Focus on Listening - On-demand transcription app for students.

Super Nice. When will it available on IOS?

Hi there, We have launched a transcription app for two types of students: those with difficulties following what the teacher is saying during lectures and those who have a harder time taking proper notes in the classroom. A good example of this could be a foreign student at an American university. If English is not ones native language, it could be difficult to catch 100% of what is being said during the lecture. By using our app these students can follow and focus their energy real-time on what is being said and thereby be more active in the classroom: this can be especially important for those classes that are partially graded by class participation. Besides, they will have more detailed notes when studying for the exams. Our app also includes features that enable you to import PowerPoint slides handed out by the teacher or pictures taken of the class board. You will be able to both edit and share these – and many more functions are to come in the future. Please go ahead and test it out. And let us know what you think!

We currently support the English language only, but we will move into other languages soon! What should be the next language we support?

Really neat idea! I'm sure it'd helped my studies if it were available back then. How are you finding it coping with other background noise in a crowded lecture room? Would you suggest for users to put their phone close to lecturer? Or can the app discard voices other than a "target" voice?
