speech recognition service is not available on system on Android 11 Beta

[rksoni31895]

I am Getting speech recognition service is not available on system on latest android 11 beta. I am using: Ionic version 4. Ionic webview version: 4.2.0. Cordova-android: 9.0.0

My Target sdk version: 30

In older version of android speech recognition is working as expected.

you should check, if the "Google App" play.google.com/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox is installed:
on most Android systems I've come across, the default/system speech recognition engine is the one that is provided by that app (and since this cordova plugin relies on the system's engine, at least one must be installed)

I have this app installed on my phone but am still getting this error. Is there anything else that I could try?

In Android 11 the connection to the voice recognition service must be done manually (https://developer.android.com/training/basics/intents/package-visibility-use-cases). Adding next code in AndroidManifest.xml worked for me:

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

@dteso That idea sounds amazing, how can I add this to my AndroidManifest.xml, if 'cordova platform add' build by himself the android folder?

@secretmoo35 you did it?

AndroidManifest

Add this code in file "config.xml"

<platform name="android">
...
...
<config-file parent="/manifest" target="AndroidManifest.xml" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
            <queries>
                <intent>
                    <action android:name="android.speech.RecognitionService" />
                </intent>
            </queries>
</config-file>
</platform>
