I found a possible font/locale issue in Essential Voice on Nothing Phone (3).
When I use Japanese voice input in Essential Voice, some Japanese characters are displayed using Chinese-style glyphs/fonts.
For comparison, I tested the same sentence using the ChatGPT app voice input, which seems to work correctly.
ChatGPT app:
「新しく追加された機能について、日本語の入力が昔の中華フォントのようなおかしな文字になってしまいます。なぜなのか調べてください。」
Essential Voice:
「新しく追加された机能について、日本语の入力が昔の中华フォントのようなおかしな文字になってしまいます。なぜなのか调べてください。」
The speech recognition itself seems mostly correct.
However, some kanji are rendered differently in a Chinese-style font.
Examples:
- 機 → 机
- 語 → 语
- 華 → 华
- 調 → 调
This only seems to happen in Essential Voice.
I think it may be related to:
- CJK font fallback
- locale detection
- Chinese glyph rendering (zh-CN / zh-Hant)
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
If there is a workaround or fix, please let me know.
Device:
Nothing Phone (3)
Sorry if my English is awkward — I used AI translation for this post.
