Great Audio/Podcast transcription app!
12/04/2023

Valor
I was looking for an app that would transcribe a recording I had made into text -- this did it and so much more!The best bonus feature was the highlighting of the sentence/phrase alongside playing the audio -- I could determine what was not quite accurate within the transcription and follow along.Next best bonus feature: I'm a "podfaster" and like to play my podcasts at 2x (or more). This does taht, and helps me with retention by having the transcription highlight at the same time!

How can I give it anything else? It pretends to have the capability to transcribe podcasts even setting up the app as if it were legitimate. It even had me download this big a$& file as if that would do something. But guess what? Nope. Nothing. It’s all just a big scam diddlydam scam scammy scam.

Developer Response
If you have already downloaded the transcription model, then you should be able to transtribe the podcast normally. If you encounter any issues, feel free to send us more detailed feedback through the app.

This is a great little app! It’s simple to use and the transcriptions are marvelous. In the sea of crappy, gimmicky, ad-ridden junk, this is a gem. Simple to use, inexpensive transcription/service fee, and NO ADS!!

When using the “large” ai model, the app just crashes. When using the “small” ai model, it fails saying “folder does not exist”
