I never left any review until today. This app really SUCKS! It forced me to install 3 extensions and still can not work! Are you out of your mind ?

USELESS! I dictate my field notes daily when driving between jobs in my work van (I'm a home inspector). The google dictate in my phone is very accurate, even with transcribing technical terms (thermal bridging, truss joists, differential settlement, etc.). I therefore decided to try out dictation on my home computer. Microsoft's built-in dictation in Office 365 is ok, but not nearly as good as Google. I therefore tried this app, since it advertised itself as the Google Dictate app, however this tool's accuracy is ridiculously poor. And it's not the device, I'm using the same headset I use in my van when travelling at over 120 with the windows down.
