[Feature request] Input method

Open Unb0rn opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Dicio is now a system recognition service, however it cannot be used as an input method (like STT voice button in keyboards) For example, HeliBoard works fine with Sayboard, but voice typing button disappears if only Dicio is installed I think it would be great to have only one Vosk-based STT

You can install Kõnele, which provides an input method, and set it up to use Dicio for STT. Given the complexity of implementing an input method, and given that it's not a primary focus of Dicio, I believe it's better to create a FAQ suggesting people to install Kõnele rather than implementing the feature directly in Dicio.

Oh, got it. From the user perspective it looked like everything's already there - stt, popup window and so on - I thought it's only about registering the app differently. It's okay if it's out of scope. Thanks!
