You can't use speech recognition on public transport. And this line "so I made the extremely difficult decision to wait 5 minutes until I was in a better place to do what I wanted" sounds a lot like "you're holding the phone wrong". I think there are software improvements that you can make though. Apple's Reachability feature is a step in the right direction. But not enough.

> You can't use speech recognition on public transport. Sure, that's why I just waited the 5 minutes instead. It wasn't all that long ago that people waited weeks or months for responses to a correspondence, waiting a few minutes isn't the end of the world, somehow humanity got along just fine waiting a little. I already don't answer my phone if it's not convenient (it's why they invented voice mail). There's some keyboards I suppose I could hunt around and install if I really need to text that very second. While I'm at it I suppose I could just get a subvocal mic so I can talk to my texting app while on a bus. https://www.thinkgeek.com/product/c8e1/ https://www.thinkgeek.com/product/c8e1/
