CTOnews.com, Aug. 17 (Xinhua) paraplegic activist Colin Hughes (Colin Hughes) recently published a column on the The Register platform, criticizing Apple's voice control (Voice Control) function has lagged far behind, saying that Apple has almost "forgotten" this auxiliary function.

Through the "voice control" function, users can use voice to tap, scan, type and other operations in order to browse and interact with the device.

In the article, Colin Hughes starts with his own experience and that of others, saying that voice control is a necessity. CTOnews.com translates as follows:

For people with severe disabilities, voice control is not a common application, but a heavily dependent necessity.

Take myself, for example, I need to dictate the content clearly through voice control, which determines every aspect of my life.

However, the current experience of voice control is not good, although you can customize the vocabulary, but later when you dictate these proper nouns, "voice control" always ignores the uppercase letters in the sentence.

In addition, there are many problems in the handling of proper nouns, and the verb "will" is often mistaken for "Will" in phonetic control. Similarly, when it comes to a fiery red sphere in the sky, the app may mistakenly identify it as the British tabloid Sun.

Ian Gilman, another disabled user, said that Siri can be widely used in any application, while the voice control function is relatively narrow.

Hughes believes that Apple's voice control has lagged behind Google, Nuance's Dragon Dictate and many other companies.

Hughes said that after trying out the Google Project Relate app on Pixel phones, he found that it was more accurate and personalized in speech recognition.

And even when he wears a ventilator and the environment is a little noisy, the Google Project Relate app can still accurately dictate his dictation.

The article calls on Apple to invest more resources in voice control and to cooperate more fully with disabled communities.
