Notes/FAQ:
- Report an issue:
Please report any issues with the app at http://support.promptu.com/
- Handset support:
Due to vast array of Android handsets and the differences between each handset, we can only support so many devices. ShoutOUT will check your handset at runtime to determine if it is a supported handset or not. If your handset is unsupported you may still use ShoutOUT, but could encounter problems. If you would like to have your handset supported or have an issue to report, please let us know at http://support.promptu.com/ .
- Problem with double notifications:
Disable notifications within the native messaging app. This should prevent the double notification issue.
It does not pick up the words if you say them too fast.you almost have to speak slow
Utter garbage. Wont work with GS3 (only the most common phone on the planet). Not worth the free price.
!!!The owners keep ur texts!!! Jus don't say nothin u don't want everyone to know.
This app is no good to me when it does a force close every time I use it. unistall!
Works fine on mytouch 3g magic. It understand my wobbly English.
Doesn't do punctuation anymore. Puts the WORD period un when I want a dot.
I was told this was a great app but after using it i can see its awful. I did the voice training and it worked then just fine but when i tried to use it to text it kept saying it couldn't understand me. No matter how close i held the phone to my face or how clear i spoke. This app is a waste of space.
Smart word needs to work on groups of words, since speech mistakes can span words. Editing needs to be completely hands free anyways! Ie. App needs to understand "delete last word, move back 10 words", etc
Works but not in a noisy area or where there is background talking. It will mess up the message.
Like it alot but wish it.wasn't a machine talking voice.
Works really well considering I'm on an unsupported handset (nexus s). However I hate that it reads it back when I send a text handsfree.
Stupid app! It couldn't understand me when I spoke loudly, clearly and at a reasonable pace. I'm uninstalling! Sprint LG
love it but still don't know how to disable phone sms. tried it but it keeps popping up making me have duplicate sms. uninstalling.
Very accurate virtual assistant that learns your voice and confirm before sending or making the call. With a no hands or look needed feature. :)
Voice recognition is awful. Even when I tried talking slow and trying to pronounce words properly. I did like the 2 color display
The voice dictation built into ICS Keyboard works better which wrote this review for me with 100% accuracy.
Not compatible with my RAZR. Had to uninstall because it's useless without the speech to text function.
I download it only for it to tell me that my my touch 4g won't work with it. UnInstalled
All I got was a black screen then it forced closed. It's your basic fail boat. Also, I just pooted.
Cool idea but it does not understand anything you say
Didn't work with my phone - mytouch 4g
Doesn't work on galaxy 3.
I would give it a 5 star rating if you can create a new contact from this app. Call me picky but its an idea great app
With new update notification icon will not go away even after I opened the app and have checked my messages.
Speech to text does not, work well. I have to repeat my text many times. So that really isn't making my driving any safer. Which was my point.
This app is a sanity-saver to me. Even though after install, it said my device wasn't supported, it's working great.
I downloaded this app. But my t moblie may not work for this app. Okay thank alot
It was great in the beginning, but it keeps force closing.
it is extremely slow loading. I'd rather use the built in message from htc.
Frequent forces closes. Needs much more work.
Does not work on galaxy nexus.
WOW! I never comment on anything. But this one is a must have. It's awesome! Work great with my Samsung 4G galaxy. It reads back your text and writes
Did not say what devices were supported so wasted my time downloading to be told it will not work with my device
No matter what you say it only gets it correct 5% of the time
Excellent app they came a long way with their updates frm the original version! Absolute MUST DL!!
I use the speech recognition on my phone daily to search the net,..it works great and is always accurate, but nothing I speak into this app comes out right...nothing!
I love this app. Makes life so easier especially for driving. Since it is illegal to text & drive in some states, this also makes it so much safer.
pop up buttons stopped working and notification malfunctioning since update plus new voice command feature doesn't work - too bad ... was 5 star before update
This works great on my HTC Hero from Santa! My family is always on the go and texting is the best way to get in touch without being an inconvenience but please, that tiny little keyboard drives me crazy. Now I can text with the best of them! The HandsFree feature is really nice also. I ran the Voice Enrollment prior to using and find this to be VERY accurate. Once in a while I have to touch up a missed word with the tiny little keyboard and that only seems to happen when I rush my speech. I love this app! It does only allow a very brief time to speak your message, but the other speech-to-text apps I've tried work the same way. The nice thing about this is you can continue to add to the message (30 seconds at a time) and send a long text if necessary.
