You need to install Text to speech service in your phone or if already available then activate it.

I reinstalled Text to speech service, it was still not working.

I remember that 10% of the students had encountered this problem with android phones in class before, but I never encountered it until this time.

Can you check that your Android phone actually responds to OK Google?

This is the first step to see that the speech recognition is active on the device.

OK Google is ok!
Later, I used Gboard to replace Speech Recognition, but I still regret that I cannot complete all the functions on the app.

It is obvious that the issue is not Thunkable but the speech recognition service in the mobile.

You can ask a friend to test the app in a different mobile while you check how to activate the service in your device.

Because every year when teaching this unit, some students have this problem with their mobile phones. This time even my mobile phone has this problem, so I want to take this opportunity to find out the real solution.
