iPhone Dictation not working iOS 16

Hello,


I recently upgraded to iOS 16 and since doing so my dictation has stopped working properly. It was working at first but it has stopped.


I have tried disabling/re-enabling dictation and "hey siri" and other related settings, as I read this on the internet. I would disable, perform a restart, and re-enable. This didn't seem to resolve the issue.


I also made sure I had the latest version of iOS 16 - which I do - 16.0.2 (20A380) - Not sure where to go next.

Dictation doesn't work. In any app. For anything. In any way. I cannot dictate a text. I cannot dictate a search. It's like the phone doesn't hear my voice when I press the microphone button. I can speak on the phone, but I cannot use any other voice-activated features. This started happening a week or so ago, after upgrade.


see the red circle in the photo? That's all I get. Little blue spinning circle.


What other info do you need?
