Client side mobile speech to text processing

Question

I would like to add speech to text to my app and have my app perpetually running. Google, Microsoft, Amazon, etc, offer pay to play serverside translations. The problem is that they are way too expensive for a simple app like mine to run nonstop.

I have read a bit about CMUSphinx, Kaldi, and a few others. Does anyone have any experience setting these up client side for mobile apps?

Looking for basic speech to text hello world manuals. I have combed the forums and found nothing so far.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

What I have tried:

Have looked through search engines and code project forums for simple examples.

Using windows or mac preferably.

"Server side" language processing is an "option". It uses more AI and has more voice options.

The OS comes with installed voices and synthesizer that are adequate for most apps. You just need to consult the documentation for the correct "environment" (The Microsoft versus the Windows (speech) "name spaces" for example).
