Is speech recognition is available on Galaxy Watch 4?

Question

I try to make a voice recognition on my Galaxy Watch 4 in Kotlin language with Android Studio and it seems that it is not available on this device.

The value of SpeechRecognizer.isRecognitionAvailable(this) is False.

I have put the permission: <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />

I tried to add this:

<queries>
    <intent>
        <action android:name="android.speech.RecognitionService" />
    </intent>
</queries>

But the value of SpeechRecognizer.isRecognitionAvailable(this) is still False.

Is it possible to use voice recognition with coding or is it impossible on a Galaxy Watch 4? I read that WearOS 3 can't make voice recognition with coding. Is it true?

Answer 1

Yes, unfortunately, Wear OS 3 (which the Galaxy Watch 4 runs on) does not support direct native speech recognition.
