Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46775504 I s*** you not, this is the shittiest silliness. ^voice to text^ It's absolutely ridiculous, but I've been able to go back and type in my horrifying profanity by hand. At least I WAS able to do that unless they've changed that too. Are they afraid we're going to offend the NSA listeners, or Queen Barack? |

You do have to wonder what that's about. They're probably the most popular words in the language. And in some communities, seemingly the only ones. |

Blitz the storm-striker User ID: 30536084 Canada 09/13/2013 04:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | apple is bad... but it's not that bad next to android... To live is to believe in the power of dreams! To dream is to believe in the power of love! To love is to Know the truth! The Desire to Be fuel the belief that you Are which ignite the Will to Become which bring back forth the desire to be... Let it be-come you! It means Stop seeking your higher self! It is seeking you! Stand still in your mind to calm the waters of your mind and then it shall find you, so you can ride those waves together! your true self lies somewhere between your heart and your consciousness. It is called the heart consciousness,which is the creator, which is you! The heart create the emotions and our mind evoke its purpose, from which we dream the life we live in order to imagine the nature of reality and finally remember love! The highest Purpose of our mind is the ability to Forget! Go on and Forgive yourself! There is no love in truth but there is truth in love! Be authentic, nobody else can do it for you! |

It still blocks after the first letter. Although..it does not filter the spoken word "shittiest"for some reason. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46775504 That's because voice goes to googles server before it returns text to you. The same goes with Apples speech to text. The recognition doesn't happen on your phone. For some reason they're censoring swear words, probably because of idiotic regulations. |

I just got my first smartphone and that surprised me when the text to voice didn't work if my connection dropped. That's when I realized that it was taking place on the net. So that means that Google records everything you are saying too. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46775504 Try adding or make sure the words you want to use are in the custom dictionary; part of this depends on the flavor of Android you are running. OR Just don't use the cuss words, you don't use that mouth to kiss your mother do you? Personally, I try to keep the profane language to a minimum but each to their own. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 43640675 United States 09/13/2013 04:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | PROTECTION FROM LIABILITY! It is not in the best interest of a phone system to potentially violate obscenity laws or create excessive civil claims by its users and/or recipients. While there are a variety of defenses for these problems, product liability attached to the hardware of the phone can complicate these defenses. Bottom line, there are more risks at play in the world for companies than you could imagine. Well, that is unless you have ran a company that does in excess of 25 mil a year or so. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 39337837 United States 09/13/2013 05:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | oh, lets see. Would i rather my fingerprints be sent to every tom dick harry, and the israeli's or a censored word on talk to text? it's no brainer for me. i dont agree with either but one is only a nuisance the other could have devastating consequences. Funny this also comes up right as Apple announces their new NSA phone. Guess samsung needs to be demonized due to all the bad press Iphone is getting. BTW, If you buy the new Iphone S, your mom should slap you right upside the f****** head. lol |

They prefer to leave the swear words out entirely. Its easier for you to type in fuck then have someone explain to their boss why they texted "Would you and your wife like to come over for dinner? I heard she just loves to fuck", when you meant duck. |
