******** REAL USER REVIEWS (on our FB page) ********
Easy to use, voice recognition is very reasonable. Having this phone app allows me to let people to speak into the phone rather than write everything down on a notepad. It works best one-on-one, but there can be a little noise. Id like to see future release be able to come up with answered phone calls... Kudos to the developer!

I know the app isn’t perfect, but I’m deaf and this fills a very wanted need for me. I knew in the beginning it was going to cost $15 and it’s worth it for me. It’s helped me a lot at work - a coworker can let me know what he needs without finding paper and pen... I’m sure it’s using Siri/iOS under the hood, and would like to see it released for Windows, which seems to have a better speech-to-text engine (my opinion). Simple program that’s easy to use - thanks for seeing the need!

Please keep developing this! I cant tell you how excited I was to find it. It will change our lives!!

Latest reviews of Visual Hear - audio translator app for iPhone and iPad

Doesnt work
I keep getting the same error: recognition failed Im not at all happy with this purchase.
worked 75% of time til I paid $19.99
Now it will not work since I paid for it. It keeps saying that it cannot understand and it can only pick up one little word or one wrong word out of a dozen words and it only records for like 10 seconds then it processes. It misses alot of the sound. This should be able to listen during time of processing so that words constantly scroll on the screen. I am going to keep trying. This is better than nothing but they really need to improve this to warrant the cost of it
Visual hear
I was lured into buying this app in hopes that it would help me understand what a hearing person was saying to me. I had no idea I would be forced to pay more money later to enable me to continue using the app. This is a ripoff.
Do not get this
I am Deaf and I wanted to see how mean words I did not understand when people was talking to me and every time someone talked to me it keep say crazy stuff. I want my money back
