| 2024-09-11 |  | | I only just started using this particular app. However, I put it on the continuous setting (I'm not sure why and it probably wasn't necessary) And I find it picked up my words - my speech very well and I am uncertain of this but it seemed to get better the more I used it I think it might catch on to your speech patterns - words in the way in which you speak. Anyway so far so good! |
| 2024-08-31 |  | | I like that the mic stays on until you turn it off. But 1) It messes up a LOT of words I say, even in a quiet room and even if I try to enunciate well. 2) It has a weird glitch where every few minutes it just misses a few words, which is super inconvenient because that's easy for me to miss. So I am just going to find a different app |
| 2024-08-03 |  | | Not impressed. Would like to spend some time checking it out but your stupid full screen Ads make it to difficult to do. I should not have to see this and be required to click "Continue to App" in a small location at top of screen everytime I do something different in the app. Might be a good app, but will never know because of this annoyance. I get it, you want to sell an app, but at least provide a grace period of "no Ads" for try and buy users. |
| 2024-07-15 |  | | Was great until suffocated with ADS to where the app can't even be used. Thanks a lot. You just ruined what WAS good. Stupid! Update: Of course ads make sense WHEN USED WITH DISCRETION, not obliterated with ads every second, nor for every action taken, making it miserable to use & where I lose train of thought. It makes you look greedy, like you can't even let a person have a good user experience to even want to upgrade. Making use of the app this miserable is not the way to be successful. |
| 2024-06-16 |  | | Just downloaded yesterday, first impression, but i think this product strikes the right balance between function & simplicity. It is not as capable NOR AS FRUSTRATING as Dragon Anywhere. Biggest plus is accuracy. Even when I tested it by going to airplane mode, it still took my dictation, though it wasn't able to handle punctuation as punctuation in airplane mode. For my needs this app is reasonably priced and may become my choice for longer-form text creation. Moto g stylus 2023 5G |
| 2024-02-21 |  | | First try - I wrote several pages, and the pop-up ads started opening on top of each other with no way to close any of them. I had to resort to closing the app and losing all my work to get out. When I tried to reopen the app, it was just a white blank page. I tried closing all apps, rebooting, power off, etc. and nothing worked. Every time I open it, I just get a blank white page. I had to delete this ap from my phone. It was looking pretty good until that happened. The ads locked up the app. |
| 2024-01-27 |  | | Poor performance. Lags like it's a snail in molasses and fails to catch even clearly spoken words. No, it's not a mic issue. Not only is the lag and inconsistent speech recognition a big problem, but after almost every attempt when I had to stop recording to reset it and try again, I'd get an ad. Almost makes the problems feel intentional to get you to retry over and over again and rack up the ad revenue. I'm not against a free app using ads to make money, but I do have my limits. Uninstalled. |
| 2023-12-10 |  | | This is the best speech to text app I've found so far. It picks up the words clearly and doesn't put the word "period" for a sentence ending punctuation. The one problem that it has is that it neither understands the words "new paragraph" nor even puts the words themselves when I say them. It's an odd exception but livable. |
| 2023-12-06 |  | | For a simple speech to text app, it's pretty accurate. I have carpal tunnel syndrome in both wrists. Using the PC keyboard is very difficult now. I used Dragon To Go app but to renew it's very expensive. Since I'm retired, I just want a simple app for emails, etc. Can't beat price/yr. for accuracy. Thx. For assistance for the handicapped. |
| 2023-11-29 |  | | I've read, & tried a number of dictation and speech to text apps. None of them scored as high as "Write by Voice: Speech to Text." (WV:ST) Well, out of 1092 words that I spoke WV:ST got 1075 words correct. Where I come from that's a whopping 98.44% accuracy rate. As a scientist, I fell in love with your app's accuracy. Now I ask of your team. Do you have a YouTube video where geezers like me can watch & learn all that this program offers us. Congratulations on your amazing job! #1 Geezer Fan! |
