### 5/5 — Excellent Transcribe!

*2026-08-21, version 4.23.1*

Excellent, Simple and Fast!

### 1/5 — Too needy

*2026-08-09, version 4.23.1*

Gave up as endless questions before you can even use the app. It might be good bit the barrier to entry is far too high and annoying

### 2/5 — Cuts off

*2026-08-08, version 4.23.1*

Not really the most precise transcriber and it repeatedly cuts off the last segment of the transcribed work, no matter how long the video is. It then takes your credits when you have to redo the whole thing. I can’t recommend this.

### 5/5 — Works even with poor quality video!

*2026-07-01, version 4.22.8*

I loaded my video of Spanish song from the restaurant. Transcribe was able to give an accurate transcript from poor quality video.

### 2/5 — Geld bezahlt - und nach Wechsel des Rechners erst mühsam wiederbekommen

*2026-05-19*

Die App lief ganz gut. Aber ich musste den Rechner wechseln - und scheiterte über viele Stunden daran, die teuer bezahlte Transkriptions-Zeit (Jahresabo) auf dem neuen Mac abrufen zu können. Die “Hilfe” der App war mir keine Hilfe. Erst der Support verhalf mir zu meinen Daten und zig Euro Guthaben. Eine Premienapp mit derart hohen Preisen sollte m.E. für lebensnahe Probleme deutlich nutzerfreundlicher sein.

**Developer response:** Guten Tag, bitte schauen Sie in Ihr E-Mail-Postfach — Ihr Anliegen ist bereits gelöst. Sie haben sich an unseren Support gewandt, und wir haben Ihre Daten und das verbleibende Guthaben von Ihrem vorherigen Konto auf Ihren neuen Mac übertragen. (Falls Sie unsere Antwort nicht sehen, prüfen Sie bitte auch den Spam-Ordner.)
Starten Sie die App neu, dann sollte alles erscheinen.
Es tut mir leid für den Ärger in der Zwischenzeit. Falls etwas nicht korrekt angezeigt wird, antworten Sie bitte auf unsere E-Mail, und ich kümmere mich darum.

### 5/5 — Top of the Line features

*2026-05-06, version 4.22.5*

I found the following features very helpful—
1. Transcribes m4a audio files very accurately and very fast!
2. It transcribes a 30min audio file in matter of minutes
3. It very accurately identifies different speakers & assigns speech text to them.
4. Allows me to update the name of the speakers within the app itself.
5. I can easily export the Transcript to an email recipient in many different formats such as plain text, MS WORD & PDF.
Works flawlessly!!

### 1/5 — Me

*2026-04-20, version 4.22.4*

Poor

### 3/5 — Use to be a great app

*2026-04-14, version 4.22.2*

Not sure what happened but it started to become less accurate, takes forever to upload and took away hours I didn’t use and now says I’m at 0. This use to be my go to, and transcribed well especially adding speakers assigned to the transcriptions. I’m moving on to other apps, but hopefully they fix this for future users.

### 1/5 — não tem suporte

*2026-03-21*

fiz a compra e não liberaram o uso do aplicativo

### 1/5 — This app is a scam WILL ROB YOU

*2026-03-11, version 4.22.0*

I paid $36 for 10 hours audio. They took it. No way to get it back. In app purchase. No help from Apple. None from developer. SCAM APP!! No “restore purchase” functionality,
