Amical has been praised for its exceptional accuracy, fast transcription, and support for multiple languages. However, there are some minor issues with language detection and occasional speed concerns on mobile devices. Despite these small hiccups, Amical remains a solid choice for those in need of a reliable speech-to-text tool.

I don't understand the positive reviews

I was excited to use this because I tend to pause and ramble and have very long dictated segments that most programs will just cut off. Amical supposedly doesn't do that, yet it cuts me off way faster than Claude does (which is why I was most excited to use it -- to avoid that "oh no, I've been talking for 5 minutes and Claude stopped listening a while ago" problem). I put in a chat and a support email about this over two weeks ago and still have gotten zero response. So as is, this tool is completely unusable for me.

Then today, it started popping up over my working windows on its own. I'd close it, it'd reopen. And then again right after that. Then after a few more minutes, it would pop up again, taking focus away from whatever I was working on. I uninstalled it. Not worth the stress for me.

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. While we are obviously not happy with the rating, we still appreciate the feedback.

I tried to look into the issue you described and searched for any support tickets related to it, including tickets with an email containing “davincikittie”, but I was not able to find anything on our end. We apologize if we missed your support...

Very good, but...

I am using this application in this scenario. I have a MacBook, I have an iPhone, and I have an Android. I am bilingual with English and Arabic.

The application on the computer is very good, but sometimes once I'm talking in English, it translates my language dictation into Arabic, which I don't want. If I'm dictating in English, I want the dictation to be in English. If I'm dictating in Arabic, it should be in Arabic. I'm not asking the application to translate.

This is number one. Number two, on iPhone and Android, the application needs more improvement. Also, it's taking more time now, like slow ping between talking and transcribing.

لكنني سأقوم بإعطاء هذا المشروع حتى وإنما أنني أملك هذه الأشياء الصغيرة. والأمر المخيف هو أنه عندما كنت أتخصص هنا، فقد ترجمت بعض لغاتي الإنجليزية إلى العربية، والتي لم أطلبها.

مثلاً، التقاط الأعلى هو في العربية، كما كنت أدخل فيه باللغة الإنجليزية، لكنه يترجمه بشكل نفسه.

The above text was translated into Arabic without me telling that. !

Hi, Thanks for the 5 tacos and the feedback.

Regarding any noticed speed issues, please reach out to us. To our knowledge 90th percentile of our dictation calls are still completing comfortable within 1s. (This was the case earlier too) Would love to understand whats going wrong here. Please reach out over discord at https://amical.ai/community or if you can share a few more details around this...

Does Exactly What It Says It Does

I've been pleasantly surprised on how good and accurate this tool is. It is definitely a tool I would recommend. And it is a tool I use every day, all day.

Excellent

Amical is a very good product as it does not require the same app to be open to do the dictation. you can read on another app or Google page and then dictate, it still records as the icon is already open. It immediately gives the transcription with almost 95% accuracy. I have used other apps also and they were good however, you need to be on the same page to dictate and the moment you shift, the transcription used to stop which is an advantage with amical. It picks the medical or technical terms very well.

No more Carpal Tunnel - Thanks to Amical

I've only been using Amical a few days. It's very simple. I love that my wrist and my hands don't hurt at the end of the day after typing all day long. I have not used it yet for meeting notes. I'm looking forward to seeing all of its capabilities.

This is my first purchase from AppSumo. I wasn't successful downloading this on the first try. I contacted AppSumo and they responded quickly. I needed to upgrade my computer operating system and then everything worked fine. Thank you for the excellent customer support.
