Read full description

The Solventum Mobile Microphone is a mobile application that allows clinicians to dictate using the Solventum Fluency Direct Desktop Application without the need for a physical microphone attached to the PC. Once the mobile application is paired one time with a Solventum Fluency Direct User ID, the user of the application can dictate using Solventum Fluency Direct running on any physical desktop or virtual device without a need for docking, Bluetooth or physical connections. The application uses secure data transmission to stream audio from the mobile device directly to Solventum Fluency Direct running elsewhere. It builds on the same cloud-based Solventum Speech Understanding (tm) technology powering all Solventum solutions, so existing clinician voice profiles can be used easily and instantly for optimal accuracy.

Imprivata ID is a secure authentication application that helps improve clinical workflows for medical professionals for electronic prescribing of controlled substances (EPCS), remote network access, and others. For EPCS, Imprivata ID enables Hands Free Authentication, a breakthrough solution that delivers exceptional speed, security, and convenience for providers while meeting DEA two-factor authentication requirements for EPCS. Instead of typing a manual token code, Hands Free Authentication wirelessly retrieves and verifies a one-time password from the Imprivata ID application on the user’s mobile device, even if it is locked and/or in the user’s pocket, which delivers unparalleled speed and convenience with minimal impact to clinical workflows. For remote network access, Imprivata ID enables fast, convenient push notifications. Users receive a notification on their mobile phone asking them to verify their identity. The user simply swipes the notification from the lock screen of their device and taps “Approve,” and the second factor of authentication is complete.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Imprivata ID holds the better App Store score, 2.1 against 1.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Imprivata ID has 49 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of Solventum Mobile Microphone's written reviews are positive against 20% of Imprivata ID's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Solventum Mobile Microphone ships an update every 3 months, Imprivata ID every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
