### 1/5 — Ungelungen

*2026-03-23*

Es ist mir nicht gelungen, ein Diktat aufzunehmen. Weder in Deutsch noch in rumänischer Sprache. Das Produkt hatte ich ausgesucht, weil man Rumänisch diktieren kann. Aber scheinbar funktioniert gar nix. Möglicherweise liegt es auch daran, dass ich mich bereit meine Bankverbindung Daten zu übermitteln, damit sie überhaupt irgendetwas von mir abbuchen. Für eine Demoversion auch auf drei Tage begrenzt, braucht man nicht die persönlichen Daten des Kandidaten.

Ich finde es überhaupt ausgesprochen übergriffig, wenn man bei Demo-Versionen schon an den nächsten Zahlung Schritt denken muss. Schöne Grüße PS: Sie zwingen mich in ein Stern zu geben. Gebe mir nicht die Möglichkeit in eine -5 zu geben.

### 1/5 — Ужасно сырое приложение

*2025-12-21*

С телевизора не умеет и стоит. Много ошибки

### 5/5 — Best app

*2025-05-05*

I personally liked this app as someone is who hard of hearing so I use this app with my friends to understand what they are saying which works really well and the best part is that it is free I recommend this app 100%

### 5/5 — Hearing aid

*2025-03-23*

Doesn’t allways hear everything

### 5/5 — 助かります

*2024-08-14*

街の開業医です。高度難聴の患者さんの診察時に助かっています。

### 1/5 — Over monetized

*2024-08-10*

To even try it out you have to watch 45sec worth of ads. To use it without ads, and most important features, you have to sign up for a SUBSCRIPTION that comes put to about $20 per year. Its not worth it. I cant even tell you if what the app does is useful.

### 5/5 — 反応がよい

*2024-06-14*

反応も良く変換もなかなか正確だと感じました。

### 3/5 — 仕方ないけど広告が…

*2024-04-11*

やっぱ広告が、チョイ　ウザいです

### 5/5 — A great help for my deaf mother!

*2022-08-09*

This app is the perfect solution for the deaf or partially deaf who feel left out in conversations or just feel frustrated as they simply can’t hear what’s just been said. We struggled to communicate with my mother as she just can’t hear well enough even with a good hearing aid. But with this app it makes it so much easier for her to understand. It works perfectly in one-on-one situations. I can speak to her, she can then read what I’ve said and then she can reply. What a break through!! To my knowledge there is no other app to help the deaf in this way. It’s easy to operate and to use in daily situations too. Highly recommend it!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much!
