# Voice for Android Ellipsis Remains in Dictation Transcript

**Issue:**

An ellipsis (**...**) appears in my finalized transcript after the dictation ends. ![ellipsis-in-transcript](https://cdn.us.document360.io/03b5534a-5f9a-42ce-852d-08bf09105da4/Images/Documentation/ellipsis-in-transcript.png)

The ellipsis should not be part of your finalized transcript, but there are a few things that cause it to remain, such as:

- Tapping on a new form field or text area while dictation is in progress
- Using the Save or Discard button on the PointCare application while dictation is in progress
- Rotating the device screen from portrait to landscape view (or vice versa) while dictation is in progress

**What to do:**

- Always end your dictation by tapping the microphone button on the keyboard.
- Do not tap buttons in another application or into a new form field or text area while Mobile Voice is recording.
- Hold your mobile device at a consistent angle while recording your dictation.
