WhisperBoard: Voice to Text 4+

I never leave reviews. This app is fantastic though. I've been searching for a voice transcription app that was accurate enough for me to use for writing, for work, for all sorts of different purposes. And even the paid apps and subscriptions that I was looking at just did not deliver. I was nervous about downloading this app because it's been created for the last four years but only has 54 ratings and that didn't seem super reliable to me and it was free. But this is genuinely a great app. I'm pasting this review. I'm not editing the words here at all. That's how accurate the transcription is. I have spoken this entire review.

I use this application to dictate police reports and it does a phenomenal job, identifying names and spelling them correctly. Historically this has been a significant problem for Siri. In addition, the application allows you to pause and resume the audio dictation recording, which is great for maintaining a running dictation of what is happening. I have only used the tiny data set and can’t believe the accuracy. I can’t wait to see what the large or medium data set improves.

Best app ever! Completely off-line for privacy. No apparent limit on the length of the recording to be transcribed. The abilities are select the level of transcription you want for the accuracy that you need. Amazingly accurate. One suggestion: when exporting the audio file, name it the same as the exported text file based off the date and time, not a GUID.
