Bill, iOS supports local notifications (as supposed to remote notifications) that work even if the app that created them is no longer running. See: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/Chapters/WhatAreRemoteNotif.html Basic

My own opinion is that the speech to text field is still in flux but the gold standard is Dragon. Apple's tech got better with Siri, but she still screwed up a lot. Dragon 6's new tech with a LOT of AI can do a very high rate of accuracy with very little or NO training, and it seems to transcribe

Wondering about iOS background tasks

2016-10-03 Thread William Prothero
Folks: My currently finished app needs to run continuously, as it must play a series of audio files. I found that, in iOS, audio will play when the app goes to the background, but the app is only completing the current audio file and the next one isn’t loaded, because the app isn’t really runnin

In my experience on Android at least, a LiveCode field or a native field will invoke the popup keyboard. So touching the microphone icon on the keyboard converts speech to text into the focussed field. It just works. Other platforms... I haven't tried. ~Roger On Mon, Oct 3, 2016 at 10:10 AM,

After you sent it, I uploaded a sample of what the camera would see. I was disappointed in the results, so I'm worried that that solution is going to be a problem. We would have to grab the image, upload it, see if the OCR passes a sanity test, and if it doesn't, take and upload another image, et
