English only or broken
Unclear how to use the app due to poor user interface design. Seems to only support English. Words in other languages return no ipa transcription potentially due to limited dictionary. Unclear why the app doesn’t work because the interface is not well designed for human users. Promotions to buy the pro version are frequent despite the app demonstrating its poor unfriendly non-intuitive design.
United StatesSubscription only
Really wish there was an option to buy the app outright. Not a fan of the subscription model.
United StatesWatch out how Apple charges for this
I don’t think this is entirely IPA Scribe’s fault, but their subscription model (where they offer a free trial, then default to an ongoing subscription charge) charges an authorization on your card, then a completion if you decide to keep the subscription. if you decide not to complete the transaction, it has still reserved the money until the authorization expires. This model removes their full subscription fee from your limit before you decide to subscribe. It’s a very small amount, but I find it annoying that they reserve the money before you’ve decided to subscribe to their product. I deleted the app immediately after seeing the authorization, but it was too late by then. Don’t know if the app is any good. Never got that far.
United StatesDoesn’t work
Speech to transcription doesn’t even work.
United StatesDoes not work as expected
This only works for the english language and does not actually transcribe the vowel/consonant sounds you are making. It uses your phone’s built in audio recognition to transcribe english and then just translates that to IPA regardless of how you actually pronounced it.
United StatesDeceptive marketing.
Extremely limited functionality while it instantly tries to charge you just to continue using the app. Very deceptive. When the audio function doesn't register, it still counts toward your usage, forcing you to pay to keep trying.
United StatesGood, not great.
Will not transcribe all given phonemes to IPA; will not transcribe my two syllable, European last name, for example. OK for broad transcription.
