</div>;
}

How Matching Works

When you finish dictating, LotusQ checks your dictation against your snippet triggers (ignoring case). If the dictation is a trigger, or one of them contains the other, the snippet's content replaces the whole dictation.

Keep triggers short and unique to avoid accidental matches.
