Siri and Voice to text don’t work!

im very frustrated as Siri and Dictation won’t work all of a sudden.


I have gone through all the steps of updating my software, turning Siri on and off, turning dictation on and off, deleting and reestablishing the keyboard, tested all the mics on video, audio memos and phone calls without issue, cleaned it, there are no screen time restrictions on the phone, connection is good, I forget my device for my AirPods and reconnected…restarted a bunch of times….nothing fixes it. When I test Siri when I turn it back on, the phone hears me just fine and gives me the check marks.


Siri bubble appears after saying Hey Siri but never finds anything I ask. Just tells me to wait one second, but nothing happens.


Dictation the same. I use voice to text a lot, but it doesn’t work on any app. Hence the frustration.


any ideas???

What about just keeping it on the UK or CANADA Language and trying again with the other language still left on?
