Bug Report – Voice Input Error
OpenAI Developer Community
April 27, 2026
I am experiencing an issue with the voice input feature in the ChatGPT Android app.
When I try to use voice dictation, the app shows an “Error” message and does not transcribe my speech. This happens consistently within the ChatGPT app.
Important details:
* Voice input works correctly in other apps (e.g., WhatsApp, Notes)
* The issue only occurs inside the ChatGPT app
* Microphone permissions are enabled
* Internet connection is stable
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the ChatGPT app
2. Tap the microphone icon
3. Start speaking
4. The app shows an “Error” message instead of transcribing
Expected behavior:
Voice input should transcribe speech normally.
Actual behavior:
An error message appears and no transcription is generated.
Device:
(Doogee S20) on windows fails too
