Hey guys, I am new to Thunkable. I am creating a small page that use speech to text and while certain words are saying some text is written to the second text input which called SpeechLabel.  
The words from the speech to text are written in RecordedLabel. For some reason it dosen’t work and I tried many things. I do get the speech to text words to apper in RecordedLabel but nothing on SpeechLabel.  
I will add a photo.

Thank’s for the help.

Welcome to Thunkable.

I see that you are using the `Hint` instead of `Text` of both labels. Any reason for that?

Hey @muneer thanks for replaying. I followed a youtube tutorial and they used Hint, but I tried with text to and it didn’t work. Any suggestions?

Hey  
Can you send us a copy of your project?  
Did you test it on a phone device?

Hey @ioannisroungeris thank’s for replaying. I managed to fix it by puting the “if” statments inside the block of the speech to text it self. I have another question, is there a way to make the speech recognition listening time more then like one second as it is as default? thank’s for your help!

If you want to delay an action you can use the control block before your action for example before the block “set RecordedLabel’s Hint to recognized speech n English”
