You can find code on my repo [here](https://github.com/EmmanuelPil/Android-java-code-utilities-widgets-for-Processing-for-Android).

But I dont want that google’s speech recogniser box to be shown
Because I am making an app which would listen to my voice commands for opening apps etc…

Never tried. Google “Speech recognition without Google dialog boxes”. Plenty of stuff.

@Why_I_Use_Processing ====
you can do that with quite the same code but before you have to go to settings/language && input/Google voice typing/off line speech recognition

I didn’t understand what you said here, but I just want the speech recogniser not to show the google box(the white box shown while listening) and I also want it to try to listen to my words every frame, so that I can give it a command any time I want…
