To export the recordings there is a built-in web server to allow you to download the files using any web browser and you can even download all files at once to a .zip archive.  Alternately for physicians, with a single click, you can upload them wirelessly using either a Wi-Fi or cellular connection to the myDictation server for transcription by your existing transcriptionist.

### 5/5 — HELP

*2017-10-02, version 2.0.1*

Depuis la mise à jour de l’iOS 11 sur l’iPhone... l’application plante, impossible de donner un titre à l’enregistrement... l’écran se fige !
Une mise à jour please. 
Cordialement.

### 4/5 — Not working

*2017-09-30, version 2.0.1*

Please issues an update. After I installed IOS 11 it is not working. Thanks

### 1/5 — Unreliable !

*2014-03-09, version 1.5.0*

The actual recording part of this app works well. What doesn't work is The servers that are supposed to be supported by the company. Nearly every weekend, the servers shut down and my dictation cannot be uploaded. Consequently stat or urgent transcription cannot be done and I am left to go back to the old fallback, Dragon dictate. There is no customer service available on the weekends. I think the developer who is an orthopedist thinks that just because he wasn't on call as an orthopedist that he doesn't have to be on call as a software owner. That is crap! Complete disrespect for the chumps who bought it.

### 1/5 — Dications are held hostage until subscribing

*2013-05-27, version 1.5.0*

I started using this app, thinking it was a good, functional, easy to use app. Until I got told my "trial subscription expired" and I needed to pay a recurring fee to re-enable the ability to download my dictations.
This is not a one off purchase yet the app is built as one - the webserver to download it is local to the app. They are just locking the files in there until you pay a recurring fee.
To me, that's unethical business - charging for a "service" when there is no service being provided.
Oh and they deliberatley don't let you download them through iTunes either - they have you locked in and you'll pay because you're held to hostage.
I want to swear, but that means this won't get published and they will still peddle unethical behaviour to others...

### 5/5 — Working great

*2012-09-21, version 1.5.0*

Have been using this app for over 2 years for dictation of home inspections. I can dictate my inspections upload to their web site (for a fee ) and my office can dowload and begin typing into report. You do have to pay for the service but is well worth if you use it. Customer supprt not good. But very happy with app.

### 1/5 — Wonderful, terrible app

*2012-09-12, version 1.5.0*

I had actually thought I had found the dictation app I was looking for: one that would allow me to rewind my dictated notes by five seconds, which actually isn't a feature in any other dictation app I've seen so far. 

However, not too long after I had recorded multiple interviews, my notes had suddenly vanished. All of those interviews, just gone.

I went to this page and read the following words: "The app includes a free 30 day subscription." That's right. This isn't a free app at all. It's a bait and switch. And it cost me a dozen interviews. 

The worst thing about it is I would have gladly paid a few dollars up front to have an app this good. 

ZipChart Inc. has lost me as a customer.

### 1/5 — Vorsicht: FINGER WEG!

*2012-06-02, version 1.5.0*

Vorsicht! Du diktierst was, und dann möchtest du es gerne weiterleiten, oder? Da wirst du dich wundern: WENN DU DEINE AUFNAHMEN WIRKLICH NUTZEN WILLST, MUSS DU DICH REGISTRIEREN LASSEN ... UND DORT WERDEN DATEN ABGEFRAGT, DIE DU SICHERLICH NICHT GERNE WEITERGIBST, NÄMLICH DEINE KREDITKARTENDATEN!!! Ich wäre ja ganz, ganz vorsichtig und würde die Finger davon lassen.
Die Anzahl der Informationen und die Art der Daten deuten darauf hin, dass es sich hierbei um eine der Apps handelt, vor der die User-Gemeinschaft gewarnt werden sollte!!

### 1/5 — schade

*2012-01-11, version 1.5.0*

Wirklich das beste Diktier- und Voicememo App von der Funktion her. Für den sporadischen Gebrauch ist das Abo mittlerweile aber zu teuer.

+Editieren
+Aufnahme an beliebiger Stelle fortsetzen
+einfaches Schneiden
+Visuelle Wellenform
etc.

-teures Abo

### 1/5 — Truly awful interface!

*2011-06-15, version 1.4*

The interface is horribly unintuitive and a horror to use.

### 1/5 — Attention Arnaque !!

*2011-05-23, version 1.4*

Les enregistrements sont bloqués sur le téléphone... A moins de payer une fortune sur leur site !!!!!
