RadSpeechToTextButton use speech capabilities of device while offline?

[Robbe]

I saw where the community toolkit had microphone to textbox wired up to use the local speech capabilities for capturing speech to text.  My app will work largely completely disconnected from a network of any kind.  Am I stuck with disabling the microphone when this occurs?

Hi Robbe,

Currently, the SpeechToTextButton does not provide offline support built-in. So, I have logged this request as a feature request on your behalf here: https://feedback.telerik.com/maui/1697737-speechtotextbutton-provide-offline-support.

As a solution, you can use a custom speech recognizer. I have attached a demo project. Download and check on your side. Note that this is a custom solution and you may need to extend it further to match the exact scenario you have. 

Regards,
