This is mentioned in the EULA, but it may not be clear to all users.
Luckily, Dragon Dictation has a text editing feature that lets you go back over your transcripts and correct them manually, but if it makes as many mistakes with you as it did with me you'll probably give up after a while.Īnother issue that many people have noted is the way Dragon Dictation takes users' phone contacts and uploads them to their server. I tried to talk very slowly and even attempted an American accent but to no avail. Perhaps this could be because of my regional British accent, because many reviewers on the App Store are praising the accuracy of Dragon Dictation. In reality, I have to question the accuracy of Dragon Dictation because it never recognized any of the phrases I said during my extensive tests (evidence of which you'll see in the garbled nonsense written in a couple of the screenshots).
And of course, functionality in Dragon NaturallySpeaking is not limited to dictation: you can also control the computer with your voice - open and close apps, browse the web, view files, and more.ĭragon NaturallySpeaking is, in other words, like one of those amazing voice-controlled computers you see in movies, only that this time it’s on your own PC!ĭragon NaturallySpeaking is an amazing voice recognition tool that lets you control the computer with your voice and dictate texts in any application.At least, that's the theory. Just talk naturally, and it’ll pick it up.ĭragon NaturallySpeaking is seamlessly embedded in Windows, which means that as long as you have it running, you can start dictating in any application, from Notepad to Firefox. The best thing about Dragon NaturallySpeaking is that you don’t need to speak to the computer as if you were a robot. The interface is reduced to a small bar from which you can access all the main tools and functions: dictation, reading text aloud, improving accuracy, managing commands and vocabulary. Also, the program isn't 100% accurate – something we expected anyway – but its percentage of right words in dictation still remains impressive.Īfter training Dragon NaturallySpeaking, the program is intuitive and easy to use. The main drawback to Dragon NaturallySpeaking, like with any other voice recognition program, is that it requires some long, boring training – based mainly on reading texts to the computer.
