Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well and staying safe. Currently, I have an iPhone 15 Pro running the latest version of iOS 26. I know that in text fields, when you bring up the keyboard, you can double-tap with two fingers and dictation will automatically start. For some reason, this has stopped working for me in the latest version of iOS 26. Also, I have found the location of my dictation button has changed its position in the keyboard across some apps.
Does anybody know what the problem is and how to resolve it? This is very annoying, and I would like to get this resolved as soon as possible. Thank you very much for your help everyone 😊

Have you double checked it is still turned on?
Hi Trey, maybe as part of an update the dictation setting turned itself off for some reason. You can check by going into settings, general, keyboard. There is the setting to turn it on and off. Even if showing as on maybe worth turning it off and on again then hard resetting your phone. Maybe it will work.
