The issue you described, where everything you said was being duplicated on your iPhone due to having both dictation enabled in keyboard settings and voice control turned on in accessibility, might have occurred due to a conflict between the two features. Here's a possible explanation:
- Dictation is a feature that allows you to input text by speaking instead of typing. When you enable dictation in the keyboard settings, the system starts listening to your voice input and converts it into text. This feature is typically used when you need to input text in various applications.
- Voice Control is a more advanced accessibility feature that goes beyond just converting speech to text. It allows you to control your device entirely using your voice, enabling actions like opening apps, navigating menus, and interacting with on-screen elements through voice commands. This feature is designed to make the device accessible for individuals who may have limited physical dexterity or mobility.
The problem you experienced could have been due to the simultaneous operation of both features. When both Dictation and Voice Control are active, the system might have been interpreting your spoken words as both dictation input (resulting in text being entered wherever you're typing) and voice control commands (triggering actions and duplicating text).
To avoid this issue, you should either use Dictation or Voice Control, but not both simultaneously. If you primarily want to input text using your voice, you should disable Voice Control in accessibility settings and only use Dictation. On the other hand, if you need the full range of voice control features, you can disable Dictation in the keyboard settings.
