Hello Stanly,

As soon as you start typing something, the microphone should show ...... Have you tried it yet  ?

Hmm, is it possible that Google only offers voice input / speech-to-text features in the Chrome browser?

(I usually keep my microphone disabled, but even if I enable it, Google sites do not prompt for permission to use it, unlike some other sites I tested on.)

It's a speaker that appears when you start typing something, and not a microphone ......  :(
