Android's Live Transcribe gets sound alerts and transcript saving
Google is making Live Transcribe, its Android app for easy voice transcription, a lot more useful. Now, in addition to jotting down spoken words, it'll also make you aware of things like a dog barking or audience clapping. It'll give deaf and hard of hearing users even more context around their environment. Additionally, you'll also be able to copy and save transcripts locally for up to three days. That'll be useful when you're juggling several conversations, or if you're using the app to transcribe a class or meeting. And of course, it'll give you a bit of time to move that text to a more permanent location for safe-keeping.
