You can use Voice Control to access all of the core design features of XD, including drawing tools, layers, properties in the Property Inspector, and the XD application menus. Once you’re set-up, you can say “Open XD” and let your creativity flow! To use Voice Control with Adobe XD, you’ll need to enable Voice Control in the Accessibility section in your System Preferences for macOS Catalina and update to the latest version of Adobe XD.

Innovative technologies like Voice Control help us enable an entirely new group of creatives like never before, some of whom may have not previously had the opportunity to express their creativity with existing tools. The February 2020 release of Adobe XD adds improved accessibility support with enhanced labeling, which gives users of Apple’s Voice Control technology access to Adobe XD features. That’s why, today, we’re extending that vision to Adobe XD with support for Voice Control on macOS. With Voice Control, people have a whole new way to navigate and interact with software, and this can be particularly empowering for people with physical or motor disabilities that have difficulty interacting using their hands.Īt Adobe, we’re always looking for new ways to enable creativity for all and empower creatives of all backgrounds, experience levels, and abilities to make incredible things with our products. One of the most exciting progressions in human-computer interaction is the introduction of Voice Control in macOS Catalina, which allows users to control their Mac using just dictation and voice commands instead of other inputs like touching, tapping, or typing on their device.
