Hi, I use voice dictation all the time and constantly run into two issues about which I've wondered whether others also experience? First, I notice anything voice dictated automatically adds an indented space, as you can see in this very post. Secondly, and this might be specific to the Facebook app or Facebook site accessed via safari - very often when I've entered something with voice dictation, I can then not manually edit the text. It takes several iterations of highlighting text, cutting it, pressing any key, trying to gain access to being able to type again.

Has anyone else noticed or experienced this?

Last - has it seemed that voice dictation's ability to work has decreased? I understand Apple "drags down" voice dictation's speediness/behavior by having to listen/process things via cellular or wifi, but I notice no such lag or stalling or non-working when entering text via voice dictation in a google app such as Maps. Seems iOS voice dictation cooperates a bit less than say google's lately. Anyone else notice that or no difference at all?

Thx!!
