Is it possible to use speech recognition in a device which doesn't have google voice search installed?

Question

I tried using RecognizerIntent to use speech recognition in my android app. But the target device doesn't have Google Voice search installed. Is there any other way I can use speech recognition in an Android device that doesn't have Google Voice installed.

You can try using others libraries, take a look to the next post Can CMU Sphinx be set up to recognize ~200 words . I think that maybe is you are looking for.

Answer 2

You probably first should detect if the user has installed Voice Search on his smartphone. If it doesn't, then redirect it to Google Play to download it .
