That's actually (sneakily) not the case. Gboard does have voice transcription, but it's triggered by pressing the microphone button at the upper right corner of the keyboard. Apple's voice transcription is still triggered from the bottom right button, even if a 3rd party keyboard is being used.

Thanks. I stand corrected.

It is confusing but it is the system (iOS) text to speech used here. You have to tap the Google logo to get Google's text to speech. https://www.cultofmac.com/469485/google-gboard-improve-ios-d...

So this is google's product on both devices? I thought this is a demonstration of apple's built-in speech-to-text vs android's built in speech-to-text.

If it's the former this is less interesting except for the observation that speed of conversion really is valuable.

You missed mwest217's reply above explaining that it is indeed Apple's speech-to-text engine being used here.

Thanks, I don’t think that comment had been posted when I asked my question.
