Hold to Dictate not working

With the latest update Hold to Dictate isn’t working within any apps. When I press and hold the microphone button on the remote, a yellow dot appears near “Hold to Dictate” in app…. But then Siri pops up and tries to take over. Nothing ends up dictated to the app search box.


I’ve tried many apps, all the same.


anyone else?

It was annoying me too...then I found a post on Reddit saying it's by design! Press once and release...dictate works. Hold down, Siri pops up! Frustrating that this behaviour has changed, but press once and release now has dictation working for me again.
