How many of you use the mike when texting.

I am using it more than ever. I may have to correct but lately I have been more careful about enunciating words. Of course I do not use it in public.

I like to use it when it works. Half the time it doesn't. Much faster than fingers.

I use it as I'm not good texting with the fingers.

I must have a mouthful of 'Pittsburghese' marbles. It can never figure out what I'm saying. Do yinz know what I mean?

Siri can be very bad at times. I really have to read over her message before I hit send.

And some of the misinterpretations are downright hilarious (:

I only use it when I am Googling, and it doesn't always know what I'm saying so I wouldn't try it for sentences.

I have fairly good luck. I can correct the few words that may have been misunderstood. And I just hate to use the abbreviations. I am old school.
