Okay, this is super cool. When I started taking walks I found I was thinking through a lot of things but didn't have a way to remember all the things. So I started using the voice transcription notepad (so nice that people these days are less hostile to someone walking down the street mumbling about things :-)). In my case I was stuck taking the document and then re-editing/moving it over to Evernote manually which I didn't always want to do. This looks like it will replace my workflow with a single tool. That is super awesome.

One feature request would be 'activate by airpod tap' so I wouldn't even have to hold my phone, just tap my airpods to make a note.

Did the transcription work well? I always found myself taking more time editing the text later than the time I saved with dictation.
Generally 90+% accurate on the transcriptions. I recognize however that speaking English with a mid-range male voice with a northern California accent is kind of like cheating.
