    ...

• Error Handling
• Custom Prompt
• Several Locales to choose from

##Example of what's to come

...
async _buttonClick(){
    try{
        //More Locales will be available upon release.
        var spokenText = await SpeechAndroid.startSpeech("Speak yo", SpeechAndroid.GERMAN);
        ToastAndroid.show(spokenText , ToastAndroid.LONG);
    }catch(error){
        switch(error){
            case SpeechAndroid.E_VOICE_CANCELLED:
                ToastAndroid.show("Voice Recognizer cancelled" , ToastAndroid.LONG);
                break;
            case SpeechAndroid.E_NO_MATCH:
                ToastAndroid.show("No match for what you said" , ToastAndroid.LONG);
                break;
            case SpeechAndroid.E_SERVER_ERROR:
                ToastAndroid.show("Google Server Error" , ToastAndroid.LONG);
                break;
            /*And more errors that will be documented on Docs upon release*/
        }
    }
}
...

This will automatically start recognizing and adjusting for the German Language. On release I'll update these docs with every single Locale available.
