Android Central Question

On my S7 I used to be able to tap on a word or phrase after dictating some voice to text and the interface would offer alternate suggestions/corrections for parts of the dictation that it got wrong. On the S9, it just dictates, creates the voice to text and then if you want to make changes, you have to manually go back in and edit/type. Is there any way to still tap and make these easy/quick suggested corrections?
 
That depends on the STT engine (and I'm not familiar with the one in the S9, but try things like (in this post I'd do) "before engine" and see if that moves the cursor. Or "go to before engine". Or things like "period", "paragraph", "delete word after engine". If there are no online lists (and I can't find any for the s9), you have to experiment. (And you may find that not much works, and you have to use a keyboard with arrows (like SwiftKey Keyboard) or just move the cursor by tapping where you want it.
