Is this new or a bug? I remember that someone asked in the old forum how we can start the voice recognition directly. The answer was that we must give the method an empty list of suggestions and the allowedInputMode must be set to plain.

But now this doesnt work anymore. I see this also in other apps that were build with the old WatchKit SDK running on an Apple Watch with the new Watch OS 2.0

When you make a call now to presentTextInputControllerWithSuggestions with these parameters you will only see a cancel button in the lower left corner but the voice input doesnt start. I hope this is not working as intended.

This is the same behavior I'm seeing. Please post your radar number so I can dupe it.

Thanks!

I will file a bug report tomorrow morning with a small Xcode project. The presentTextInputControllerWithSuggestion method seems to be totally broken. It is not only this bug. When you give the method suggestions and even the attached actions do nothing it will crash.

I have submitted the same issue and got Bug Number 21772462. I also get error message when debugging - in log output - even though I am on the hardware watch (not simulator):

I filed a bug with the number 21790723

There is a small demo project attached where you can test the problem with the text input controller. The bug still exists in beta 3.
