Reviews of Lightcast

  • Translation doesn’t work

    When using the “large” ai model, the app just crashes. When using the “small” ai model, it fails saying “folder does not exist”
  • Wonderful utility

    This is a great little app! It’s simple to use and the transcriptions are marvelous. In the sea of crappy, gimmicky, ad-ridden junk, this is a gem.

    Simple to use, inexpensive transcription/service fee, and NO ADS!!
  • Great Audio/Podcast transcription app!

    I was looking for an app that would transcribe a recording I had made into text -- this did it and so much more!

    The best bonus feature was the highlighting of the sentence/phrase alongside playing the audio -- I could determine what was not quite accurate within the transcription and follow along.

    Next best bonus feature: I'm a "podfaster" and like to play my podcasts at 2x (or more). This does taht, and helps me with retention by having the transcription highlight at the same time!
