Many cell-phone handsets have basic dial-by-voice features built in. Smartphones such as iPhones and BlackBerrys also support this. A number of third-party apps have implemented natural-language speech-recognition support, including:
Continuous Speech Recognition on premise. Multi channel ready for 8 kHz, 16 kHz and 32 kHz. Contains Deep Neural Networks and Natural Languages capabilities. English, Spanish, Japanise, French, Portuguese and Catalan
The Windows Speech Recognition version 8.0 by Microsoft comes built into Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.
Speech Recognition is available only in English, French, Spanish, German, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese and only in the corresponding version of Windows; meaning you cannot use the speech recognition engine in one language if you use a version of Windows in another language. Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows 8 Pro allow you to change the system language, and therefore change which speech engine is available. Windows Speech Recognition evolved into Cortana (software), a personal assistant found in Windows 10.
Add-ons for Windows 7 speech recognition
