An interesting screenshot has come our way from a confirmed Apple employee and it confirms the iOS 5 Nuance speech-t0-text functionality we first revealed to the world by way of the iOS 5 SDK. As you can see in the screenshot above, Nuance speech-to-text in iOS 5 is very real and it is being tested right now in the wild. This is how we previously described the feature based on our own code findings:

The feature – if final testing goes well – should make its way into the public’s hands sometime this fall. Most likely in early October alongside the fifth-generation iPhone. This Nuance “Dictation” integration will not be Apple’s only voice-intitiative for iOS 5. The company is also working hard on a new Siri-based Assistant feature for voice-navigation throughout the operation system.
