Live Transcribe is a new accessibility service built by Google for the deaf and hard of hearing. Using Google's state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition technology, Live Transcribe performs real-time transcription of speech to text on your screen, so you can participate in conversations going on in the world around you.
I speak English, Greek and German. In English and German I can enjoy fantastic auto punctuation that actually makes me wonder why it isn't built into Google keyboard's voice recognition (the tech is clearly there). That amazing feature is unfortunately not available in Greek. my big issue with this is that I cannot copy the text in order to paste it into another app. I understand that it is meant to transcribe speech live but what's the harm in adding the ability to copy text?
