Taken from https://play.google.com/about/families/coppa-compliance/integrate/ :
Android Speech API

Child-directed apps shouldn't use the Android Speech API if they don't participate in the Designed for Families program. Apps in the Designed for Families program should follow these instructions when using the Android Speech API:

RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_CALLING_PACKAGE must be set to its PackageName.


I have created a kids, educational app that uses the "Speech to Text". I wanted to make sure that it will not be flagged for anything when I submit it. Is anyone aware if the default "Speech to Text" adheres to this package policy?


Thanks!

Just to update here. My app created on AppInventor went through the submission successfully. It was not flagged. Hope that helps.
