My short term memory has severely worsened. If I don't record or type something right away, it's gone. I had the idea to look for an app to convert my voice to text because I didn't just want recordings of my voice on my phone. I visually need to see the notes. I downloaded a few apps like this one, and uninstalled the rest. This app does everything I need it to and even allows me to customize the notes. I also like that I can organize my notes under specific lists. The widgets are so helpful!

Seems to only make bulleted lists. Every time you take a breath, it creates a brand new entry. Unusable for letters, paragraphs, dream journals or - perish the thought - short stories or novels. Undoubtedly useful for some, what I need is for Google to make its speech to text engine less of a cruel joke at the expense of writers, so I can use it across all the apps I use and am familiar with.

Man, this thing really works. But the Pro version is a MUST. I wanted a way to record diary entries as I drive, have it transcribed into text which I can then txt to my PC, transfer into Word processor/diary, and make small edits, punctuation, etc. Tremendous time saver, but you need continuous voice. Speech to text is very accurate. Alarm feature is great too. Widget is wonderful way to get started. Import/export - - all great ideas. I have not looked at other options, but so far this is best!
