Technology giant, Apple might offer voice recognition to iOS 5 under its rumored partnership with Nuance, which is an expert in the field, according to some reports.

MacRumors identified new screen shots on twitter by tech enthusiasts @Chronic and @SonnyDickson that show on/off switches for "Nuance Dictation," "Nuance Long Endpoi..." and "Mic on space key."

The screen shots show that the new voice recognition software could be a core function of future iOS releases. The new feature will bring Apple’s OD at par with Google’s Android platform, which already offers such features.

MacRumors threw its trust behind @Chronic and @SonnyDickson saying the two have "been known to have legitimate sources in the past."
