## What it is
A React Native speech-to-text library providing voice recognition on iOS and Android with both online and offline support. The package is now deprecated and archived, with users directed to expo-speech-recognition as a maintained alternative.

## Use cases
- add speech-to-text to a react native app
- transcribe voice input on ios and android
- offline voice recognition in react native
- build a voice-controlled mobile app
- convert microphone audio to text in react native
- dictation feature in a mobile app

## When to choose
- maintaining a legacy react native app already using this library
- referencing historical implementation of react native speech recognition

## When to avoid
- starting a new react native or expo project needing speech recognition
- you want actively maintained software
- you need expo go compatibility

- function: speech-recognition, audio-processing
- domain: mobile-development, speech-processing, cross-platform
