“Speechify is absolutely brilliant. Growing up with dyslexia this would have made a big difference. I’m so glad to have it today.“
Sir Richard Branson
This app alone makes the iPad worth every penny For journalists/lawyers and pretty much anyone who has to attend meetings, listen to speakers and take notes, you could probably charge the cost of an entry level iPad for a device which did nothing more than this application. It is, of course, stunningly simple - yet performs a task that is so useful once you have used it in anger, you'll never want to go back to pure recording or note taking again. Thanks to the iPad's inbuilt microphone quality and long battery life, it's genuinely useful. Everyone using an iPad for work should have this application. Every iPad review I have written has this high on the recommended "first apps". It's £2.99. Cheaper than a decent pen and a pad of paper, let alone a dictaphone. Why are you even reading the reviews?
TastyOtherIn meetings, lectures, and interviews, SoundNote is the finest tool for taking notes. You won't ever have to worry about missing a vital detail because it records audio and tracks what you type and draw. To skip to the appropriate time in the audio during playback, simply tap a word. SoundNote will do this for you. • Create rapid sketches with SoundNote's capable sketching tool. Editing them is also simple. You can pick a drawing by tapping it once, or you can select a single stroke by tapping twice. It can then be moved by dragging it to the desired location or by selecting "Delete" to delete it. Click and scroll with two fingers. Student use of SoundNote is ideal. Rest assured that SoundNote has your back if you ever doze off in class. In order to help you fill in the blanks, SoundNote will play the audio you recorded while you were awake when you tap the text you wrote there. A useful tool for journalists is SoundNote. Ever needed to quickly scroll over the entire recording of an interview to figure out what you missed during a key detail? To hear what you missed during that section of the interview, simply tap a word in SoundNote. • Share your text, drawings, and audio notes once you're done by emailing them to someone else or saving them directly to your Mac or PC. An hour of high-quality audio is only 25MB in size when it is recorded in the common M4A format for audio notes.
I really love this app. The functionality is probably the best I’ve used. The word prediction is great and it’s very helpful to have both spelling and grammar correction. Functionality requests: Working in portrait mode only is a nuisance for users (like my 8 yr old dyslexic student) who use a wireless keyboard case to make the iPad function like a laptop. Also, there are several instances when limiting the word prediction options to 8 words is simply not enough.
Mom to dyslexic, Appstore ReviewGhotit Real Writer is a text editor for people with dyslexia and dysgraphia that is more geared toward senior users than other apps on our list. I don't suggest it for new authors due to its difficulty. Nevertheless, it has a lot of helpful functions that are crammed into a user-friendly design, such text correction and word prediction. These features, notably the word prediction tool, are quite useful for older kids and adults. The software also has dictionaries for the English spoken in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. Unfortunately, without an Internet connection, the program loses a lot of its functionality. Download Ghotit Real Writer from its website or the Apple App Store for iPads if you wish to give it a try. For the purpose of assisting dyslexics and/or dysgraphics in becoming independent in their writing and reading, Ghotit Software and Apps were created. We put people with dyslexia and dysgraphia at the center and assist them in overcoming their difficulties with reading and writing.
Multitasking, me? Nah! The one thing I can't do in meetings is take minutes and participate in any meaningful way. With soundnote, I can record the meeting and finger or stylus write bookmark style notes. Then when you play it back and tap the bookmark, bang, there you are, right where you were when you wrote it. This app has changed my working life and made post meeting report making waaaay more accurate and quick. 10 stars for this! iTunes export (that exports in soundnote format for moving between ipads and backup etc) and the ability to use a linked iPhone as a remote mic.. Well, that would get you 20 stars;)

It works I downloaded this app and tested it on a tv programme about the history of opera, as if I were taking notes in a lecture hall. It worked perfectly, and playing back particular parts of the programme was easy. The only difficulty was my lack of speed typing skills on the iPad. Wish I had downloaded the app a few days earlier and used it to record talks given at a work training course.

Works well and is reliable Having tried (and failed) to take text notes along side audio in Evernote (it crashes and can only store 20m sections) I turned to Soundnote. It just works - really well and integrates with drop box. Really, really impressed. If I was being greedy I'd ask for a VU meter and some basic formatting tools. If I was being really greedy I'd ask for outlining tools and an export to Word's notebook format. Great work!

I never imagined that any person or machine could understand MY spelling. I finally feel understood. I can write and communicate.

Ghotit is the best thing anybody did for us people who have Dyslexia. It gives me hope to write and be confident that the person who reads does understand what I wrote about… Being an advocate for equal rights and access to education for Dyslexic people, I very strongly recommend Ghotit. Well done guys! You Ghotit!
- Kai Fromme Dyslexic, New Zealand
I have always struggled with English spelling and English grammar. Now comes Ghotit to the rescue.. I deeply appreciate your help.
