Since the update to iOS 17 the voice dictation on my iPad 6th gen is very slow. It lags several sentences behind and even when I tap the microphone icon to stop it, it needs another five to ten seconds to finish the text. The longer the text, the longer the time to finish the text. All was fine before the update. Have you experienced the same?

The speed is okay on my iPhone 12 but not on my iPad. I have just experienced that it is faster when I dictate in English. My mother tongue is German, though. If I switch the keyboard back to German the dictation speed is dead slow. It lags behind four or five sentences even when I speak slowly.

As I wrote, I don‘t have the issue on my iPhone but on my iPad.

I also experience a slight lag while typing on my iPhone. It was definitely smoother before the upgrade. Dictation is normal on the iPhone, though. When I switch to English everything is fine. I guess it has something to do with the new auto correction, although this is said not to be active for German, yet. The voice dictation lag is also there for French. Only English is quick and smooth.
But has the accuracy changed at all?
No, it is just incredibly slow. I am going to reset the iPad and set it up as a fresh device in a few days. I need the dictation function very often and the current situation is unbearable.
I wiped the iPad and set it up as a new device. Dictation was good for the first two times but now it is slow again. It is only the case for other languages than English (e.g. German and French). It seems to be a bug in iPad OS 17.
