Dictaphone - Audio Recorder Reviews

by ShaneM.D.

Why do I need to upgrade in order to send the file??? Why do I need to upgrade AGAIN to be able to grip the recording.
Really- just make it paid to begin with, or only offer the pro upgrade. If I knew every add on was a-la-Carte, I would have spent $5 just to avoid the hassle.

I was looking for a hands free recorder for my phone. You know, open with my Bluetooth, initiate recording using Bluetooth buttons, stop recording using Bluetooth buttons. While driving or walking or whatever. Dictaphone advertises itself as hands free.

There is nothing hands free about Dictaphone, other than it eliminates picking up a pencil and paper to record notes. LIKE EVERY OTHER VOICE RECORDER EVER MADE.

I bought this for recording notes as I inspect my apiary. I had hoped to use with my Bluetooth headset. Unfortunately enabling the headset causes feedback because it doesn’t seem to turn off the phones speaker. Also seems to have problems if it can’t detect either a cell connection or a Wi-Fi connection.

Love the quality of recording on this! So frustrated that there is no rewind or fast forward with Dictaphone! I use this for my college classes so I can listen to them again. There are times when I miss something and want to rewind, but I have to start at the beginning. Very frustrating!

This this app is ok in terms of sound quality but is really annoying in that I can’t just scroll back a few seconds while listening to a recording. They should at least have -15 seconds playback. I end up popping back minutes behind, it’s especially bad on the small iPhone that I use, and I have to rehear the annoying voice a professor I interviewed, over and over. Also, the this app app is continuously heckling me about giving it a rating, so I finally did

This is a simple interface and works fine for recording notes and playing back your recordings.

Several reviewers have mentioned The fact that Dictaphone has a pop-up that frequently asks the user to rate Dictaphone . I think that’s why the overall rating for Dictaphone is as low as it is. If I haven’t already found another app, I will purchase this one when this is fixed.

I have been using Dictaphone for a very long time. I have hundreds of notes over the years. It is very convenient.

This ap picks up my voice and plays back strong. I have also used it in meetings and it picked up presenters voices also as well.

Could use a more intuitive menu, but functions are there if you search.

I am very pleased with this app, I have been able to record talks, and I like being able to type in the title of the talk so I can go back to.

I record musical ideas with my phone and I had yet to find a recording app that plays each file one after the other, until I downloaded this one! Love it! I can listen to my musical ideas as one continuous stream, which is fantastic.

I have found this to be a very valuable resource. It allows me to record hours of lectures and in the comfort of my own home and at my own pace (very important ), play back all that was said. This enables me to capture all that I may have missed in the classroom or corporate meeting .

by Innovatorguy

I can record using the this app app and then transfer them to another program where I can edit them. Good sound and easy to use.

Thanks for a great app - I’m finally free from a PC-based system that sometimes brought me back to the office on weekends for dictating. Turns out, my transcriptionist says voice quality from the iPhone sound files is better than from my old this app!

As a secretary for non profit groups, I record meetings to make it easy to produce accurate minutes. Dictaphone does the job on my iPhone.

by Ninja Barbie

This works perfectly for what I needed and the files don't take up huge chunks of memory. I had to pay a few bucks to get what I wanted but I am happy with the result.

by MamaChile

I just started using Dictaphone and love it. I do mindful meditation while walking and like to use the this app to record profound thoughts, then listen and document them when I get home.

by No Pop Up Guy

Other than persistent pop ups asking for a review it serves my needs quite well. I hope now the pop ups will cease!

by Yuhboyjay

It’s a good app if you want to record lectures! You can record and be able to take a picture of the board WHILE IT STILL RECORDS. So it’s perfect for colleges students

Dictaphone is amazing. It’s easy to use and best of all it’s free. It has helped me with my studies. Developers keeps doing what your doing to make Dictaphone so good.
