Lichess Voice Recognition Beta

Hello,

This application can simplify games of blind people with voices ? Can they try ?

It's a different site, you can make a random throwaway account.
I noticed that, at least playing on mobile, when you turn on the speech function so that you can hear the moves that the other player (or computer) responds with, it is pretty buggy. The voice recognition turns off and you have to reload the page. For my use case (blindfold chess) it would be nice to be able to use the speech function in tandem with voice recognition. Possibly a good feature to add would be a voice command to ask it to repeat the last move the opponent played in case you missed or misheard it the first time? I really love this feature though, thank you so much for making it and constantly improving Lichess :)

yea that's right, though i yelled, i whispered & i SPOKE slowly & quickly & spoke deeply & with high pitch & still not responsive,,, weeew & my background was quiet like am deep under water...
It can’t recognize the phrase “en passant really well” it thought I said “offer resign” which would’ve been pretty bad XD. Also it’s a little strange with the pawn moves having to say pawn for every one

> Does mic recording otherwise work on your computer? Is your mic built-in or external/usb?
mmm it seems that works with Chrome. Is an builtin (is a notebook).

And i dont speak english, it is weird when i say "d" for d1,d2,d3,d whatever... almost always "thinks" im saying "the"... i never notice something special in the pronunciation of "D", but it seems it is a tricky letter.
