I use the dictaphone mic on my phone when I can’t be arsed to type or don’t know how to spell something, I asked for ‘Cathartic’ and it come back with Star Trek, I asked it for voulevant’s it came back with Volvo Vontz, I dunno who Volvo Vontz is, but that would make a good username on here for someone. I think it’s my Devon lilt, either that or my phones deaf.

So, does your phone understand you ?

I don't give it the chance. Always type and have all autocorrection stuff turned off. The keyboard I use doesn't even have an option for voice input. I like to dumb down my smartphone.

I have the same problem with Alexa, but it’s clearly my accent I have to repeat like I’m talking to a child

Same! It's bad enough having to speak to machines on automatic call centres.

Machine: say the appliance you need help with. For example, washer, oven

Me: oven

Machine: offal?

Me: oven

Machine: other?

Me: OVEN

Machine: washer?

Me: ....... OVEN!!

Machine: we will send a repair man for your jet tub on Friday.

I hate it when I ask google home to plate a live album and pronounces “live” as “live” instead of “live”

My phone understands me perfectly well despite having a really weird accent and I've written this by talking to the phone just prove it
