Comments on Speechnotes - Speech To Text for Android
★★★★★Ndifelani Mudau· Jun 1, 2026
Very good app for taking notes and it's accurate. It's a must get
★★★★★Cheri Phillippi· Feb 26, 2026
Makes writing so much easier! The process of reading and having speech notes convert into text helps me produce anything so much faster. I am so happy I found Speech notes. What a great tool! A real game changer!
★★★★★Justin Case· Apr 8, 2026
A thoroughly brilliant app! I especially love that you included Canadian English, which is British English, not American. Ironically, they took U out of Neighbor. **Google hasn't included Canadian English, which isn't right. The UI is very intuitive. It is a simple and straightforward app that does an amazing job at recording various venues and situations. 10 out of 10.
★★★★★John Hopkins· Jul 7, 2026
It is great to have a speech to text note taker that also allows you to type in edits at the same time.
★★★★★Krishak Duniya· Jun 19, 2026
Convertion of voice in hindi text form is very impressive. No errors. Very good.
★★☆☆☆A S (LiminaLady13)· Feb 14, 2026
The transcription is pretty accurate, but it doesn't keep recording in the background for very long, so I never know of my lecture or conversation or voice note is going to be incomplete 😕
★★☆☆☆Heinz Matuschek· Jun 4, 2026
This app may work for English (or other languages) but for German it is very poor. Whole phrases or half sentences are just missing. Of course, I had set the language to German and spoke extra clearly and slowly, but it is just very poor. Do not waste your time with this!
★☆☆☆☆John Doe· Jun 15, 2026
Used it for over a year on a different device for its offline capability. Bought premium, tried to install on a new device only to discover the languages I used are gone from the offline function? Very disappointed.
★☆☆☆☆Nicholas Phipps· Apr 14, 2026
No idea if it even works. Right out of the gate the "new note" button for a clean document doesn't work. Never even tested the dictation. It did pop up the payment prompt 4 times though. Pitty. I was hoping to test the punctuation feature.
