    What is this app called, and where is the setting to not auto-add punctuation?

    Thanks, That got it back to Green Icon but I'm not seeing the option to uncheck the box "Enable auto update" My Android Version is 6.0.1 Possibly you're on a newer Android version? Thanks!

    What is this app called, and where is the setting to not auto-add punctuation?

    mustang7757 There's been a change in the way Google updates and I can't seem to find a way to keep the old Google Text to Speech (Green Circle ) from getting updated to the new one ( Blue Circle ) Have you noticed and maybe you have more advice on how to stop it from auto updating? Now, I...

    Android > Google Text to Speech or Google voice > How to Repair!

    Original fix told to me by mustang7757 ( on 02-06-2020 ) Just passing it along again because Google broke it again today. If your (Android) text to speech or Google Voice gets screwed up as like it all of the sudden won't do punctuation or "new paragraph" or any other verbal commands that it...

    What is this app called, and where is the setting to not auto-add punctuation?

    Hi there, I can't really discover what this app is really called? (see photo) Can someone tell me it's name? Also, It used to work perfectly, letting me vocally add punctuation by saying the correct command like "question mark" or "period" but now it's guessing where to punctuate and adding...

    Google Maps - Downloading Off Line Maps for directions when offline?

    Hi there, I've got most of it figured out but just wanted to ask, Q: When downloading an off line map with the intent of using it later for in-car navigation to a location, is it necessary to zoom out to be able to see my starting point also? It just seems logical but wanted to check to make...

    Setting Default Video App?

    Selecting Gallery doesn't work. It just shows some kind of 'failed to play' notification. Google Photos just shows a still shot. I didn't try firefox or the Samsung print service. Once it's in the Gallery, then yes, it's playable and launches the default video player shown in the screenshot...

    Screen Mirror G900A and G900V to Roku?

    Well it was 'almost' exactly the same on both. I was able to add Screen Mirroring to my Quick Settings on the G900A but the G900V doesn't even show it as an option to add to Quick settings. I've seen a few other differences so I'd not call them the same. Same hardware but different Verizon vs...
