#G docs voice typing android#

This is how it should work on my Android devices, and pretty much how it used to work, although I'm not sure it stayed on quite that long. I tried Voice Typing in Google Docs on my Chromebook laptop, and the microphone stays on for about 23 seconds after I stop talking. I also wonder if it's some app I installed that uses the microphone, but I can't find anything so far.

I haven't yet found anyone else complaining about this happening recently. I noticed that I was asked to agree to permissions again when this problem started, and the user interface also changed, so I think that this happened because of a faulty upgrade. This degradation happened about the same time on all my Android devices where I used Voice Typing. I wonder if the speech buffer is filling up, and that's turning off the microphone, and then it stops a few seconds later because it's not hearing anything anymore. I would be able to pause from 5 to 10 seconds before continuing speaking. It never used to work like thisвЂ¦ I was able to use it very efficiently to compose writings on Google Docs. Sometimes it seems like it doesn't hear me at all after I tap 'Tap to start', or maybe just hears a few words, stops listening in the middle of a sentence, and then stops a few seconds afterwards, as though I had stopped speaking. If I paused at all, or stopped to think briefly, the microphone would shut off, and I'd have to tap it again to continue.

The microphone stayed on in listening mode for only about two to three seconds (depending on my device), unless I kept talking rapidly and unnaturally without any pauses, almost as though I were reading a book for one of those speeded up commercials. 25, 2020), my Google Voice Typing, which I use with SwiftKey (now owned by Microsoft), stopped working.
