'Dictation is not supported in the WatchKit Simulator
In Apple's release notes for 8.2 beta and Xcode 6.2 beta 4, it seems that presentTextInputControllerWithSuggestions:allowedInputMode:completion: is now supported in the simulator. However whenever I run it I get this output in the log
Dictation is not supported in the WatchKit Simulator
Is this documented somewhere that the text input on the simulator is still not working? Or do I need to set something up, or install something to make this work?
Solution 1:[1]
No, as of iOS 8.2 beta 3 voice dictaction is not supported.
Solution 2:[2]
I found out that using WKTextInputModePlain for allowedInputMode gives me the error message you got, but if I'm using WKTextInputModeAllowEmoji instead, it works - all three input modes, including dictation. Weird but reproducible.
Xcode/Simulator 12.4, WatchOS 7.2.
