    • If you have shortcut folders, tap on a folder to view shortcuts inside, then tap a shortcut name to insert text. 
    • About the Shortcut Menu
      • The shortcut menu(s) include only Insert Text shortcuts.
      • Shortcuts added or changed in nVoq.Administrator are updated in Mobile Voice when you re-open the shortcut menu.
      • If a shortcut with the same name exists at multiple organization levels, only the lower organization level shortcut will appear in Mobile Voice. For example, if a shortcut named "fall prevention" exists at the tenant level and also at the group level, you will only see the group level shortcut.
      • Likewise, if a shortcut with the same name exists as an organization shortcut and as an account shortcut, only the account shortcut will appear in Mobile Voice (as long as you have the ability to see User shortcuts). If you cannot see User shortcuts in Mobile Voice, you will not see either the account shortcut or the organization shortcut with that name.
      • If User shortcuts are enabled in Mobile Voice you can create your own shortcuts. See Manage Shortcuts.
