I really like this microphone better than all my dictation options, when it works. I’d like the developers to consider having a Lock Screen override. When my phone automatically locks, it stops recording. And reconnecting is a real problem. I spend so much time reconnecting, multiple times per day, which is super frustrating when this is supposed to save me time. I end up typing my notes often bcs it won’t stay connected. If I delete the app & reinstall in helps but this is all too time consuming.

I have been using, or attempting to use this app for several months. If the stars are aligned just right it may work. It shows it is connected and the green “vu meter” bar on the computer screen (and in the app) light up when I speak. Unfortunately, nothing transcribes most of the time. About every third or fourth use it will work but only if I’m in a speech box as they call it. If I happen to click out of that box to look up something like a patient’s age or weight in my EMR and try to go back to the speech box and continue dictating I’m out of luck. It simply won’t do it. At that point I get an alert box saying “M*Modal Fluency Direct was unable to recognize your dictation. Please make sure correct microphone is selected and calibrated. “ Needless to say nothing works at that point. Even if I close everything (losing all my dictation) and restart it usually won’t recognize the phone mic. Does support answer my numerous feedbacks? No! Do they care? Apparently not. This app is like some amateurish free app you see out there except medical documentation is serious business. Too bad the mmodal jokers don’t understand that.

I love this app. It has programmable buttons that make it efficient for me to use with my EMR while dictating. I can use it in different modes depending on the environment that I’m in. The Voice Isolation option is the best for most areas I work. I love that no matter what computer I sign into it automatically connects and I’m off and running. It saves our facility on money and maintenance for plug and play microphones. I have had some technical issues in the past but my support and adoption team always help me get it working again quickly.
