I just got the Apple Watch yesterday and I have noticed that there is an error with dictation. It will be working just fine and then all of a sudden stop.. and I get that error. Then it starts working like 5 min later. And stop randomly. I have done the resetting both devices. And it will come back on only to do the same thing later. I just moved to Apple and this is quite frustrating. :/ do I a faulty watch?? Help :(
Dictation is part of Siri. If Siri is having issues using your wi-fi network, dictation could also be effected.
Two troubleshooting steps are:
• Power off the watch and then the iPhone. Next, Turn on the iPhone first followed by the watch. This sequence of shutting down and turning on the devices sometimes can fix a lot of issues including the dictation feature.
• Force restarting the Apple Watch can be helpful. Press and hold both the side button and the Digital crown until you see the Apple logo. Let the watch start up on its own and then you can check if you are still experiencing tech issues on the watch.
Beyond that, try dictation using a different wi-fi network. Or contact Apple.
