In my android app I call the voice recognition in my onCreate method of my startup activity. I have made it a preference to start up with the voice control or not. However, the app takes about 5-7 seconds to load when voice recognition is on. When it is off, the app starts almost instantly. Below is sample code, I have added Free_Form, max_results 1, and a custom prompt to mine.

Intent intent = new Intent("android.speech.action.RECOGNIZE_SPEECH");  
startActivityForResult(intent, 0);

So really I have 2 questions:

Isn’t the startActivity(intent) run in a separate thread?

Why would calling the normal android speech recognition take sooo long to load in my OnCreate method?

    You probably don’t wait to complete that process from onCreate, instead launch it so that the result will come back to a callback handler, or make a thread and launch it from there.
