I decided to place this post here and hope as well that people from Code Factory will have a look.

An Icelandic speech recognition has been launched by Google some time ago. It works well as a search tool with Google Search. Some work still needs to be done in order to make it fit as a writing tool for emails and SMS.

The google engine together with the virtual keyboard needs to be set up outside Talkback, so sighted assistance will be needed. When configuring the keybord, i.e. the Samsung keyboard, in order to activate the speech engine together with the keyboard, it is not possible to use the MA-keyboard any more with SMS. Actually MA freezes when SMS is selected. But MA as a screen reader with Talkback is well functioning.

An other thing with the MA keyboard: When moving fingers around to find the character to be typed, it is sometimes as the characters are moving around and it seems to be difficult to find the one you are looking for. Are there anyones having this experience?

Best regards,

Arnthor Helgason
