It is very awesome to use this app, because it is able to capture almost words has spoken, 97% correctly if you are speaking clearly a little bit. Besides, I really love its function which is writing down suddenly words parallel with audio, or recording or speakers. Highly recommended. Use it and love it

This is a truly amazing app. It gives virtually instantaneous transcription with a high degree of accuracy across a variety of accents and male or female voices. It saves hours of transcription time. Would be fabulous if it was possible to add technical words prior to use to assist in recognition but great as it is. I particularly appreciated quite generous recording time on the free plan but I wouldn’t hesitate to sign up for more if I had the need. All in all a great app. Thanks.

I just got a notification on my phone to let me know that you will be increasing the price of your app from $14.99 to $31.99 per month with no explanation? That is pretty poor... I think I will be using an alternate service from now on.

Good app, however......

The premium version is too expensive and the free option is too limiting - as free should be.
Why can't there exist 3 or even 4 scaled options?
Definitely room for 1 or 2 options between free and premium - say $50 and $100 annual options.

This is one of the most useful apps I own. It is fantastic for keeping track of meeting minutes and also for reviewing and clarifying what was discussed in a conversation. Essential tool.
The longer I use this app the better it gets - and I learn what it is capable of.

Whoever developed this app has done terrific job. I tested this app to read captions from live radio and pretty much it captured everything regardless of whatever accent. The amazing part of this app is that it does capture the low level sound of the person talking a bit further distance. One of best AI built app and very convenient to use in either conference meetings, audio recording, and other forms of media.
Thank You for sharing this app and please keep rocking to take this app to next level!!!

I’ve always been impressed with the recording quality and accuracy of the dictation of Otter, especially by the recordings sent to me from other people. However whenever I’ve used it I’ve constantly had my recordings automatically stopped because of a phone call interrupting the process. It never continues recording and is extremely frustrating. So far I’m not comfortable paying for premium with this type of unreliability.

One of the best after trying many others

I have tried at least 6 similar apps from the free one to the most ‘sophisticated’ PC app. I must say that this app is the only one that meets my expectation.
The accuracy is almost 98%. It could have been 100% if the speaker is from English background which I am not.

Beyond doubt - the best voice to text transcription app available. Easy to run out of superlatives when there are so many great features & benefits.
Space saving - no mike, recorder, paper, tapes, data sticks.
Ease of use - one minute to learn and get started immediately.
Check and send text via telegram and copy onto desktop preference! job done.
I use as a record for every candid conversation, pitch, notion, idea and todo list on the fly

Version 2.0.21
I got one month free upgrade to Pro-version with so called "custom vocabulary". Thanks. But actually the feature needs to be improved. Even after entering the custom words, it still mis-spells them. Of course, it just tries to guess the correct spelling, and unsuccessful. We should be able to record the custom words in audio and teach the app the correct spelling, then it would work better. At the moment this feature has not much usefulness, it seems.

Accuracy rate about 30%

App is amazing, I’m so impressed that it doesn’t use other APIs which explains how it can transcribe so quickly and accurately. All the features are great and the free version is useful for casual use, and it’s not like the paid version is priced unfairly.
My suggestion (and what I was originally looking for) is to be able to record and transcribe phone calls.

I was frantically looking for a voice recorder to covert to mp4 on my way to an interview today. I chose this app at random and thought I’d see how I went. I couldn’t believe it when I started recording and watched it transcribe what we were saying! The app’s functionality is amazing and I’d recommend this for any journalist, minute taker or interviewer.

This app is amazing (and a lifesaver), in its current format, you really can't fault it.
This app has such great potential for the future that I'm looking forward to future updates.
One thing that I would suggest with this app would be the ability to bookmark certain sections within the conversation or within your notes so you can easily refer back to them.
Other than that, this app is fantastic and the developers have done a great job.
Keep up the great work, look forward to even better updates, which I'm sure will include fantastic features (and yes, dictated this review using the app) :)

Have been testing, or rather, using this app for some months with good results. Have been able to successfully record some lectures in auditoriums and transcribe them quite well. Sure, sometimes things are poorly transcribed (which can add some amusement) but pretty much all is correct or close enough to work out the error.
The synced audio to transcription is invaluable for making these corrections and make finding a specific phase quite easy.
Best app I have used so far and the free 600 minutes a month is reasonable I think.

I was looking for an app to help me save time and money transcribing the audio (interviews) for my PHD thesis. I tested close to 12 apps including Dragon Dictation. Otter was by far the fastest and most accurate automated app I found among my sample apps. It’s real-time, 85-90% accurate, automatically highlights keywords, creates word cloud etc. Unlike others, this did not have any limitation in the free version. Well done developers. Loved it!

Taken way too long to transcribe a 10 second recording.

Will try this app again in another 6 months, it’s taken over 10 seconds (still processing) to perform a transcription.
What’s worst is the 10 seconds are read directly from the initial setup sentence. You’d expect that to be quick as it’s part of the app’s setup.
Not real time at all, hopefully this gets better with time.

Helpful for meetings and lectures

Practical solution for transcribing meetings or lectures, but with the recorded backup, corrections can be made fast. With cooperation from speakers, you can record who spoke. I look forward to seeing this in other languages and embedded in other apps, eg apple notes. Please add Chinese, and ultimately, multi language transcription, by which I mean recording speed where multiple languages are used at the same time.

Wonderful app, already hugely useful in so many ways. Technology like this, that can be used quickly without interrupting the core process (i.e a conversation) is at the really really useful end of the technology scale. I just wNt more help in the app to do things like adding new identities, so that people are identified in conversations...
