Speak to text dictation flaky??

[Zackmd1]

Has anyone else experienced flaky text dictation? It just started today for me.... Dictation has been working almost flawlessly for the past week. Today however, every two or so texts I try to respond to it says "Apple Watch unable to dictate". If I go into the amazon app immediately after dictation works perfect as usual. Very unusual bug to say the least.. Anyone else experience this?

I've been having that problem today with messages as well.

Interesting... Maybe a problem with Apple servers? That doesn't explain why other apps work fine though... My phone can dictate the message perfectly also.

I too have had issues intermittently. Somedays it's flawless, others it's useless. There's no in-between.

I'd noticed that on my iPhone somedays (not recently, though). Literally some days I can't make a single voice-activated call because it doesn't understand the name I'm saying. 99% of the time it's fine. I'm pretty darn certain it's Apple's end that's the issue.
