Changing value of input's model programmatically using angular

Question

I'm using Ionic framework to create my app.

I have a text input, with ng-model="answer", and bellow a have a button that starts speech recognition and then replaces the input text with the spoken one.

The problem is that I can't change the input's text programmatically when using the mic with $scope.answer="any text", it looks like it just doesn't change the view's value.

I found that I have to use a directive in order to bind the model, but to be honest I don't know how to address it right now.
Also I've tried $scope.$apply() but it works only the first time and when I haven't wrote any test directly to the input yet.

Can you include the code that changes the $scope.answer programmatically? — devqon

What you are looking for may be Angulars $watch() function, so you can handle any model changes even outside of the input field.
