Voice Dictation !

It actually records for about a minute. It should sa in the description that you can only record for about a minute at a time before it automatically clicks off with no warning. Also, when I clicked the copy function, I tried to paste it as a test into a text message or a Note - I could not figure out how to do either. It just says "Use the paste function." That another reason for my rating - there are no clear directions.

Software does mediocre job at accurately recognizing words. My big complaint is it only records for a short time (15 seconds maybe) before cutting you off without notification.

I know, that I am supposed to write constructive criticism. However, when it comes to this app I have absolutely nothing to say. Scrap it! Everything I just said now, in this review, was done using voice recognition, the built-in iPhone one. Not only does your app not even come close to the standards of the voice recognition of the keyboard, it gets every word wrong. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating, every second or third word. Why would anyone buy this app, when you can download it for free, and when they have a perfectly good voice recognition on the keyboards anyway. The app is useless, you can't even store notes! Move onto another project.

Sure, truly function might seem like a mediocre description for someone that has given this app a 5-star rating, but think about how man apps make promises and fall way short of what they're supposed to do. So far, this app has successfully transcribed every word, verbatim, that I have spoken. I've even tried to slur my speech (deliberately), but it still transcribed all my words successfully. The only wish I have is that it could transcribe the end of each sentence with the appropriate punctuation. So, truly functional, in my book, means that it is truly impressive! I've even placed the app on the bottom line as part of my top-tier apps, so I can access it quickly. I highly recommend this app.

I'm a native English speaker (US). Just tested this about a dozen times with a lot of background noise. There were only two times it didn't notice one or two words but even with that, the recognition and translation were good enough to send a text and have the recipient understand the text. I even tested curse words and it recognized them, albeit inserting an asterisk in place of one letter :-) This is a handy little app for times when physically typing a text is impossible.
