I work with students who have difficult taking notes for various reasons. I typically recommend LiveScribe but that is too expensive for most. I was happy to find this app so affordably priced!However, primarily what I heard on the recording was the very loud clicking of the keys as I took notes. I've looked at the setting for my Mac and cannot find a way to turn that clicking off (I know that's an option for some keyboards, just apparently not mine). The other issue is those classrooms where technology is not welcome. Here a LiveScribe pen and notebook works well. A laptop or phone you are taking notes with does not.So for students who can use technology in the classroom and don't mind hearing themselves type on playback, this is a fantastic resource. For others, maybe not so much.

For being note taking application, the outlining function is AWFUL! I hope you get more than just more than 5 minutes of recording time on the full, paid version of this app. I've been using Word for Mac's Notebook function to fill this note taking role for a couple of semesters now. I've had an awful time with it the past semester with saving multiple lectures in the same document under a different tab--not the case before a more recent update. That has worked pretty well, but my biggest complaint is you don't have the full power of Word and it's pretty darn difficult with math related notes. Still haven't found software that offers a full suite of note taking functions for a wide variety of situations.AudioNote LITE is VERY basic and offers a lot of nice drawing functions, but it doesn't seem to offer me more than what I have with Word for Mac's Notebook. If you don't have Office for Mac or don't want to drop the Money, it's better than nothing, but currently it's pretty lackluster. I may get it for iPad, which may make it more functional for me.

Really good! I like using it to write my songs and it’s very nice and easy to use with some extra tools to help me as well! Although, I do not recommend it if you are going to write heavy notes or “real notes."

Used this for about two years to transcribe notes from music classes. The files were a little large, about 3 hrs of MP3 audio. Often times the app would randomly stop logging timestamps correctly and get stuck. A few other odd text editor glitches too. I migrated to Obsidian and Media Extended
