Great for complex conversations, like working neurologists.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Only worked for one of two visits.

*2024-10-14*

My husband being seen at Mayo Clinic. Very excited to find this app for us as well recommending to my husband’s patients. However, that was not to be.  The first visit was perfect. 
The second visit would not play back and you could not read the transcripts. Each time I would press to hear the visit, it would take me back to the app. I sent messages through the app and  email. NO RESPONSE  An appt that only works 50% of the time is a poor app.

### 1/5 — What I got was gobbledegook

*2023-11-18*

Very disappointed.  Recorded very important meeting with oncologist. Very small room so should have been clear.  The recording basically made no sense and missed basically all medical terms   Couldn’t tell who was talking   Very disappointing

### 3/5 — Medcorder BLoCKED Me

*2026-04-27*

So I forgot my phone was on airplane mode while trying to set up the account with my phone number- I didn’t receive my code due to airplane mode- once I realized what was going on - I redownloaded the app to try again and the app said they have blocked all further requests from my phone number due to suspicious activity.

### 3/5 — It works but not consistently

*2024-05-28*

I’ve been using it for quite some time. Accuracy is not always correct. Today I made a short 30 sec recording and the words were off. Also, the app now crashes every time I attempt to view the transcript. Good interface. Just need the bugs resolved.

### 4/5 — Helpful

*2020-02-11*

I thought this app was very helpful and easy to use.

**Developer response:** We are so glad you found it useful!

If you have a moment it would be awesome if you could let us know how we could further improve it, how you found out about the app, and what's worked for you by writing to team@medcorder.com - thanks!

-David (CEO)

### 4/5 — New Roger Myers

*2020-01-30*

I’m still working around to see how works. One thing it needs transcribing larger print

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. Totally agreed that transcript text needs to be more legible: we are working on a better overall playback experience in our upcoming release!

### 5/5 — Good

*2023-03-12*

Very useful and good

### 5/5 — Orthopedic Surgeon 8/8/22

*2022-08-08*

This is my first time using Medcorder. I was glad to have it to use, but I haven’t had time to listen to recording or share it yet.  So I need a few days here first before a thorough review!

### 5/5 — Sherri W.

*2021-06-09*

This tool is fantastic!   I love how, within the transcription, the medical terms and medications provides a hyperlink you can click on for further explaination.

### 5/5 — Recording

*2021-03-17*

I don’t know if I have done everything the way that I was supposed to?  If not, let me know

### 5/5 — Perfect solution to a tough problem

*2021-03-12*

My wife and I had scheduled a video conference to meet her new neurologist. We were scared, had a bazillion questions, and were overwhelmed by all the worst-case scenarios we’d imagined. Our daughter was also present, and I knew there would be no way I could take notes fast enough to be able to review all that would be covered in that half hour. Out of desperation I found this Medcorder app, and quickly realized I now had a tool that would let me actually LISTEN to what was being said rather than stress out about what I might be missing. We have an audio recording of the meeting, we were provided with a written transcript, and we are confident that we are moving in the right direction. Thank you, Medcorder!  What a great tool to help us separate facts from fear!

### 5/5 — Perfect program

*2020-06-24*

Especially for Patents and adult children.

### 5/5 — Doctor’s appointments

*2020-04-23*

I use this anytime a doctor will allow the conversation to be recorded so that my two daughters can hear as well.  Sometimes I wish the microphone was a little louder because it can be difficult to hear it when it is played back!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the note, 1 GI JOE. Good news; we're rolling out some changes next week to provide automatic noise reduction and loudness normalization to Medcorder recordings that should make all of your recordings much more listenable! We love specific feedback like this; please keep it coming! -David, CEO

### 5/5 — My favorite apps

*2020-04-09*

The best - love love love.  Works perfectly

**Developer response:** Hooray! We're so happy it's working well for you. Please shake your phone while using the app to offer any suggestions you have for how we could make it better. If you could take a moment to email your story of how you're using medcorder to team@medcorder.com that would be awesome. -David (CEO)

### 5/5 — Never missing another word from the doctor

*2019-08-29*

I can’t go to an appointment now without Medcorder! Love this app!

**Developer response:** Awesome! So glad this is working for you.

### 5/5 — Very helpful app

*2019-08-29*

I recently started using Medcorder to record appointments with my doctor. I typically miss half of what she says, so this has been a life saver! It records and transcribes the full conversation perfectly. This has allowed me to look back on appointments after the fact so I can keep my wife in the loop. Happy wife = happy life!

**Developer response:** Huzzah! I'm so happy this is working out well for you. We'd love to hear more of your story, if you could email team@medcorder.com. Thanks! -David (CEO)
