How to Implement Voice Control/Triggers for KM Macros

OK I see the issue now

Two suggestions:

(1) There are a number of ideas in this thread on how to turn voice control on/off on the Mac. It can be done via an Applescript; you can save the Applescript as an App.

With it you could use voice control on the iPhone or iPad to execute any Macro currently on Keyboard Maestro on your Mac. I suspect this is the most fail-proof solution. One of the macros you execute by voice on iOs could even be an Applescript to turn Mac voice recognition on or off.
