Write a story. The only thing is it doesn’t explanatory on how to operate this app as far as sending it to a different location and how do I change over to translation and when I change over to translation, it says that I need to turn off the record first, but I don’t know how to go. I don’t know how to turn off the record is there any specific instructions? ### 4/5 — SKJ Record *2026-06-02, version 4.1.2* Some of the transcripts are based from sounds like words instead of the actual words. To read it as is you would have to rewrite it from the recording. ### 5/5 — B *2026-05-12, version 4.1.2* C ### 5/5 — Awesome E-Dictate->Record-> Summation Platform/APP !!**** *2026-05-12, version 4.1.2* 200+++%%%‼️‼️ ### 5/5 — Gratitud *2026-04-29, version 4.1.2* Me facilita la comprensión gracias saludos buen día ### 3/5 — Tmf *2026-04-26, version 4.1.2* Ok so.far just got don't really understand it yet ### 5/5 — Superb *2026-04-23, version 4.1.2* Awesome ### 5/5 — Optional *2026-04-20, version 4.1.2* Optional ### 5/5 — tonight *2026-04-03, version 4.1.2* dictate Quickly! ### 5/5 — Best ever *2026-03-30, version 4.1.2* Best ever ### 5/5 — If you don’t have this *2026-03-27, version 4.1.2* Your trippin it’s a must have ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2026-07-10, version 4.1.2* It’s 5.99 a week which is wildly expensive. Be sure to cancel the free trial before they charge you! ### 1/5 — Displeased Don’t Bother!! *2026-07-06, version 4.1.2* It is impossible to cancel the same day. You do not have the option for a trial basis a week or a day they literally slap the yearly charge on your card. If you go to cancel they hold you till the following year to cancel. No number to call and speak to anyone or email for them to call you back. Don’t bother!!! ### 1/5 — transcription was gibberish *2026-06-23, version 4.1.2* the product never worked the transcription was complete gibberish it’s very disappointing & the screen to cancel does not load ### 1/5 — Cannot cancel service *2026-05-28, version 4.1.2* Horrible.Sent email to cancel and still being charged a month later. ### 1/5 — Cancel *2026-04-29, version 4.1.2* I want to cancel my free 3 day trial now ### 1/5 — I never used I want to cancel!

I tried to try the free version, but they charged me for a year, and when I contacted them by email to refund my money, they wouldn't do it. Even Apple support didn't do anything! This app doesn't recognize all languages ​​and can only detect a few major languages. Even the app's support website is not secure and gives you a security warning before you log in! I don't know why Apple is so irresponsible that they don't even look into it in the first place, and they don't even care if this app is safe or not! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Streamlined *2026-08-11, version 4.1.2* This app is so helpful when it comes to interviewing and transcripts!

At a doctor appointment we get so much information in such a short amount of time and I record assist so much. I came home after the appointment and listened to the summary and it was amazing. Absolutely 100% accurate.. I only wish it didn’t cost $6 a week as I don’t use it that often but when I needed it, it’s extremely handy. ### 5/5 — Musica cristiana *2026-05-12, version 4.1.2* Musica cristiana --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
