### 5/5 — Life saver

*2025-10-28, version 5.3*

Haven’t watched lectures and I can now read them using this. Just leaving my phone open with it recording what happens

### 5/5 — Kill shots

*2025-10-20, version 5.3*

Killakop

### 3/5 — Experiment

*2025-10-10, version 5.3*

I wouldn’t have bought this if I had known that you didn’t get a live transcription

The summary was quite competent. But you had to wait for it so no use to a roundly deaf person who needs to know what people are talking about while the conversation is happening

### 1/5 — Beware

*2025-10-01*

I tried recording twice and was successful however each of these recordings failed to transcribe.  Be ware.

### 5/5 — I love this app.

*2025-04-01, version 3.8*

Thank you so much for this app, it is brilliant and is great for transcribing my voice memos for my research project. Very user friendly and works excellently.

### 1/5 — Terrible promotion

*2025-03-24*

I downloaded this app and used it once, but could never use it again because every time I tried to access one of its features, a window would pop up, prompting me to buy a subscription and every time I closed it, the app would not be working so I will be deleting this app because it’s not functional because of the invasive advertising

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2025-03-07*

This platform has changed my life significantly and I could not be any more grateful

### 3/5 — Not completely reliable

*2025-03-05*

I have had several recordings where the transcription saves, but the recording disappears even after I give it a title. There was one recording that I did a couple of months ago that never transcribed or saved the recording. I just did another recording last night at a meeting and the screen still shows the message at the top that says “Voice recording and transcription in progress. Transcription will appear shortly. The recording has been ended as of 3 hours ago and there has been no transcript. These are important recordings that because of the nature of the meetings cannot be redone.

### 3/5 — Did not work

*2024-10-21*

It did not transcribe an important conference and lost the audio.

### 5/5 — The amount of Utility is grate

*2024-10-21, version 2.8*

Easy to use wow !
