Mr.6 Win		 en 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 ?

Eric Parent		 en 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.

Charles Lewis		 en Do you people think it is better than the speech recognition system that comes with Word 2019? I am not sure yet. My old Dragon system was better than either of these, I think.

Erskin Hansen		 en I had some quirks getting my mic recognized, but that was because I screwed up the settings with an app the other day. Once my mic was recognized properly things worked out like a charm. Full disclosure... I was using a headset mic. I wouldn't try this using a laptop built-in mic, you're just asking for trouble if you're doing that. All in all, I'm rather impressed with how things worked out. 5 stars!

Cheryl Cade		 en It's picking up about half the words in each sentence, and 25% of the words it transcribes are wrong. I could have typed it out faster and with many less errors.
