Another "does not work"!!

I thought this looked like an answer for my hearing impaired mother. I paid for it but when I touch the screen it immediately has a message that says I am "not authorized" and to contact my internet provider. I tried to send a report to the developer and it bounced back. I guess it is $20 down the drain. Buyer beware! I am so disappointed.

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!

I was lured into buying this app in hopes that it would help me understand what a hearing person was saying to me. I had no idea I would be forced to pay more money later to enable me to continue using the app. This is a ripoff.

I’m deaf and rely on programs like this. This program takes too long to load “ voice recognition “. Then if there is a pause in speech it turns off. I’m sorry I purchased this program.
