### 2/5 — Not acceptable at this stage

*2021-03-16, version 1.5*

Very slow to recognise the words and could only write less than half of the sentence.  
It needs a lot of improvement

### 1/5 — Mr

*2019-12-05, version 1.5*

Passable first go. Switched to u.k English (should improve) and appalling result. Very amusing though, made me lol. So, agree with guy who mentioned comic value!

### 4/5 — Better tuen Dragon Dictation

*2017-07-23, version 1.5*

out of all the apps of you so far this one is the most clear the Google microphone is good and so is Dragon dictation but this app is definitely a star or two better

### 1/5 — Bwahahahaha! ??

*2017-06-11, version 1.5*

It's like a joke thing? 

I was curious as to why such a complicated piece of software was free. I assumed it was because they would probably have the rights to your audio clips or text (like Okay Google does); so I was prepared to read the Terms and Agreements thoroughly, only there were none. 

Well maybe it is just because it is crap and they realized they'd be uninstalled immediately so selling it would be moot. Next game up: get the download number up!

### 1/5 — No accuracy

*2016-05-22, version 1.5*

It wrote stuff down...but not what I was saying.

### 1/5 — Too many glitches

*2016-02-01, version 1.5*

This product cuts out and you cannot get a proper sentence dictated. I have removed it from my desktop.

### 1/5 — No way

*2016-01-26, version 1.5*

Had to spell, and it was wrong at the phoneme level.  Terrible.

### 5/5 — Don't erase dictation.

*2015-11-12, version 1.5*

Before I thought dictation was terrible but it turns out I was doing it wrong so now it is awesome.Keep it up dictation.👍👍👍

### 1/5 — I wouldn't recommend this to anybody ever.

*2015-11-10, version 1.5*

This app is worthless every time I say a word it always says a different type of word. This app will waste your storage and is the worst app I have ever used.

### 3/5 — Limited abilities, good for short sentences only

*2015-09-14, version 1.5*

Voice to text recognition is very good, but the dictation is limited to only 10 seconds of information. So it's good for short sentences. However, it is way too short for my purposes. Clarification about that limit is needed in the details about the app. Clarification is also needed that there is no way to edit nor copy/cut the transcript in the app (there is no keyboard connection). You have to send each tiny, 10 second snippet of transcript separately before the next dictation is started.
