That’s not always its fault some things sound indistinguishable, and no amount of context can help the software figure out what you mean. Unfortunately, if the program misunderstood you the first time, it’s likely to misunderstand you again, and again, and again. In Anywhere, the only way to correct a mis-transcription is to try re-speaking it. You just speak the number of the fix, and off you go. On a computer, you can say, “Correct ‘UI have taken fictitious names’” Dragon highlights that error text and offers a numbered menu of possible corrected versions. There’s even some synchronization of the mobile version with those desktop versions-for example, your custom voice macros get auto-synced between the two.īut there’s one really important feature of the desktop Dragons that’s nowhere in Anywhere: the correction window.

In general, Dragon Anywhere comes reasonably close to the speed, accuracy, and flexibility of Nuance’s desktop speech programs, like Dragon for Mac and Dragon Professional (for Windows). That’s an ideal setup for Dragon.) Dragon meets Dragon (Except if you’re using a tablet, like most Samsung tablets and recent iPads, that let you split the screen between two apps. For example, when you’re writing an email reply, you can no longer see the note you’re replying to. You have to dictate into the Dragon Anywhere app and then hit Copy (so that you can paste it into another app) or Share (to send it via email, message, or any of the other sharing methods your phone offers). In other words, you can’t use it to dictate directly into Mail, or Messages, or Notes. It’s not a feature of your phone or table, built-in to use whenever you like. The central problem with Dragon Anywhere, though, is that it’s an app.


Its accuracy and voice control blow away the built-in features of your phone or tablet. You can see why Nuance is super proud of this app.
