Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Leave your dictaphone in your office. With Dictate + Connect on your Android phone, you'll always be with a recorder that can do more than most high-end dictaphones, and that's easier and more intuitive to use. Free yourself from tapes, computers and cables and send your dictations straight from your Android phone to your transcriptionist. Dictate + Connect offers excellent sound quality, impressively exact voice activation, secure encryption and many ways to transfer your dictations. This is “Dictate + Connect Free”, our free limited version of Dictate + Connect, that demonstrates the functionality and feel of the full version. Dictate + Connect Free offers everything that Dictate + Connect does, but limits each single dictation to a length of 30 seconds instead of 24 hours. It also manages no more than 5 dictations at the same time.
