How It Works:
• The app is NOT for use with incoming phone calls, but for face-to-face, live conversations.
• The app does not store or save captured text unless you intentionally share that text with another app.
• To begin, just open the app and it will start listening. Tap the blue button to stop. The red button to start.
• Go to settings to increase or decrease the size of text, and change from white text on black background, to black text on a white background.
• Live Caption works with connected Bluetooth devices like headsets and standalone microphones for greater distance from the device.
• To respond with typed text, tap "Clear All" and all previous messages on the screen will disappear. Type with keyboard and the typed text will appear at the same size.
• You may edit any text as you would in any other text editing software. Tap anywhere on the screen and the keyboard will appear to edit your text.
• Tap and hold to select text to copy, paste.
Tips:
• Pair with Bluetooth devices to caption at greater distances. Good for use in a classroom, in church or at the office where the user controls the app. Especially new Live Caption Unlimited!
• Stream the app to a Television by connecting an Apple TV for a larger display
• Captioning may not be as accurate with strong accents or children's voices.
• Live Caption does not record or store voice or text results. Once the "Clear All" button is tapped results cannot be retrieved. Share text with another app to save the captured text.
• Live Caption will return results in any language the phone is set to. For example, if the phone is set to Spanish, the app will caption Spanish results.
How to enable Speak Selection on iPhone and iPad:
• Launch the Settings app from the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad.
• Now tap on General.
• Scroll down and towards the bottom, tap on Accessibility.
• Tap on the Speak Selection option and turn it to On.

Ratings and Reviews
The function of the app was fine
It’s $2.99 a month. It gave the message to subscribe, after 60 seconds of use. The app works, I’ll give it that. The text is big and clear. But I didn’t use it long enough to see that it was better than the regular Speech to Text. The mic icon on the onscreen keyboard for any standard text input field.
Request to have a Clear Button and start a new line after a sentence.
I have bad hearing loss . I just got this app and subscribed today.
This app seems to capture words more accurately and faster than other apps that I have used.
My request to improve this app:
1. Please have a CLEAR TEXT button on the top row so that it’s easy to clear the text from the screen.
2. Please add a period or a slash after a person finishes his sentence.
If adding a period or slash is hard to program, please have new sentence start on a new line. Or have color changed for each sentence after a sentence paused.
(We don’t normally Stare at the screen and follow the text caption all the times. This way when we take a quick glance at the transcript, we can easily understand that a person has stopped and started a new sentence).
Hope it can be fixed soon. Please reply and let me know when this can be fixed.
This will help me with my hearing loss tremendously.
Best regards,
Didn't work as well as hoped
I had trouble using this. I purchased it for use at dr appointments but it is very inaccurate even when spoken directly to the microphone. I was happy that it converted the text in real time. I wish there was a subscription service to get access to an actual person to type out conversation.
