******** REAL USER REVIEWS (on our FB page) ********
Easy to use, voice recognition is very reasonable. Having this phone app allows me to let people to speak into the phone rather than write everything down on a notepad. It works best one-on-one, but there can be a little noise. I'd like to see future release be able to come up with answered phone calls... Kudos to the developer!
***************************************************************
I know the app isn’t perfect, but I’m deaf and this fills a very wanted need for me. I knew in the beginning it was going to cost $15 and it’s worth it for me. It’s helped me a lot at work - a coworker can let me know what he needs without finding paper and pen... I’m sure it’s using Siri/iOS under the hood, and would like to see it released for Windows, which seems to have a better speech-to-text engine (my opinion). Simple program that’s easy to use - thanks for seeing the need!

Please keep developing this! I can't tell you how excited I was to find it. It will change our lives!!
