### 1/5 — Inútil

*2025-12-17, version 4.4.3*

No sirve para absolutamente nada

### 1/5 — iPhone 14 Pro

*2025-09-11, version 4.3.8*

No me deja login.. no funciona login. Ni funciona audio! 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

### 5/5 — Buenísima

*2025-05-28, version 4.3.1*

Magnífica App, sencilla y competa!!!

### 5/5 — Buena app

*2025-02-14, version 4.2.3*

Sencilla, fluida de usar.

Oportunidades de mejora:
- el login debería ser con email directo y sin clave, la clave en los input text no se lee y la clave que trae por defecto es larguísima. El onboarding me pareció lo más complicado de toda la app, tendría que hacerlo una persona con un avanzado grado de entendimiento de apps.

Buena app, la estoy usando para que diga lo que escribo y me ha sido muy útil.

### 4/5 — Quiere esta velocidad voz lenta

*2025-01-21, version 4.2.3*

Falta opción velocidad voz lenta discapacidad auditiva y visual ve ayuda lenta más cosa

### 2/5 — Antes era más útil

*2024-12-16, version 4.2*

Yo uso la aplicación desde 2022 porque por enfermedad ya no puedo hablar. Me era muy útil y práctica, definitivamente ideal para alguien que no se puede comunicar a través de la voz. Pero la actualización en iPhone me ha dificultado el poderme comunicar como antes. Los mensajes nuevo se ponen hasta el final y es un lío buscarlos.  Ya ni me deja editar un mensaje y eso era una funcionalidad que usaba mucho. Ahora hasta error tiene los números los dice en inglés cuando el idioma que uso es el español y también me ha pasado que otros mensajes me los cambia de idioma.
Ojalá regresaran a la versión del 2022.

### 1/5 — No transcribe del español

*2024-06-11, version 3.4.6*

Le hablas en español y pone cualquier cosa en inglés. No sirve en absoluto para una hablante en español.
Adicionalmente, el enlace de condiciones de privacidad no existe, no lleva a ningún sitio

### 3/5 — No funciona bien

*2024-02-09, version 3.4.6*

Por mas de que tengo configurado todo en español, cuando intentamos pasar mensajes de voz a texto, lo considera como si fuera ingles. 🫣

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2023-12-20, version 3.4.6*

Muy buena aplicación. La uso siempre con mi hijo q tenía dificultades para hablar.

### 5/5 — Muy buena apo

*2023-11-24, version 3.4.6*

Desde que la descargué la comunicación con mi padre es mucho más fácil.
Sufrió un ictus hace un año que le afectó al habla.
Le resulta muy fácil comunicarse con los pictogramas y los atajos.
Genial!
