Dictation issues on iPhone 16 Pro Max I just got a 16 pro max. The auto voice to talk dictation keeps randomly turning off and or not working. I have my dictation button on, I’ve tried nearly everything online. Nothing works. About ready to return this phone for my 12 that never had an issue… any others out there? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Dictation not working, I’ve tried everything Dictation stopped working today. It does not work in messaging or other apps but Siri and voice memos does work. I’ve toggled dictation off and on, restarted phone, reset all settings, still doesn’t work.
