### 3/5 — Almost there.....

*2020-03-29*

This is great at picking up medical terms. I am a radiologist and this picks up most words really well.

However, I report in stages and make adjustments as I dictate. At the moment when you have finished a dictation you cannot go back and continue adding to it. AAAARGH.

### 4/5 — Wow! Now I’m a believer!

*2018-06-13*

I must’ve used nearly the entire panoply of Nuance Dragon dictation applications on PC, Apple Mac and, more recently, on both my iPhone and my iPad with the Dragon Anywhere app.

The PC and Mac versions are hideously expensive, whilst the ios versions require a monthly payment. 

I downloaded this app about a hundred years ago, didn’t believe for one instant that it used the Nuance speech to text engine, and so, apart from the odd boredom induced dalliance I ignored it.

However, on looking at this app more closely, I’m astonished to find that it’s accuracy is at least reminiscent of the Dragon products—and this with an inadequate front-end.

I have a few queries:

1 Do Nuance let anybody incorporate their speech to text engine into their apps.

2. Does this app have access to the latest version of the Nuance speech to text engine or is it languishing with an old version.

3. Do the developers have any plans for future enhancements.

### 3/5 — Podia ser melhor

*2014-08-16*

Bom entendimento, mas mentiroso quanto ao uso no Whatsapp!

### 4/5 — So far, so good

*2014-07-22*

I checked out a few of these apps and so far this seems to be the one that works best.  It is easy to use, accurate (I was surprised at the accuracy), and allows you to email, SMS or paste to other apps.

### 4/5 — хорошее!

*2014-06-02*

все отлично распознает! единственный минус в том, что при нажатии на кнопку начинает записывать не сразу, а через долю секунды. но это не критично.

### 4/5 — Muito bom

*2014-05-26*

Ajuda muito.

### 2/5 — App bom, mas não loga no Facebook

*2014-05-18*

Problema no login com Facebook
App Not Setup: The developers of this app have not set up this app properly for Facebook Login.

### 1/5 — Uma merda

*2014-05-09*

Maior perda de dinheiro! 🔫

### 1/5 — HORRIBLE DO NOY GET!

*2014-05-01*

I saw most reviews rated this is good but even a dollar it still pisses me off I wasted it because it gets almost every word wrong I promise you that it isn't worth the time or even the dollar you buy it with!I got this for my essays so I didn't have to type or write them all out now I'm SOL great.

### 1/5 — Perda de tempo

*2014-05-01*

Acabei de jogar dinheiro fora! Puta porcaria não funciona!!!

### 1/5 — Parece que funciona mas não convence

*2014-03-26*

O app erra o tempo todo nem dá graça usar!!!! Enche mais o saco ter que ficar corrigindo o texto que ele "ouve" errado!!! 
Não recomendo!

### 1/5 — Nul archi nul de l'arnaque

*2014-03-21*

Il écrit absolument n'importe quoi.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2014-03-08*

I just spent a dollar for this program, because I needed a program that would let me dictate longer passages than Dragon. It didn't, fair enough. However, I have to let you people know that it literally got easily 75% or more of the words dictated completely wrong. The paragraph was completely undistinguishable from what was spoken. I speak clear, Midwestern English that is easily identified by my Siri app on my iPhone. It was comical, but not worth a dollar.

### 1/5 — Bad App

*2021-07-04*

Disappointing at best, first attempt after loading, one paragraph was captured then it froze.  The payment was made and 30 sec later it doesn’t work.  Avoid this one

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2020-06-13*

Absolute useless app. Uses apples inbuilt VR which anyone can access by pressing mic button on keyboard. You can’t see what you are saying and screen appears later with some gibberish.

### 1/5 — Trying to use it

*2019-08-31, version 1.3*

Does not connect to my microphone. Hoping for a fix.

### 1/5 — have a bug

*2018-12-23, version 1.3*

I can’t use it, because no MC right

### 1/5 — I want My money back

*2018-01-25*

This does not work. I’m calling apple right now

### 1/5 — Péssimo

*2017-02-22*

Péssimo aplicativo. Não reconhece nem metade das palavras e usa o mesmo motor de reconhecimento de voz de outros aplicativos grátis.

### 1/5 — Фигня

*2015-09-09*

Бестолковая программа

### 1/5 — Fraco

*2015-08-13*

Só grava um pequeno trecho

### 1/5 — Ерунда

*2014-10-08*

Такие приложения по моему одни и те же клепают. Интерфейс на английском, распознавание языка так себе, с watsapp не контачит!

### 1/5 — Voleur

*2014-08-18*

Ne marche pas c de la m....

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2021-06-15*

Enfin une reconnaissance vocale digne de ce nom!

### 5/5 — Very accurate and value for money

*2020-05-19*

I was sceptical of buying an app whose last review was six years back and rated five stars .it is significantly cheap and very value for money .there were no other and reviews since. however ,I decided to download it by paying a front-runner than using an evaluation version which doesn't exist . I am presently surprised how accurate it is stop I am actually writing this review have after dictating it to the app itself . it can handle the accent of individual countries . I am using it with an Indian accent as much as I can.
(The punctuations are mine- but the main text is a text to speech conversion by the app).

### 5/5 — Excelente!

This is a great app for those still with the IPhone 4 without speak text.  It's fast and accurate, much better then other dictation apps I've tried.
