VOICE CONTROL FAILED TO DOWNLOAD NECESSARY FILES

I have been unable to use my voice to text dictation since I did the iOS upgrade. Now I'm getting this error message which I believe is explaining what's happening but how do I fix it?

Hi there MrsKBE,


We're happy to help with Voice Control on your iPhone. To start, let's follow these steps to attempt to complete the download again:


How to turn on Voice Control
1. Go to Settings and select Accessibility.
2. Select Voice Control, then select Set up Voice Control. A download will begin in the background. 
When the download is complete, a microphone  will appear in the status bar of your device that indicates that Voice Control is listening or not listening.

You'll find more information here: Use Voice Control on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Let us know how it goes.


Cheers!
