Dictation App

I really like the simplicity and the interface of this app. But it has a serious flaw. Once you speak and it converts what you said to text... the only thing you can do is to export that text. You CANNOT edit what it thinks it heard you say. This is super frustrating. Because you cannot correct mistakes. So either you have to keep exporting every other sentence to correct it. Or you have to wait and correct it all later. They should allow you to edit once you stop dictating. So that you could continue dictation.

This app will not allow manual corrections. If it "hears" you wrong, you cannot just fix the word or words that are incorrect because the app will delete them and reinstate the incorrect words originally captured. Very aggravating and essentially useless!

I remember when voice recognition just came out. You had to spend hours teaching it. This one right out of the shoot and it works. Consider how much you are paying for this app. Worth every penny and more.

this app doesn't seem to integrate into other applications like Word or email apps. So you can only dictate into its own text box then cut and paste it somewhere else. It doesn't automatically save so as soon as you press the button to stop dictating all your work is gone. you must remember to "cut" and paste it somewhere else before pressing the stop button. It's so inconvenient it's unusable.

Fast to install and begin

This app does not work unless you allow Microsoft to send and store your voice and typing patterns in the cloud. I'm sure my attitude reflects my age, but I am not comfortable with any part of my private dictation being stored in the "cloud" which, in reality, is someone else's computer.
