Hide microphone button Android virtual keyboard

Question

I wanted to know if is it possible to hide the microphone button (speech-to-text) in Android Virtual Keyboard programatically.

I know I can disable this option through device settings, but I don't want the user to use this feature in my application independently of his/her settings. I mean i want to force this behaviour inside my app.

Thanks in advance, Demian

Here's how you do it: android:privateImeOptions="nm" - nm stands for No Microphone.
