I have added the speech recognition component in my app but when I tried it, it keeps deleting the last word of the spoken sentence. I switched to another language, but the issue is still there. Is there anyone has tried this feature? Has it worked fine? ---

Welcome to Thunkable! Can you post a screenshot of the blocks you’re using? Without that or a link to your project, we have no idea what to suggest because you could have set it up any number of ways… ---

When I said: “Welcome to your **home** ”, it recognizes only:“Welcome you your” I don’t know why last word is always omitted. NOTE: this error doesn’t happen with first and second use, try many times please. ![WhatsApp Image 2023-10-16 at 1.40.00 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/5/c/5c835032b9f6d4b9d1d8eb6c544b3227caeb1c3b.jpeg) ---

Because you are listening partially. ---

Of course I have thought of that. But there is no difference. Anyway, thank you for your suggestion. Could you clone the app and try yourself. I would be very thankful. 😊 ---

Thanks for your help. There is no need to change the recognized language as I use the default; English ---

The problem is it stops once you stop speaking, so it might think you have stopped speaking in the middle. So [@Thunkable\_Staff](https://community.thunkable.com/groups/thunkable_staff) have to update the blocks. ---

Would be nice to be able to manually control how long of a delay there is from the last word until it stops listening. ---

I add an extra unused word to my sentence. But this is strange for other users. How can we report this issue to Thunkable developement team? ---
