Yes, damn dictation
Now I know you're from somewhere in the world where they don't pronounce Z like zed!
Aside though, the rest of that is great dictation, what app are you using?
FUTO voice input
https://app.futo.org/fdroid/repo?fingerprint=39d47869d29cbfce4691d9f7e6946a7b6d7e6ff4883497e6e675744ecdfa6d6d
Ah, thanks!
I'm using Sayboard which integrates well with Heliboard, but has lower quality than yours it seems. Its properly FOSS though, unlike Futo apps.
Going to have a look at sayboard now. I'm not after a full keyboard or anything. I just need the dictation because I use the keyboard that comes with lineage or graphene, which I believe is just the AOSP keyboard.
Edit: okay i am giving it a try so far it seems like it works well enough but i definitely wish it had a tone to let you know that the recording had started. It also appears to not work every time like it should. Also i don't seem to be able to find a space bar in order to dictate a new sentence once i'm done with one which is somewhat irritating
