After I updated to iOS 15.6, I used the memo voice dictation function as usual, the audio was still playing, but the voice dictation stopped immediately after a minute. What can I do to solve the problem?
iPad Pro, iPadOS 15
Same for me.
After updating to iOS 15.6, my iPhone 12 will not provide continuous speech-to-text dictation. It cuts off at around 1 minute and 40 seconds, consistently, whether I’m on WIFI or cellular.
What it seems to be doing is right at 1:40, text starts disappearing as if Siri is re-interpreting what I wrote, it puts in its replacement text, and then it stops dictating.
I just tested this with airplane mode on. It listened for 1:26 and then shut off and stopped listening.
So far I have tried disabling Hey Siri, all Siri settings, and Settings > General > Keyboard > Enable Dictation, deleting my Siri history… then restarted my phone.
No matter if it’s in airplane mode, WiFi, or cellular, Siri will not continue dictating in the Notes app for more than 1:40, and it shuts off sometimes earlier than that.
I don’t need a link to contact Apple Support (I was a ten year Apple employee), I am simply chiming in that I have this issue as well.
Very frustrating, glad to see I’m not alone.
Having worked as an Apple Support specialist, I know what advice I'm going to receive. From what I'm seeing, the normal routine advice isn't fixing this issue. I see that others are experiencing the same thing, so this looks like a bug and I'm reporting it via apple.com/feedback.
It's definitely annoying, it's definitely ruined the workflow I had been following where I used Notes and dictation to get all my thoughts out on my way to work. It made me very productive on my 20 minute drive to work.
Greetings elnid,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. For this particular issue, we suggest getting in touch with Apple Support for additional assistance:
Take care and stay safe.
Even contacting Apple Support was not helpful.😭They asked me to restore all setting, the issue is still there. All I can do is waiting for the next upgrade.
