Pros and cons of Ava: Transcribe Voice to Text app for iPhone and iPad

Ava: Transcribe Voice to Text app good for

Ava has been very helpful for my 4th grader who uses it to help her clarify information. She relies on her hearing first, then checks Ava to make sure she heard correctly. Great tool. I would like to see you come out with special pricing for schools for the unlimited plan. Maybe a yearly flat rate. Students could then export the transcriptions to Google Docs or another app and refer back to those notes to study from. Very helpful app overall!

I am deaf and I use that and it work great with hearing people much faster communicate well if u can speak but cant read lips even if u are full deaf or whatever it still work great but if cant speak or read lips it work fine cuz u can still type the keyboard all they do is speak near ur phone and u read it that is very simple.

Love the mission behind the makers of the app. Intelligence of the speech recognition can be improved, but that will come in time, I guess. Thumbs up Anyways!

This app required exist working cellphone carrier service. I dont have one but wifi and text free app using wifi. I am stuck! Need to give wifi option. Also not only iPhone. They need to make it for iPad too. Really nice app, I cant wait to use it when I am able to someday.

I use it mainly to help me understand on the spot some people I cannot lipread well at all, and the ability to handle more than one person in conversations is astounding! Thank you!

Some bad moments

This app has great potential but still lacks accuracy with speaking into the phone and the app crashes often. I hope this does improve because this app could be terrific for those who are deaf and hate feeling left out in conversations.

I was excited to try this app but on the first screen it asks me for my first name, I enter it and nothing happens. The help button doesnt work. I tried typing, talking, and hitting enter on my keyboard but nothing seems to get me past that first form field of the first account creation screen. Please troubleshoot this! Id like to use this app. Im on an iPhone 7 Plus running iOS 10.3.2

Have to ask someone for the number and they have to download the lame app to connect mine. Not cool. Deleted and wasted to paid for it.

This has to potential to be a very great and helpful app. It really does, but whatever is being said is not whats appearing on screen. For instance I would say interesting a couple times and what would appear is "pictures" Or how about when I say, how and it translates to why. Voice recognition is pretty bad for an app thats crucial to the Dead and H-O-H like me

I just got the app.. but, isnt working, what its being said doesnt show at the screen. It looks to me that will be a helpful app for me. Pls fix it. Ty

I cant do anything. When I typed in my phone number and it says enter my code, I never got the code. I have clicked re send several times still nothing.
