It's a good idea, and it works some of the time with people in the room, which isn't what I needed, since I read lips very well. I tried to use it to understand media without captions and phone calls, and it only told me what I said, not what was coming over the phone. NOT very helpful.

Doesn't do anything except show adverts and ask to pay for upgrade.

Doesn't work at all. I had to press the "listen" button a dozen times before it responded and after that I tried calling and nothing was written down.

This app would be awesome if it could get what you say correct. Has no way to make edits, so you have to clear complete text and start over until it's right. Also hangs up like previously mentioned.

I rejected the option to remove ads. Now I would like to pay for an ad free version but can't find a way to do that.
