Hello Red.dwarf4ever,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities! I understand that you're wondering how you can enter a number as opposed to having the number spelled out using dictation on your iPhone. I would be happy to help.


To enter a number value, this can be done by saying "numeral" first. For instance, using the phrase "This numeral 1 works" will result in the dictated text being "This 1 works." While the following resource is for Mac, it has an overview of some different commands you can use on iOS as well:

Cheers!
