Using Voice Command to rename Photoshop layers?

Hey everyone, When using photoshop, I find it time consuming renaming my layers. I’m using a Mac, and I’m aware of the voice control option underneath Accessibility. Is there anyway to utilize this so I can speak into my Mac and change the layer name while I have it selected so I don’t have to type it? Or if voice control doesn’t work, are there any external plugins I could use to accomplish this?Any help would be much appreciated!

You can always use Apple Voice Control to dictate text input.

@Matthew Buzz not being snarky, but I turned on Voice Control to send you this reply. The same method applies to naming layers. You are correct that without some advanced management you still need to click to edit the text field in the layer name, but this would work to enter the text.
