### 3/5 — Is Free version of App Just a Recorder?

*2021-01-07*

I simply recorded a two to three minute 911 call from a cd-r to a audio VLC file. 

It was great as a recorder. And saving and transferring the file to the cloud etc. But no matter what I did I could not get a text, or transcription of a very, very, short tape. 

Is that just available with the $8.99 Pro Version?

**Developer response:** Hi,

Thanks for your review.

You can share both the transcription text file and audio file. This functionality is completely free!

Once you have saved your recording, simply tap on that record on the home screen. Then, you will find the share button on the lower left corner of the recording detail screen.

Let me know if you have any other questions :)

Thanks
Tanin

I helped with some of the beta-testing back in the day and still use the app from time to time for anything from live text-to-speech to seeing how fast I can talk(lol)this app really should get more attention!

### 5/5 — For podcasts and hard of hearing!

*2020-09-19, version 1.4*

I’ve used this for both. It helps me find my place when I’m editing my audio. Lots of great features. 

It’s also useful as live captions for dDeaf and hard of hearing folx!
