Offline voice commands

Ok - so after a lot of testing and using both LES1 and Thor - I can confirm that voice typing works fine as I showed Mr Ticks so he could make that video.

BUT - no voice control Off-Line outside of typing in apps like messages or similar.

Works ok with a sim card in using Google voice search but not off-line.

After talking with the firmware makers it seems that this is a limitation due to the very small version of G-Apps they use. (Google core services)

There is a beta app from Google which have yet to try but I will link it here www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-voice/google-voice-5-0-144897884-release/google-voice-5-0-144897884-android-apk-download/

That page has five bumps.
Hmm, what are the incremental new features ?

Or did it bloat up to a degree to make it un-runnable on our watches ?

Are they going to fix this or not?

Only time will tell. It would mean a lot more google services which Google will not be happy about or support at all.
Independent third party apps would be better
