Speech Recognition for Android Wear-OS App

I've built a voice-driven android app that uses the android speech recognition API. I'm currently trying to convert the app to a wear-os version. I've included the speech recognition permission in the apps manifest and have initialized the speech recognition instance the same as I have in the mobile app (which works!). The app launches well, however when I begin the speech recognition I get the following error: E/SpeechRecognizer: no selected voice recognition service

I've tested on both a physical Galaxy 5 watch, and an API 30 wear-os emulator and the problem occurs with both devices. I've installed google assistant on the devices, and google assistants voice recognition works well. I can't find and voice input / speech recognition settings on the app. I'm not sure what next steps to take in debugging this.

This worked for me when using speech recognition on Android 11 in Wear OS:

   private fun checkPermissions() {
        if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, 
        Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO) != 
        PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(
                this,
                arrayOf(Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO),
                REQUEST_MICROPHONE_PERMISSION
            )
        }
    }

   @Deprecated("Deprecated in Java")
   override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, 
     data: Intent?) {
     super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)

    if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_SPEECH_INPUT && resultCode == 
    Activity.RESULT_OK && data != null) {
        val results = 
       data.getStringArrayListExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_RESULTS)
        val spokenText = results?.firstOrNull()

        spokenText?.let {
            sendRequest(it)
        }
    }
}

   @SuppressLint("SetTextI18n", "InflateParams")
   override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
   super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

    if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(
            this,
            Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO
        ) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
    ) {
        checkPermissions()
    }


  val voiceButton = findViewById<ImageButton>(R.id.voiceButton)

    voiceButton.setOnClickListener {
        val intent = Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH)

        // on below line we are passing language model
        // and model free form in our intent
        intent.putExtra(
            RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
            RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM
        )

        // on below line we are passing our
        // language as a default language.
        intent.putExtra(
         RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, "en-US"
        )

        // on below line we are specifying a prompt
        // message as speak to text on below line.
        intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_PROMPT, "Speak to 
        text")


        try {
            startActivityForResult(intent, 
            REQUEST_CODE_SPEECH_INPUT)
        } catch (e: Exception) {
            // on below line we are displaying error message in 
            toast
            Toast
                .makeText(
                    this@MainActivity, " " + e.message,
                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT
                )
                .show()
         }
      }

Changes to SpeechRecognition in API Level 30

I have the same problem: Testing it on an android 30 emulator prints "no selected voice recognition service". However, testing it on an emulator running API version 28 works just fine.

I asked for user permission and specified an intent in the "queries"-Part of AndroidManifest.xml it still doesnt work. It seems to be an API Problem.

This answer helped me
