Activated this phone 2 days ago, and voice to text gives me duplicate words and phrases ALL the time.  I have switched from Samsung voice to text to Google Voice to text, and that made no difference. I have turned off predictive text, and that made no difference. I am seeing that a lot of people have this issue.  Is there a solution,  or should I be returning this mess?  HELP!!

This seems to have just started on my S20FE5G too. Very interested in seeing any possible ways to stop this.

Just found this solution posted on another thread. So far it seems to be working for me!!

After hours of messing around, I solved the problem for mine. In phone settings, Under General management> Keyboard list and default, both Google Voice typing and Samsung voice input were both turned on. I turned off Samsung. Then under General management> text-to-speech, I changed the preferred engine to Google, and that fixed it. Setting both to Samsung did not work.

After much digging around,  I solved it for me.  Under phone settings>General management>Keyboard list and default, I found both Google and Samsung were "on." Turned off Samsung.  Also under phone settings>General management>Text to speech,  I changed preferred engine to Google.  Problem solved.  Note: setting both to Samsung did NOT work.
