## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-12-23*

Don’t work on IPad and was charged for the service.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t do anything the note app can’t do

*2024-05-24*

It asks to use your phones info. It doesn’t do anything on its own. It says it works on airplane mode. Well so does my phone!

**Developer response:** The app is designed specifically to help deaf/HoH users as the default notes app does not allow for long running and large visible captions. Thanks for the review!

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2024-02-24*

I forgot to try out my three day trial and was charged fee. I tried the app on numerous occasions afterward and was throughly disappointed with the app. Nothing but frustration and aggravation. The closed captions were slow and had trouble picking up any conversation on a consistent basis. I would have been better off throwing my money into the wind. I will go back to my other CC app called Live Transcribe.

### 5/5 — Thank you😭

*2024-11-14*

Most people who need this wish they could pay! The free version works well thank you again and again!

### 5/5 — I love this live transcribe app!!

*2023-06-20*

Tried it with my grandparents and it worked sooooo well! Super easy to use and not ugly! Thanks for making this app!
