Offline dictation not available after software updates on iPhone and iPad

I have noticed that after each software update (the last, to iOS 17.4.1.) the offline dictation is not more available, but only the online dictation without the new functionality that allows the user to tipe on the virtual keyboard and dictate at the same time. With the preview updates the offline dictation returned after some time, I hope that also this time the problem will be resolve soon, but I want to know the causes of this problem. Thank you

Hi, I have then solved the problem: I have discovered why offline dictation is not available after an operating system upgrade: you simply should re-download the elements necessary to the on-device elaboration of the vocal input, on Settings<Siri and search, by connecting your device to a Wi-Fi hotspot.

Scuse me for my imperfect English
