Whisper Notes - Speech To Text 4+

Very accurate

While the accuracy of this app is impressive, it does not address my immediate needs. I use VoiceOver and voice control simultaneously and need live transcription to allow for immediate edits before copying the text to be used in other apps. The accuracy when using voice control is pretty pathetic often requiring words to be spelled out letter by letter to avoid capitalization errors and vulgarity from being inserted when it wasn't spoken even though I am in a very quiet place. I will let several of my friends know about this app. It is pretty rare these days to find an app without subscriptions which is greatly appreciated for those of us on a very limited disability income.

This app is a gem. It provides an easy and minimal to use UI.

The accuracy is quite good, enough for casual note taking. Especially it also supports the audio recordings.

I only have one wish of batch export and delete those exported. My intention is to export the notes to my journal system.

Thanks for creating and sharing such wonderful tool!

Thank you for the feedback1 I've taken note of it, and will consider adding a batch export & delete feature in the next update.

disappointed

im so sad. I was so excited to find this app as a way of writing a book through voice memos and exploration. most other transcription apps punctuate poorly or record in note taking styles/bullet points.

I recorded close to thirty minutes of audio yesterday and when I completed it, it began transceibing. The app warns that it starts slowly and learns to get faster, so after a couple of monutes and it only having transcribed 2% of my recording, I switched to another app to focus on in the meantime. I then went to bed forgetting to check it back on my recording. Today I opened whisper to see no record of the recording, as if it never happened; not even a blank audio or failure message. This literally made me cry, as I can never repeat or fully remember the narration of the ideas I recorded. I am so disappointed, this app has lost my trust.

Hey, your recording hasn't been lost! Tap the "gear" icon in the top right corner, toggle on "Show History" and you'll be able to see the transcription history. Even if your app remained in the background too long and the transcription failed, you'll at least be able to see and export the recording.

This might be a poor design: Whisper Notes defaults to not showing historical transcription results, which is intended to help you focus on the current recording.
