    speech to text

    That was rather cryptic but by searching on keyboard instead of text to speech in the user manual I was able to find references to "Google Voice Typing" and "Voice input" and see that it claims to be possible. How is it "not like a phone that has speech to text", other than needing to use other...

    speech to text

    I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A. I can find nothing in the user manual about speech to text and nothing about speech to text on any Android tablet under several general web searches using various search parameters. Where do you find speech to text on the Tab A? I would greatly appreciate a step...

    speech to text

    Speech to text (as used for e-mail and text messaging) is common on Android phones but I find nothing for Android tablets. Doing e-mail from a Anfroid tablet is simple enough and more than a few people like to talk their e-mail content rather than type it. Is there any basic reason speech to...

    Play Store scam?

    That was my previous experience. This time the card may not have been "registered" for on-line use in the latest format. It used to require only a zip code to be accepted for on-line purchases, and before that nothing at all, but now registration requires a name and some address beyond a zip...

    Play Store scam?

    An e-mail with address payments-noreply@google.com so it is most likely from google. The notice in playstore was presented when I entered the card info, refusing to do anything further until I provided all the information. However, I have since downloaded something that did not have a cost and...

    data download rate

    "It" being the software suggest above? It is very easy to find at the play store and possibly at apkmirror.com and/or Apkpure.com

    data download rate

    I can’t tell from the description on the Play Store whether or not that utility will give me useful information. I need to be able to see the download rate moment to moment as the download is occurring. I guess I should be able to install it and see what it does. Then, if it does provide the...

    data download rate

    The reason I need this is to make it possible to differentiate between me cell phone carrier’s actions and Amazon Prime actions. If I can monitor download rate on an Android tablet connected to some WiFi not related to my phone carrier, I should be able to tell which of the two are responsible...

    data download rate

    Is there any way to see a real time, moment to moment download rate (Mbps) of data on an Android device? A graph of rate over a period of time would be nice but just the current number, updated frequently, would be useful.

    Amazon Prime download not right

    Here is what I’ve found so far. Remember, this entire discussion is ONLY about when there are no major restrictions (high traffic, signal interference, etc) on the basic cell phone signal At best, my phone tests above 60Mbps, at worse, less than 1Mbps. I learned very early not to bother with...

    Amazon Prime download not right

    I would like to test downloading some other files, not from Amazon, that are 400MB or larger (single file, not a series of smaller files) but I don't know where to find any. And, I bet your cellphone provider doesn't limit your mobil hotspot speed to 5Mbps. Without that contract provision I...

    Amazon Prime download not right

    The carrier does not provide any content, only cell phone service. They told me they do not reduce speed . Of course heavy traffic, signal interference, etc. may reduce speed, and sometimes does, but that is not the problem with video downloads. I can measure to find out when the bandwidth is...

    Amazon Prime download not right

    I used to read public library books on a Android table. It was nice in various ways. Checkout was for three weeks. Everything worked nicely for a long time. I could read wherever I wanted to go, no internet connect needed after the download. Then they got more paranoid,; I don't know how it...

    Amazon Prime download not right

    This is DRM stuff. I can't even find the downloaded files on either my Windows computer or my phone.
