I have iPhone 11 Pro Max.. anyway my dictation in messages worked and then it didn’t. It would pop up when I tried to use it but nothing happened.


not sure if this will work for anyone else, but I went into the keyboard settings and disabled it, then enabled it again. And it’s been working since.

Good evening: Since my phone (iPhone 11 Pro Max) was actualized to IOS 17.3 , I have not been able to send voice messages. I use them daily x my work, so this is a very negative situation for me. I agree that instead of blaming users, or giving us directions that don’t fix the problem, I hope that Apple should find a way to FIX IT! There must be a glitch on your IOS 17.3 . I hope someone from APPLE will listen to all your users complains about this subject! Thanks

14 Pro Max: After updating to 17.4, all speech to text dictation stopped working. I’m visually impaired thusly typing takes strain and effort; this is unsatisfactory. Siri works. I’ve tried every canned response given, and looking through support forums and online there is definitely an issue.


17.3 I noticed speech to text acting iffy, like cutting you off before your done speaking.


BTW, this took me 15 minutes to write, thanks Apple. This Accessibility issue needs to be addressed ASAP. Otherwise, what’s the point?
