The only missing feature is call recording, which other apps like Voicea AI (I think) have. The only workaround I found is to record on computer while having the conversation on the phones speaker.... thanks ### 5/5 — I can’t say enough about this app *2024-07-27* 1. Great customer support.

Even when importing with text Transcribe will do an independent transcription and it will be better than that of the service I used before. 3. Ability to add photos to text AFTER the recording is big for me. 4. You’re able to import, export, sync to and from various services. 5. YMMV but this app has never ceased to amaze me. **Developer response:** We appreciate your thoughtful feedback on our support and features!

It does everything I want it to do, record a lecture, sermon, newscast & will even transcribe from an audio file. What?!! I would have been a straight A student if I would have had this back in the day. I think I’ll write my own version just for the challenge. Cudos to you... great job! **Developer response:** We truly appreciate your kind words and enthusiasm! ### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing!! *2024-07-27* I don’t know another better app of its kind.

Very impressive service that puts Apple’s dictation button to shame. **Developer response:** We appreciate your feedback on the accuracy of our transcription service, especially with challenging accents—it means a lot to us! ### 5/5 — Great productivity tool *2024-06-20* This has improved my work life so much. With back to back meetings there is no time to sit back and think through meeting notes. Nor is there sufficient time to take all the notes during the meeting, frankly. This app solves that problem. Its tremendous value is in being able to refer back to transcribed meeting notes. **Developer response:** We're delighted to know that our app has enhanced your productivity. Thank you for sharing your feedback! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-06-20* Loving Transcribe. Now I can do diary entries and write book chapters on my mile-long walk to work. Accuracy is generally very good, near perfect after I got a Bluetooth 5.0 headset with mic that goes out to in front of my nose. Deafening garbage trucks rumbling by on Boston’s streets don’t even throw off the accuracy! **Developer response:** We're delighted to hear how much you're enjoying using the app on your walks! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. ### 5/5 — Excellent for students *2024-05-23* worth the premium fee ### 5/5 — This app is enthralling and so useful you won’t believe it *2024-05-23* After experimenting for six minutes I purchased the entire premium package you will not be sorry that you invested in this application if you were a student to Life for a student of academics sir good friend that wants to remember how your conversations went and hear yourself interacting with others then you must afford yourself is brilliant piece of technology! Dr. PatrickHart in Seattle Nine **Developer response:** We appreciate your enthusiastic feedback about the app! It's wonderful to hear how much you're benefiting from it. Thank you for sharing your experience! ### 5/5 — Ant... *2024-05-23* Needed a recorder to aid I note taking in class. I came across this and added it to my cell phone to use. Found it to work great. It picks up everything so if there is a great deal of rustling paper it will interfere with the recording but otherwise works wonders. I recommend sitting as close to the speaker as possible. **Developer response:** We appreciate your insights on recording clarity and your recommendation! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-05-23* Im an editor for my school paper and this app is amazing to get get interviews, it makes my writing better and it speeds up the writing process, thank you 😃 ### 5/5 — 👍 *2024-04-27* app has been a game-changer for me when comes to live transcribing text from voice speech.

Amazing. Not only did the transaction happen in real time but it caught 90+% of the text correctly. (90% is not an actual number just a reference to how accurate the transcription was) Areas to be improved Differentiate different speakers Improve accuracy Simplify post transcript editing process ORIGINAL This service is sloooooowww. Compare to descript. It’s also highly inaccurate if there is any other noise other than the intended speakers. Improve on the concept and my rating will change but for now the service is unreliable. **Developer response:** We appreciate your feedback and are glad you're loving the improvements! Your suggestions about speaker differentiation, accuracy, and editing are valuable, and we encourage you to use the support options in the app to share more details with us. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not accurate *2022-06-20* Doesn’t turn my words into text very well **Developer response:** We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with our app. We are constantly working to improve the accuracy of our voice-to-text conversion.

It would be very cool to have more language options, that it was able to transcribe French, Spanish, Portuguese and any other language too. **Developer response:** We appreciate your feedback and are glad you enjoy the app! Your suggestion about expanding language options is valuable, and we’ll keep it in mind. Thank you for sharing! ### 5/5 — Great app!! *2024-09-10* Phenomenal app. Many recorders do one but not all of the features. As an old school guy who hates taking notes during meetings on e devices and as a guy whose hearing is slipping. This is just what the doctor ordered. Press a button than engage with eye contact and not become distracted. Keep it free and live off ads. Or it will die. For now fantastic. Please don’t screw it up **Developer response:** We're grateful for your kind words and insights! It's wonderful to hear that our app is making your meetings more engaging and focused. Your feedback truly matters to us! ### 5/5 — Great for Essay Drafts *2024-09-10* As a graduate student, I am often writing paper and responses. However, I absolutely hate writing. I love using Transcribe as a way to talk capture my thoughts and ideas. Once these are written down, it is much easier for me to go back and edit. It has cut drastically cut the time it takes me to write essays. **Developer response:** We deeply appreciate your feedback and are glad it simplifies your writing process and saves you time! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
