<div> The iOS dictation with Siri is incredibly powerful straight out of the box.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I use it extensively for blog posts and communication while on the go.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm also addicted to the app Rev, which is an audio transcription app at $1 per minute. Simply dictate into the app and a human writes it up at 100% accuracy. I wrote an entire book this way<br>
