User Reviews

Users generally praise the app for its accuracy, speed, and life-improving usefulness in noisy settings. However, multiple reviews stress price and subscription concerns, inconsistent accuracy in challenging scenarios, and billing/account glitches that impede ongoing use.
Pros
  • High accuracy and fast transcription.
  • Very helpful for people with hearing loss and in noisy environments.
  • Improves daily life and communication (lifesaver in meetings, church services, and social situations).
Cons
  • Pricing is expensive and the subscription terms are perceived as confusing or unfair (automatic charges, high annual cost).
  • Transcription accuracy can be inconsistent, especially at longer distances or in crowded/noisy environments.
  • Billing/account issues hinder use (subscription problems, inability to access after paying).
  • Updates can degrade usability or features (perceived UI/behavior changes reduce usefulness).

Just what I needed! My sister came to live with me and she has become deaf late in life. This live transcription is a lifesaver. It gives us a chance to communicate without having to write things down.

Hello, I got this for an elder friend who is extremely hard of hearing, and in general it serves her well. However, she reports that she can’t hear well while the transcriber is running. It seems her hearing aid speaker audio is ducked for some reason. I don’t understand why that would be, given that the app output is not audio (no danger of feedback or conflict). I have looked in the settings and have not found a control for this. It’s a thought, app developers!

I pulled up this app at an event that I was attending with my family after I saw my mom start to check out because the audio system was so bad she couldn’t understand. I could barely make it out myself but the app picked up the six panel interviewees voices amazingly well with little errors. My dad even leaned in and we all ended up just reading what was being said. I loved that it also recorded the whole thing so I was able to send it to the participants too. I’ll be putting this on my mom’s phone permanently soon. Thank you!
