Hi!
I wouldn't know about English but dictating in Croatian could be
better. I'll try some tips suggested bellow but, from my experience
Google Voice Input works far better for my language than Siri
Dictation.
Besides, it's not just the matter of understanding dictated speech,
it is also about he size and complexity of used dictionary. If the
dictation doesn't have some words and phrases in there it can't type
it down and my opinion is Google did a better job with it.
On the other hand when I dictate in my iPhone I can dictate
punctuation and it is displayed as punctuation. When using Google
Voice this is still not supported for my mothertongue so...
It is best to try it out for yourself.


  S poštovanjem

I assume you are talking about dictating in English? I am just curious as to 
whether you are a native English speaker and if so, are you from the US or from 
England or another country? If from the States, doo you have a strong dialect? 
I personally find dictation for the most part works quite well, but I did 
notice that results are almost always slightly worse if you use a Bluetooth 
headset. It works best with just the phone or with the Earpods.

Regards,
Sieghard

Re: siri dictation ulternitive?

2016-07-06 Thread englishrider91 
Before you go looking for alternatives, I'd like to point out something that 
you might not know about. I don't know how far this goes back in the 
generations of iPhones, but since I got my new 6S, i've noticed that I get much 
better dictation results when I talk near the earpiece part of the iPhone, 
rather than the bottom, near the speaker, like I used to do with my old iPhone 
4S. Since then, my dictation has improved beyond all recognition. I remember 
hearing somewhere that the microphone placement had changed. I think it was in 
a podcast by a guy named Neil, who was testing all the different iPhone Mike's 
with and without the processing that Apple puts on them. Anyway, just thought 
I'd let you know about my discovery.


Thanks,
Ari
