Given Nuance powers Siri, NaturallySpeaking also understands a great deal of natural language meaning there are a few instances where exacting formal language must be used to carry out a specific task. Problems and niggles Unfortunately no voice recognition system is ever perfect. Despite all the improvements in Patience is also required in the first few days, when NaturallySpeaking is still learning your voice and detecting the moments when you say certain common words in slightly different ways or tones, but persistence is well-rewarded.
We also found that while the ease and practicality of using the iPhone app makes us use NaturallySpeaking far more, for the best results you do need to keep the microphone within 30 cm of your mouth and talk towards it albeit not in a forced or unnatural tone. This means using it like a handheld microphone rather than something you can put down and walk around. Another issue is the app pairs to your Wi-Fi network not specifically to your computer. This means should you travel you will have to pair the app with each new Wi-Fi network you use.
This is understandable given the original recordings often contain background noise and multiple or different voices not trained to be used by Nuance.
It is a good way to cut down time spent on unimportant work, but we found it too unreliable for interviews. NaturallySpeaking always works best in a quiet environment, and accuracy dropped to around per cent when used with the iRobot Roomba robot vacuum operating in the same room.

We wrote this review using it. Nuance NaturallySpeaking I was curious to see how well the iPhone would work as a remote microphone. The verdict: The iPhone handled its role just fine.
But setting things up, in my case, proved to be a rocky road. After installing the free Dragon Remote Microphone app available via the Apple App Store , I needed to pull up my existing Dragon user profile on my PC, indicate that I wanted to add a new dictation source, and make sure that my smartphone and computer were connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
At that point, the iPhone should have connected to my PC. But it did not. Frustrated, I switched gears and turned to the Windows 7 system; after a little tinkering, the Windows 7 test system and the iPhone finally joined forces.
After that, I dictated a bunch of email messages, and the accuracy results were similar to what I got when using a headset, as described above. Nuance -approved noise-canceling headset microphone.
