    Google Voice Typing now inserts punctuation, and too frequently

    I was a transcriptionist for two years and heard thousands on thousands of samples from hundreds of exemplars. Literally every one of them had extensive pauses, including dozens who'd been dictating for decades. This is not a public speaking exercise, this is a bug. OP and rich_lux, try...

    Recent problems with S9 dictation

    It looks like they're making advances in understanding speech to text. A little more work and they'll have it right but it's just not ready yet. Thanks again for all the help.

    Recent problems with S9 dictation

    No change after making sure the mic was clear. Uninstalling the Google app updates helped significantly. Capitalization is still a bit off but I've always had that problem. I don't see any random punctuation popping up during dictation no matter how long I pause.

    That took me to the same place I was before. I'd already cleared data/cache for Google text to speech and force quit so no additional changes there. I did the same thing for Samsung keyboard but the force stop button never dimmed. When I went to test dictation in a message it ran through a...

    Recent problems with S9 dictation

    I use dictation heavily in my work. A few days ago I noticed the overall functionality of the voice-to-text feature on my S9 took a nosedive. It's randomly inserting commas and the briefest of speech pauses results in a period. It's also peppering the resulting text with oddly placed capital...
