I have no voice-to-text microphone on all keyboards on my Lumia 640 phone, is there a third-party app to add this feature?

no voice-to-text microphone on all keyboards on the lumia 640 phone

the most useful feature on my Android is the voice-to-text microphone on all keyboards. Not knowing that this feature is missing from the keyboards on the Lumia 640 now makes me very sorry that I bought a 640 yesterday.
Is there an update or third party app to add this feature?

Windows 10 is coming in a couple/few months has that feature. the 640 will also be one of the first devices to officially receive it.

However, if you can't wait and can excuse some bugs, the Technical preview might be up your alley. Just be prepared to erase your phone as with anything experimental. Although its quickly becoming final product quality.

How does one install the "Technical" that you are speaking of? Is that a technical of windows 10 and does it cost? If it does, about how much?

Windows 10 Mobile is still a work-in-progress. Through the "Windows Insider" program, we can gain access to pre-release versions of Windows 10.

It is free, you pay in that you are testing unfinished code. If you don't mind the risk of having to erase your phone or deal with odd problems, you can sign up. But only if you are willing to accept the inherent risks of using unfinished stuff.
