Just an additional note: I am using to record lectures from professsionals leveled as phd in English language, very clear and, it comes out terrible and worse than if I record my own voice, and English is my third language. Thanks. Elvira.

I have the same problem. English is my first language and I speak clearly yet the transcript is total garbage. I bought this phone for business and that was one of the primary reasons but it's unusable. I suspect it's just samsungs speech to text in general is ***, most of their apps are and their support is almost non existent. Once you buy a phone they don't care. Even autocorrect is like something from 20 years ago. Maybe it works betterbin Korean or somethiny. Anyway back to voice ... the first thing to do is replace samsung keyboard with Googles one, and replace bixby with hello Google too because they both suffer with the same issue. But we're still stuck with voice recorder using their trashy speech recognition. If anyone can please give me an alternative to this I would be super grateful. Sidenote - Sincerely regret buying this overpriced phone, it's priced like an iPhone due to hardware but doesn't come close in software and UX.

Hi @fereld22, thanks for reaching out. Have you tried the following steps to Live Transcribe?

Link doesn't go anywhere that addresses the problem 🙄

I think the technology is as good as the input. The sensitivity of the microphone in the device might not be strong enough to pick up the lecturer. (Could be a faulty mic)
