#32444 — Has anyone implemented voice input for html fancy FORM?

When a user is on smartphone or iPhone and you have a fancy html FORM (a long form), it makes more sense to have the user to use voice input for the FORM. I wonder if any of you have used some sort of high quality open source voice recognition software together with JavaScript to make it happen?

Thanks.

If you're using a modern phone, it's irrelevant. Just use the native speech to text functionality. Should be near invisible and irrelevant for you.

Possibly related and interesting:

Interesting.  I tried the link, which brought me to a demo site,
https://github.com/mdn/web-speech-api/
So, I tried it with my smartphone (Samsung with Android 4.1.2), 
Under Settings, I checked out Language and Input,
then, Text-to-speech,
tried the "Listen to an example", it worked.
But that github speed page not working, err msg: no speech
Is it that my phone is not configured properly or?

Thanks.

With the SpeechRecognition functionality, I don't know as I haven't tried it myself. Remember that this is very much a new thing and probably broken in many ways or unsupported/flagged in current browsers <http://caniuse.com/#feat=speech-recognition>

Since you have a phone similar to mine, you might already have Google Voice Typing installed. Just click on some text box so your keyboard appears, then swipe down on your screen and choose "Select keyboard" to see if the option is there. If it's missing, you could probably just install it from the Play Store.

Yeah, you're right.  Google Voice typing is available but sort of fuzzy, that is, not smooth.  Thanks.
