Can’t add profile
When I click add profile and a place to add profile URL a keyboard never pops up to type it in. Won’t give any other option to add profile. Essentially, it’s useless and now I can’t use my Dragon profile.
Inefficient
The app disconnects very frequently. My iPhone is tied to the Epic EMR and obviously I cannot change the settings on the phone to prevent it from locking after a few minutes (this is security related hospital driven setting) and as soon as the iPhone locks the power mic also disconnects. To go back in you again need to open the app tab and then again login and then again click the microphone on to dictate. Extremely annoying. Also if you switch between the power mic app and some other app, you have to redo the whole connection again. Makes the whole process of dictating very inefficient. Should have an always on top function which does not disconnect and with a simple voice command like “turn power mic on” or “off” to start and stop dictating. I was initially very enthusiastic about using it but it’s just clunky the way it is.

Can we have “Say Siri turn in Power Mic”?
Currently Siri can only open the app. Is there anyway to have Nuance power Mic work with Apple to allow Siri to open and turn on power mic with just one command.
It would be great to be able to dictate right away

Keyboard does not come up
Version has a bug and does not allow for keyboard to come up. Can’t enter information.
Additionally can’t send in-app feedback as no email is provided when hitting feedback button.

Poor app
Poor app poor connection. When it works is very helpful but unreliable and freezes frequently. Continue to have issues. Not recommended.
Need Apple Watch version
Excellent job! we need Apple Watch version
Flat out doesn’t work
Once you start this app it asks you to add a profile. The next page has two boxes: Profile URL and Profile name. You can’t enter a URL. The keyboard won’t come up. So IT had to text me the URL and it says “Invalid profile”.
So I went to Help and the screenshots it shows aren’t even *close* to what is on the app. Also went on their website and the screenshots are clearly of a different version. So pros: none
Cons: doesn’t work at all, and the help is not for this version.

Useless app
Piece of crap
Push to talk
I wish there was an option of a push to talk button like on the physical PowerMic II or III so you could hold down the button to talk and when you let go it stops recording.
Also wish there was an iPad version so when using the iPad to interface with the EHR, you would not need to use a separate iPhone.

Suggested changes
I use both Power Mic III and mobile version because I work in many different locations.
Things which could be improved in mobile version:
Left and right arrow buttons are too close to bottom of screen in iPhone X version and white slide bar is over them. Too frequently when trying to toggle between fields, I accidentally slide the white bar which disconnects me and then I have to reconnect in order to continue dictating. There is lots of empty white space around the dictate button: could the arrows be moved up and away from the white bar or made larger?
Disconnects too easily and too frequently in the middle of dictating. Why?
I use toggle to go to the next field and start dictating and it goes instead to text box. Why?
