Safari 11 beta - Web Speech API

Hi all!


I updated Safari to 11 beta on macOS Sierra (v10.12.6) searching for working Web Speech API, as https://developer.apple.com/safari/features/ mentioned the following:

"Web Speech API

Support for the Web Speech API, Safari can convert text to speech and vice versa, allowing developers to create accessible, voice-driven web apps."


But it seems to me in Safari still doesn't have option for speech to text via Web Speech API in HTML. Does Safari really support or will support Web Speech API?

I am also very interested in this feature - it there any particular configuration that is need to make it work?

I am also very interested. It would allow for feature-rich assisted web sites, and I think it shouls have been enabled many years ago. Even a $20 Android phone can do it, in almost language in the world. Since the iPhone has the function built in, the only thing needed is to add the functionality to the Javascript API.
