### 5/5 — Speech is the best

*2026-02-02*

This app is very good and thanks. I speaking any language very excellent thanks again

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2025-06-12*

This app is like magic. I didn’t know it was possible for AI to accurately understand multiple languages or to identify who is talking. Using it for meeting transcripts and for live translation when I need to communicate with someone who doesn’t speak English

### 1/5 — IPhone version is broken

*2026-05-16*

I have thoroughly enjoyed this app while using an android phone for the last few months now that I’ve switched to an iPhone I’m no longer can get this app to work correctly.
Not only are the words that the app is saying it’s hearing wrong, but it is also translating wrong.
Then I tried to go into the custom prompt to fix the translation, but the button is stuck behind the keyboard and there’s no way to get that button.
Definitely not worth $20 a month for pro!!!

### 1/5 — Don’t pay

*2026-04-01*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Transcription upload issues

*2026-03-04*

Bought the subscription which is not almost 30 dollars a month, with significant issues uploading the transcript. 2 out 5 times, transcription failed to upload. I feel like it is a waste of quite a lot of money. This needs to be urgently fixed.

### 2/5 — Что происходит

*2026-04-23*

Я не понимаю, почему как только я скачиваю приложение, все работает и хорошо переводит речь в текст, но через раз перестало и запись идет, а сам текст не пишется, я не понимаю, почему он не работает, то ли заблокировали в России, но с впн не работает также

### 2/5 — Poor memory & connectivty

*2026-03-11*

When you switch from desktop app to mobile app as your battery runs low, 
You lose the recording as the desktop app disconnects immediately without saving the text. 

I lost 90 mins of translation. 

I don’t recommend.

### 3/5 — Gute App mit Verbesserungspotenzial bei Stabilität und Timecodes

*2026-01-29*

Die App ist insgesamt sehr gut und eignet sich auch für lange Audios. Leider friert der Transkriptionsprozess häufig ein, sodass man nicht weitermachen kann. Wenn dieses Problem behoben würde, könnte ich mir ein Abonnement gut vorstellen.

Die Preise finde ich aktuell etwas zu hoch, solange diese Fehler bestehen. Eine wichtige Verbesserung wäre außerdem die Anzeige von Timecodes in den Transkriptionen und im Export. Ohne Timecodes ist es schwierig, bestimmte Stellen oder falsch transkribierte Wörter im Audio schnell wiederzufinden.

### 4/5 — 너무 좋아

*2026-03-10*

근데 비싸 ,

### 5/5 — Amazon

*2026-08-11*

The only working keyboard dictate and type that works on multiple languages when Microsoft and Google are fading, and the apple itself is a disaster

### 5/5 — Fabulous translator

*2026-08-09*

Great simple to use for speach to text no complications and good to recognise voices/ppl in a meeting

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-07-21*

Good

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Best audio transcriber and translator with a helpful AI tool!

*2026-06-08*

I just hope I can get more options to play around with the AI. Like more options for prompts and permanent memory updates or model data to help it better contextualise what I say.

### 5/5 — game changer forver grateful

*2026-06-04*

it helps me to hear 
 people’s talk with me now🥺…

### 5/5 — BEST for multilingual code switching

*2026-02-22*

Tamil-English code-switching (often called “Tanglish”) is difficult because speakers mix languages mid-sentence — sometimes mid-word. This app accurately transcribes both languages flawlessly and the custom prompt feature allows you to manipulate transcript to get summaries and action items in English - fantastic for my generation who often combines languages to communicate, especially when working through a family project ( joint property repairs ) that requires frequent meetings/calls and we need notes to keep broader family up to date.

### 5/5 — Помогает глухим

*2026-02-22*

Очень качественная расшифровка речи в текст. Техногиганты Янд и Гугл не могут так качественно переводить
(Да у Гугл есть на анлроиде, а на iOS почему не смогли сделать?)

Спасибо Soniox !
Умеет фильтровать звуки на улице (например, звук машин убирает)

### 5/5 — A life changing app

*2026-02-13*

As an expat living in a foreign country this app opens a window into another world for me. 

I downloaded it and had it transcribe as my wife was talking with a taxi driver. 

It was so fast and accurate. I've downloaded this for Tet holiday. I'm looking forward to seeing how this can help me communicate with my wife's family.

### 5/5 — Best Ever

*2026-02-10*

Best translate app and transcribe model ever. Why are you guys so low key?

### 5/5 — Can translate Levantine Arabic dialect!

*2026-02-08*

Can translate Levantine Arabic dialect!
