Speech-to-text is not a new technology – it has been around for quite a long now. But over a few years, it has gone over tremendous changes. It is now more reliable and can actually help you in some scenarios. If you are in a meeting or any type of function that require you to note down everything the speaker is saying, it would be a mundane task to jot down every word. And even if you are good at it, there may be some situations where you do not understand what the speaker is saying and make a mistake when transcribing; after all, you’re only human. This is where Speech-to-text software comes in. These apps not only save you a great deal of time but also makes your task easier. Some of the speech-to-text apps are advanced enough to recognize spoken language and convert it to text. We have listed some of the best speech to text apps for Android and iOS we could find.
