By far the worst signup experience I have ever experienced
In a world where there are simple single sign-on solutions, using a plethora of social media logins. This app not only requires you to login with an old school email and password confirmation, but the login does not even work! I have tried Peterlee to register an account, to try to reset a password, to cancel the whole thing try again with a different email address, In fact just to use log into the app in the normal way with every single in the entire world use it. Failure. When you go to the support, you cannot login unless you have an account. You can only get an account if this system works. The only other way to contact them is by ringing some American telephone number. Why would I want to do that? I'm in Europe. Paragraph there is no chat system, there is no form, there is no discussion forum. Frankly, I'm not surprised, as my experience of Dragon/Nuance has always been appalling. I was hoping they might have changed. Obviously not.

Good grief haven’t they fix this yet?
Now they charge a monthly or yearly subscription. Having same problem other iPhone users are having. I carefully enter my email address and password. Then the app crashes. I opened it up and enter my correct information, and received notice that I don’t exist. Really? I canceled my subscription. Open the app again, entered my information only to be told I don’t exist a second time. I canceled my subscription again. Not sure I trust them enough to return to use this wonderful service. Because there are many iPhone users you would think they’d want the revenue brought in by this app. Good grief, where are the app developers? Why hasn’t dragon figured out the issue? And for heaven sake, why are they selling it if it’s defective?

If you are looking for an aggravating experience this is the right app for you
I never even got to the use the app. The app is broken you receive the notification from apple that the subscription is active and then you can’t sign into the app. It says the email address doesn’t exist in there system. So I canceled it and tried their web site. Not any better you go through the whole purchase and then go back to the app and again it says email doesn’t exist in there data base after you receive an email to that same email with the receipt of your purchase. Then you go back to there web site to log into your account and after entering log in info page reloads and goes back to log in screen saying unknown error. Contacting customer service the next day was a waste of time also. It is amazing if this company is able to get any money from customers. Nothing works you cant even attempt to use the product. They really need to revamp there purchase process. Maybe someday i will actually be able to try the app. Someone from this company should actually try to purchase there own product so they can see how broken the process is. Complete fail.

Terrible!
This barely works! It makes so many mistakes I might as well not bother. I speak clearly and it can’t even recognize simple words. Very annoying.
Highest Quality On App Store
I find that it is easier than writing my book while using this app because it is the highest quality dictation software I have found available and IPhone. I do believe there is a men’s room for improvement especially with regards to auto saving or features which verify whether or not you would actually like to delete selected text. My biggest gripe is that it is way too easy to accidentally delete a paragraph while doing any sort of multitasking or if the phone is just simply in your hand even attempting to copy the work that you’ve just created you can way to easily accidentally delete things otherwise the app does deliver upon expectations.

LESS than One Star!!!
I tried to install it since Dragon Talk went away. It would not accept my email to begin registration of the product. Since I own SEVERAL Nuance device and desktop apps, all under same email, I was astounded by that. I called for support (nothing else was available), and was connected with a rude man named “Manual” who said he was in Manila. He wanted me to give him my credit card over the phone to “register” the product, even though Nuance website doesn’t recognize my email as account holder. NICE TRY, SCAM SCUM!!!
I will NOT buy, use or recommend this product! It worked well in the past, but at present their core business seems focused on scams and credit card fraud!
Try it if you want, but remember: “I WARNED YOU!!!”

This app helped me get through undergrad!
No seriously, I have fleshed out countless papers at this point using Dragon Anywhere. Sure, you will probably want to double check for your editing, but this application is great for getting content and raw ideas on paper. If I were to suggest one minor update for Dragon to implement, I would absolutely love it if there was an active word-count to help users keep track of their progress as they dictate the text. Whenever I have a 20-40 page research paper it can be a little difficult to gauge how much progress I have actually accomplished. Also, a tool for inserting footnotes would also be a huge help for users like myself.

Better Than a Self Help Book
I have been a long-time user of Dragon dictation software, and several years back begin using Dragon anywhere on my iOS devices. If you are committed to maximizing your time to achieve a balance, this is where your time and money should be spent. Purchase, learn how to utilize effectively effectively, and you will immediately gain efficiency: emails; reports; white papers; etc.
And regardless of what you may read or hear from friends or colleagues, free or less expensive dictation tools simply do not compare... i’ve tried them, save time and money and invest in the best.

New version (1.5) looks good.
I didn’t even try the previous version because the reviews were so bad. However, I’ve now been using the latest version for five days and so far it’s very impressive. Dictation accuracy is good (much better than Siri!) And the ability to edit text using voice commands works very well. You can set up your own custom dictionary for specialist words. Basically, it just works. The one drawback is you have to dictate into the Dragon app, And then transfer text from there to whichever app you are working in.

This company has always had the worst service assistance possible
When it works it’s better then Siri.... however be warned... this company has one of the worst service departments of any for software. I have used dragon for years and each time it takes hours to fix software issues where it declares war with other software. So I was happy to see an application where I could finally stop using via computers and stop wasting hours trying to get their software to just work... but now I find the application has disappeared off my iPhone and surprise surprise it will not accept any login to acknowledge me now....and to get any help from nuance you have to PAY them to help you make their own app work... if I had not paid for the year, I could just re-install it under a new email and maybe it would actually work. But now I have to deal with trying to get it to work on a email it will not acknowledge.
