1. [R2] Transcribe 5/5 · US Top of the Line features: I found the following features very helpful, 1. Transcribes m4a audio files very accurately and very fast! 2. It transcribes a 30min audio file in matter of minutes 3. It very accurately identifies different speakers & assigns speech text to them. 4. Allows me to update the name of the speakers within the app itself. 5. I can easily export the Transcript to an email recip
2. [R8] Transcribe 5/5 · US Transcribe is great!: It transcribes with precision from the languages I use, and accepts audio texts from multiple sources. I love it.
3. [R60] Transcribe 5/5 · US Great Product: I've used Transcribe over the past several weeks to create meeting transcripts and the accuracy was typically 94% or above with very few corrections being necessary. It's easy to use, and for an occasional user like myself, it's a very cost effective solution for transcription. Highly recommend!
4. [R65] Speech to Text Dictation AI 5/5 · US IBN Dictate: Dictate Pro Version 5.31 is a great app. I use it on my iPhone and export my transcriptions to my notes and IMac. Its’ transcriptions are amazingly accurate. And when I have questions, I get really helpful feedback within hours. I recommend you give it a try.
5. [R32] Transcribe 5/5 · US So easy to use!: I used this on a whim to transcribe a court case and it took less than 5 min from download to learn what to do and do it. 30 min transcript broken down with speaker and time.
6. [R41] Transcribe 5/5 · US Great customer service!: I had a problem with a purchase, and the Support Team solved it easily and effectively in a very responsive manner. Not only an excellent transcript service, but also 100% reliable and responsive.
7. [R59] Transcribe 1/5 · US Stole my money: I downloaded the app onto my computer after trying the free 15 minutes. I have around 10 hours of transcription to do, so I bought the 10 hours. Those hours never showed up on my account. I got in contact with their support team twice, got instructions that made no sense and didn’t line up with anything I was seeing. Brought in tech help who also found their instructions for findin
8. [R62] Speech to Text Dictation AI 5/5 · US Bad update: This used to be a five star app before the upgrade last week. I loved it. Now it has over large symbols and one bright red which is distracting as you dictate. Then there used to be a one touch button to send by email which I usually do, but that was removed and one now has to go a tedious process of copying, opening another app then pasting and sending. Hope these can be restored!
9. [R3] Transcribe 3/5 · US Use to be a great app: Not sure what happened but it started to become less accurate, takes forever to upload and took away hours I didn’t use and now says I’m at 0. This use to be my go to, and transcribed well especially adding speakers assigned to the transcriptions. I’m moving on to other apps, but hopefully they fix this for future users.
10. [R12] Transcribe 3/5 · US Many missed words: It seems like a great idea, but I would say 1/3 of the phrases had miss "read" words making the statement wrong or confusing. I was playing a previously recorded conversation but it was clear, no other noises...
11. [R19] Transcribe 1/5 · US Doesn’t transcribe: Using this app was a waste of my time, it didn’t transcribe anything. Deleted it
12. [R61] Speech to Text Dictation AI 1/5 · US Does not pick up words correctly.: I’ve only used it once and it did not correctly pick up on many words. I’ll go back to my free Notes on my Mac for now.
13. [R21] Transcribe 3/5 · US Expensive: Too Expensive
14. [R53] Transcribe 1/5 · US Pay by the hour: Free for 15 minutes then makes you pay a heavy price by the hour
15. [R112] Speech to Text Dictation AI 1/5 · US This is not free!: Not free, only a 7 day trial
16. [R115] Speech to Text Dictation AI 1/5 · US Misleading. NOT FREE.: The description of this app indicates that there is no fee or charge. However, when you download it and go through the first four steps, only then does it becomes clear that you have to pay for this app. Extremely annoying. Deleted it.
17. [R29] Transcribe 5/5 · US Excellent app! Excellent customer service!: I absolutely love the Transcribe app! Its accuracy exceeded my expectations, and when I ran into a glitch I couldn’t figure out, Mikhail came to the rescue right away and helped me resolve it. What impressed me most was how incredibly responsive he was, no matter when I emailed, he got back to me quickly with clear, step-by-step instructions. I actually s
18. [R82] Speech to Text Dictation AI 1/5 · US It is not clear how to cancel subscription and no way to contact support: The app doe not let you contact support and there is no button or way to cancel a subscription. Can someone from the developer please contact me or cancel my subscription before the 7 day period ends?
19. [R118] Speech to Text Dictation AI 1/5 · US BUYER BEWARE: Save your money and do not buy this app! There are flaws. It continues to fail and is not user-friendly. Apple will not honor a genuine request to refund money and in fact takes the money knowing this app is a failure. Do not buy this app.
