TreKing is correct. Your app does not include the speech recognition app or even code. It is requesting the phone if there is a speech recognition app installed and it just sends a request to that app to do the work for you. Some phones may have a different app installed or more than one. If the phone has more than one, the user gets to pick what your app uses for this function. Do camera apps have to tell the user that the photos taken might be viewed in the gallery that is provided by someone else?
