The 2-finger double tap works fine for me when I want to start dictating in an email or text message. I am on the latest iOS 10 on an iPhone 6S Plus.

Once I hear the tone I dictate my message then end with a two finger double tap. Kim On 6/8/17, Richard Petty <richard.pe...@earthlink.net> wrote: > You're right.
