OLYMPUS Dictation for iPhone

Shame it does not allow you to play or import .ds2 or .dss files to listen via the player.

The concept of this is great - dictate on the go and send to your transcriptions. I even spent $110 for an annual subscription to use the app. Unfortunately, the app crashes every time I try to open it. Can someone please fix this?

Ever since I updated my iPhone to 15.6.1 it will not open or load. Fix it!

I was looking into this for my boss because he needs a new Dictaphone I thought this might be a better way as he already has an iPhone. However after seeing the reviews I guess will go a different route. Olympus you really need to think about changing your policy on this.

I’d rather pay for this app then the data migration system they implemented. This use to be the best recorder app now it’s trash because they make you migrate your recording to there server and charge several hundred dollars to maintain account. DO NOT USE they ruined a good app for no reason other than to line their pocket books.

As you can tell by reviews - the app is not problematic, but Olympus apparently still thinks it is a good business idea to charge people $300-$500 for a dictation system and then ask users to pay more money to enjoy the convenience of sending a dictation file from this app to their own assistant. For anyone purchasing an Olympus dictation recorder / system - this app should be free to use. Hopefully, someone at Olympus will realize that a 2 star rating means that most people agree that Olympus dropped the ball on this and said “screw you” to its customers. I’ll stick to the physical recorder for now that doesn’t cost me a anything to send a recording to my own assistant. Philips’ app is doing far better than Olympus In ratings because Philips realizes that customer feedback is important. Olympus sits back and does nothing while it continues to rip off its consumers with this app where you, the user, are actually charged by Olympus to send a recording to your own assistant. Wake up, Olympus.

Great app for someone who dictates on the go.

Why pay a monthly fee to route dictation through your server? Email worked just fine. Charge a one time fair price for the app and I’m good. Olympos now charging significant recurring fees for a minimal product.

Encryption feature in this app provides highly secured dictations

Before it was the microphone. Now I can’t get the dictated files to deliver to my secretary through the “server” when it previously worked like a snap through email. We HAVE and already pay for the Olympus dictation suite at my job, but I can’t even get the dictation there. It worked perfectly with email. I am seriously angry because I don’t want to lose the hour’s worth of work.
