I am testing on chrome and its working amazingly. The only problem is when i turn off device wifi with OnDevice=true it gives error. Why does onDevice need network.

Also if there is some information how network is working. Is text sent through some backend api?

For web support I believe they all use online web services but I don't know the details of the browser implementations of speech recognition. My implementation ignores the onDevice setting when targeting a web browser because the web API that I use has no support for requesting on device recognition.
