Great app only issue for me is that if I don’t periodically stop and hit save.. my work was lost. Very frustrating when you are attempting to gather important thought and conversation for a major project.
Buggy

Speechy didn’t work for me. Maybe it performs better on computers, but on my up-to-date iPad it didn’t. It was simply unable to do what it claimed. It didn’t transfer to “...other IOS supported sharing apps”, or at least not the ones I have. So I tried to export them as .txt files to “Documents” with frustrating results, tho when it did, it did so with the annoying advanced date of 2021 when it was actually 2020. Finally I gave up and just did a copy & paste...which defeats one half of the promise. It also wasn’t good on getting the words right, using wrong and illogical words even with my speaking clearly, as the hour progressed, accuracy and quality declined. Fine, I figured it had a learning curve. Also, there wasn’t any way to resume recording if there was an interruption, say my timer went off, or trying to edit while recording...I discovered Speechy was done. To continue my train of thought, I needed to start a new recording. Which left me with a stack of somewhat garbled text waiting to be copied & pasted to my text editing app of choice, for a time consuming edit. The final straw was when it just decided to stop recording about two sentences in. There I was, talking away thinking it was getting it all until I looked over...sigh...2-1/2 lines of text. Maybe it was to encourage me to buy the “Pro” version, instead, all it did was to further convince me the app was too buggy for my tastes. If it had performed as promised, I would have been happy to pay...however, if this was the “free” version, just giving little “tastes” of what the app can do, it’s mighty stingy...and buggy...and I was done with it. I did try to find a way to contact the developers for help & advice, but the only way is thru FB, and I don’t do FB. Had they made contacting them easier, I might not be so annoyed, but it is what it is.
It must be one time purchase not a monthly subscription

This app is very good for voice dictation and translation. I have tried it for English to Hindi .but the only problem is that this app developer wants monthly subscription of five dollars that is too much. first of all it should be one time purchase. How and why a common man who is not a professional writing, can give five dollars a month ?and what is his use: he can dictate speech to text only 2 to 3 pages maximum five pages per month .for that this app people want five dollars? On the other hand google translate is free totally free and they have more languages than this. In this app there should be my native language Punjabi from India also. This app is quite easy to use and type in Text is also quite accurate but the subscription per month is too much. that is why I have uninstalled and deleted this app, is why I am giving it only three stars otherwise five .
Stops recording after a few minutes

I upgraded to pro. It stops recording after a few minutes. It tried submitting feedback through the app but it won’t let me submit it because it says I don’t have a valid email address. I don’t see anywhere to put my email in.
Easy to use for text and audio!

It’s great to be able to dictate and have an accurate text created so quickly!✌️
Wayyyyyy under performed

I had to use a dictation app for a school assignment, and this thing didn’t even pick up half the words. I was expecting it to miss a couple, because my interviewee mumbled a couple time, but this was awful. It also only seemed to dictate one word at a time. It would dictate a word, then get rid of it and do another.
Disaster!!!

I purchased this app and tried to use it. It worked once before I closed it. Next time i tried to use it, it requested to purchase the Pro version in order to continue, so I did it. From this moment application stopped working!!!
Left out huge portions of conversation.

Being a type of therapist I need to have conversations or voice notes transcribed. I was very hopeful when I got the free version of this app to try. The first one was five minutes and acceptable. The second one was awful. It was leaving out huge amounts of information and was basically a waste of time. I am dealing with free-flowing conversations and this could not even complete more than one five minute session. I’m happy to pay for a product that woks. Not sure how so many people gave it five stars.
