Why can’t I speak to Scribe AI?

Scribe AI turns speech into text only on your device, so voice needs on-device speech recognition for your app language. The first time you speak in a language, Scribe AI may wait while your device downloads that language’s speech model. On Android, voice needs Android 12 or later with on-device speech recognition for your language. Where it isn’t available, Scribe AI opens with the keyboard instead, so you can type. Voice also needs microphone access: if you turned it off, turn on Microphone for WitnessWork in your device’s Settings. If another app is using the microphone, close it and try again. If a call or switching apps stops a recording, what Scribe AI heard waits in the message box so you can finish it and tap Send.
