Annoyed with Google’s Speech Services notification that constantly reminds you of a pending update? Well, it has become a common glitch among a large number of Android devices. If you are facing the same issue on your device, go through the entire article, to know all about this error and ways to solve it.

What is Speech Services by Google?

An example of the Speech Services provided by Google can be the narration you hear while using Google maps. Speech Services lets applications read text aloud from the screen in a variety of languages. In simpler words, it converts text to speech, making information accessibility easier. However, a lot of users have complained of a glitch that pins a notification on their phone denoting that Google Services is updating and is waiting for a network connection. This is happening even though the device is connected to a fully functional and stable internet connection.
