Funktioniert absolut unzuverlässig

Ich hab die Software seit einigen Jahren im Einsatz und bin absoluter Fan und habe sie auch oft schon weiter empfohlen. Nur leider häufen sich seit ein paar Monaten die Probleme. E-Mails kommen einfach nur sporadisch an egal ob es Voice oder Textnachrichten sind und damit kann ich das Tool überhaupt nicht mehr einsetzen. Auch das neue Update ist absolut grauenhaft. Die alte Version war einfach perfekt einfach und hat genau das getan, was man wollte.

.....mein transkribierter Text auch wirklich so beim Empfänger ankommt, vergebe ich definitiv 5 Sterne. Da steckt verdammt viel Potenzial drin!

Ich finde die App mega und hoffe, dass sie weiterentwickelt wird.

Es tut uns leid wegen des Problems mit der Sprachtranskription: Bitte überprüfe unter Einstellungen > Erweiterte Einstellungen > Spracheinstellungen, ob Deutsch ausdrücklich auf Platz 1 gesetzt ist. Die App priorisiert diese Liste. Falls das Problem dadurch nicht behoben wird, schreib uns bitte an den Support, damit wir dir helfen können. Sollte jetzt in Version 10.0.1 behoben sein. Wir hoffen, dass die App nach der Behebung der dringendsten neuen Bugs wieder genauso einfach zu bedienen ist wie zuvor. Die meisten Testnutzer fanden das bereits so. Wir würden uns freuen zu hören, was du gerne anders sehen oder zusätzlich haben möchtest.

Brillant / 100 %

I use it a lot for websites i want to get to fast I visit then I use braintoss to send it to my email

New version is a huge step backwards

Just got the new version and the launch is rocky.

Alte Version war besser

Response from developer

Es tut mir leid, das zu hören. Die alte Version war in vielerlei Hinsicht eine Sackgasse. Was sind deine größten Beschwerden über die neue Version?

Ruined app

This app lived in n my dock for years… until the latest update, when I had to delete it straight off my phone. What used to be a simple and elegant app has now turned into total garbage with AI. I set my language to Canadian English, but the app decided I must want my transcription to be in Dutch – which I speak not a word of. The output is now completely useless and so now I just simply use the built-in Apple voice memo app. It works like a charm.

We're very sorry v10 left you feeling the app was ruined. We want to help with the voice transcription issue: please check Settings > Advanced Settings > Language Preferences, ensuring Canadian English is explicitly set as #1. The app prioritizes that list. If this doesn't fix it, please write us at support so we can help. Should be fixed now in 10.0.1. Hopefully after fixing the most urgent new bugs the app will be as easy to use again (most test users thought so) and we would love to hear what you would like to see different / added. Thanks, Richard

A game changer for idea people

I think the ratings don't reflect this new app. It's amazing. Use it come back and review it. Let's get that score back up!

애플워치에서 안됩니다.

잘사용하던 Braintoss가 애플워치에서 컴플리케이션이 안됩니다. 빨리 복구해 주시기를 부탁드립니다.

Wat an amazing update!

Braintoss has been my trusted go-to for years. And it had fallen a bit in recent times. But with this version 10 it is really back to form and then some. Wow.

Response from developer

Working on a big update. Almost ready. You’ll love it

Ok app

In theory this app should be great. When it works it is. I’ve had messages go through days later when i forgot about them. App will say message sent but it wasn't. Needs to be worked out. I lowered my stars for this app. Don't know why I still use it. Issue for better then worse since last update. You can also text your phone from your email address.

Voice to speech doesn’t work

After using 2 weeks the most important function voice to text doesn’t work anymore. After 3 emails to their helpdesk still no solutions.

More customization

I wish there was a better way to customize, like when I receive the email instead of just sending it out
SGSo fun guys

Response from developer

Apologies for your experience and the radio silence. We have just released a completely rebuilt app. Please give it a try and let us know what you think.

Doesn’t work

Don’t buy, the voice recognition is terrible. You get emails with mum on jumbo. Waste of time and money

Best app purchase I’ve ever made

I’ve been using Braintoss for 6 years and it’s the best app purchase I’ve ever made. I use it every day, not only for the “to-do list” sort of things, but also for creative ideas. I’m a fiction writer and sometimes I’ll have a big idea about my story when I’m jogging or driving or whatever, and I’ll immediately and easily capture it in Braintoss. This is so much better than other apps like Notes because Braintoss sends an email to my inbox that automatically gets flagged so I can’t possibly miss it.
