Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Voice to Text Pro at freemium against Transcribe's subscription. Voice to Text Pro also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). Transcribe's advantage is review sentiment (47% vs 31%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
