Are there any plans to add more supported languages?

Hey @thebiltheory, unfortunately locale support is device and OS-specific since this library uses the baked-in speech recognition APIs on Android & iOS. Under the hood for iOS we're using SFSpeechRecognizer (Siri) which we use to get a list of supported locales. This library doesn't currently include any custom speech recognition models, or utilise external speech recognition services that can be controlled.

That being said, en-BE seems to be quite rare, Google Cloud STT doesn't seem to support it either.

Got it. Thanks!

Also, don't be surprised if you're in the next React Newsletter. Do you have Twitter?

Hey @thebiltheory, thank you for the mention! I don't currently have any public socials, but I do hang out on the Expo Developers Discord with the handle "Trucidare".
