Certain implementations of the disclosed technology include systems and methods for an enhanced speech recognition interface. According to an example implementation, a method includes outputting a first icon and second icon for presentation on a display device; responsive to receiving an indication of an input object being maintained at a first location of an input device, causing a recording device to record an audio signal; responsive to receiving an indication that the input object has moved across the input device from the first location of the input device to a second location of the input device, causing the recording device to stop recording the audio signal; outputting text, based on the recorded audio signal, for presentation on the display device; and responsive to receiving an indication of the input object being maintained at the second location of the input device, causing a portion of the text to be removed from presentation on the display device.
