### 1/5 — scam

*2025-08-21*

Previously, the developer offered a lifetime free professional version, but now it turns out that what was obtained was not a lifetime free professional version, but only a basic version.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We fixes these bugs and hope it will work as expected. Again apologize for any inconvenience. Make sure you are in updated version.

### 1/5 — False claim

*2025-08-21*

This app was supposed to be lifetime free if you subscribe through apps gone free for the day, which I did claim, but I just tried it now a few days later and the subscription is gone,  and it wanted me to pay.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We understand your frustration and sincerely apologize for any confusion. Your Lifetime subscription still includes unlimited Basic Transcription and Summaries as originally promised. However, Pro Transcription requires expensive third-party AI services that cost us significantly per use. Unfortunately, we cannot sustainably offer these premium AI features to Lifetime users without severely impacting our ability to maintain and improve the app for everyone. We must cover these external service costs to keep the app running. We appreciate your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience. Your Lifetime benefits for Basic features remain fully intact. - Live Transcribe Pro Team

### 1/5 — Scam !

*2025-08-21*

Please check your purchase history to see if you still have the premium package. If you only received the basic package, then this developer has defrauded our entire community by offering a false lifetime free option.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2025-08-14*

For one thing, I speak, hit transcribe, and it does nothing.  Also, it's in portrait-mode only, meaning I have to turn my iPad Pro with attached keyboard sideways.  Thirdly, it doesn't transcribe from website url's.  Please make this app operational; otherwise, it's useless.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and patience. We make this app mostly for the  d/Deaf and Hard of Hearing and we’re a small team working hard to fix the issues and improve the app. We appreciate your support and understanding!

### 1/5 — Decepcionada

*2026-03-29*

Cuándo probe la aplicación funcionó muy bien, pero cuando haces uso constante de ella empieza a cambiar las letras a otros caracteres ( árabe o Indio) y estando en español de repente empieza a escribir en inglés

**Developer response:** Hola Noravalle,

Gracias por reportar este problema. Tras investigarlo, identificamos la causa raíz: en versiones anteriores, el código de idioma seleccionado no se estaba enviando correctamente a nuestro motor de transcripción en tiempo real, lo que provocaba que el modelo infiriera el idioma por su cuenta y derivara hacia otros caracteres o al inglés.

Esto ha sido corregido en la última actualización. Ahora el idioma seleccionado se pasa correctamente en cada sesión, lo que resulta en una transcripción mucho más precisa y estable en español.

Le recomendamos actualizar a la versión más reciente desde el App Store. Gracias por su paciencia.

Atentamente,
El equipo de iScribe

### 1/5 — Audio Vanished

*2026-03-05*

Terrible app!!! I had recorded a meeting I was in at city hall and once I hit save the audio. The audio completely vanished and I reached out to support for assistance on the matter four times I never received a response. I feel scammed by this.

**Developer response:** Hi, we're sorry about your experience. We'd love to talk to you and make this right — please reach out to us at admin@harshvatechnologies.com.

### 1/5 — Can not add words to a dictionary

*2026-03-01*

Not so good
I purchased this subscription because researching said it had a dictionary capability. So far I have not been able to find it.
Emailed support and did get quick answers before purchasing but now I don’t get quick responses,
May have to cancel my subscription.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback.

We would like to clarify that we have never stated that the app includes a dictionary feature. At this time, that functionality is not available. It may be considered in the future, but our current focus is on improving dictation support for people who are hard of hearing.

We are sorry to hear that you feel responses have been slower recently. That is not our intention, and we aim to respond to all users as quickly as possible.

If you are currently in a trial period, you can cancel at any time through your subscription settings.

We respectfully ask that reviews reflect the actual features of the app. Posting negative feedback based on a feature we do not offer can mislead other users.

We appreciate your understanding.

### 1/5 — Cheating app- avoid at any cost

*2026-02-15, version 1.40.2*

Purchased pro plan but always request to purchase again every time transcribe. Do not but this app

### 1/5 — Horrible app do not try

*2026-02-14*

I HATE THIS APP BECAUSE IT DOESN’T WANT ME TO TRY TO TRANSCRIBE EVERYTHING WHEN I REACH THE LIMITS!!!! GET RID OF PRO NOW!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Scam app - avoid at any cost

*2026-01-03, version 1.40.1*

Bought pro version. Upgrade app and unable to restore pro and use app. This is absolutely scam and cheating app. Do not install.

### 1/5 — Deaf

*2025-11-15, version 1.30.7*

Distance is your voice only.Does not stay on. Goes off in seconds. You have to keep tapping your phone to keep it on. No customer service.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-08-28*

For some reasons, it doesn’t work!

Update: Now, they took away my subscription, I have to pay and subscribe again. Great!

### 1/5 — False claim

*2025-08-23, version 1.30.4*

This app was supposed to be lifetime free if you subscribe through apps gone free for the day, which I did claim, but I just tried it now a few days later and the subscription is gone,  and it wanted me to pay.

UPDATE: Developers response is more lies, proving this was not a mistake and a deliberate deception. Your app is always free, it was lifetime access to the pro version that was offered on AppsGoneFree. You put it on there just to get more people to download your free app in hopes the much larger exposure would get you more subscriptions. Despicable. Why did the AppsGoneFree page say it was $99.99 with a line through it as if we were getting the lifetime pro subscription?  Go ahead and lie some more.

### 1/5 — trash

*2025-08-22*

The previously purchased lifetime professional version has now been changed to the basic version.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We fixes these bugs and hope it will work as expected. Again apologize for any inconvenience. Make sure you are in updated version.

### 5/5 — Best, but

*2026-07-19*

I had trouble getting it to work because of a badly formatted opening screen. They were responsive to the problem, and it now works on my phone, but not my iPad.
Once working, it blows the competition away. It is fast and 95% accurate. Even offline it does the job.
The only remaining gripe it has a profanity filter. I’m a grown adult and not offended by words comedians use. The filter also cuts out some anatomical terms, that seems ridiculous for an app originally intended for health applications. In any case there should be a way to turn this off.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your valuable feedback! We're currently working on the issues you described, and we hope you'll soon see both the iPad bug and the profanity filter fixed. Thanks again for helping us improve iScribe!

### 5/5 — Quite working after one day

*2026-04-15*

I made a big mistake by not waiting seven days to pay for this app. It stops transcribing after one page of text. Emails to the support desk remain unanswered.  I will keep searching for transcribing software that helps with understanding what is said in meetings

**Developer response:** Hi ,

Thank you for your feedback and we sincerely apologize for the experience you had, particularly for not receiving a response from our support team.

The issue you described — transcription stopping after a page of text — appears to have been a bug in an earlier version of the app. We have since made significant improvements and this has been resolved in the latest update.

We completely understand your frustration and we are sorry we let you down on the support side. If you are willing to give the app another try, please update to the latest version from the App Store and feel free to reach out to us again — we will make sure your message gets a proper response this time.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.

Warm regards,
The iScribe Team

### 5/5 — Very useful!
