We will use the [NativeScript Speech Recognition plugin by Eddy Verbruggen](https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/nativescript-speech-recognition) to convert speech to text. The plugin provides a clean abstraction over the [Android SpeechRecognizer](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/speech/SpeechRecognizer.html) and the [iOS SFSpeechRecognizer](https://developer.apple.com/reference/speech/sfspeechrecognizer).
