Accessibility Comments

The record button is unlabeled, but everything else is. The transcriptions are quick and highly accurate for short recordings and OK for long recordings. When recording on the Apple Watch, you have to use explore by touch to make sure that the recording has started, but it’s easy to start and stop them.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads all page elements.

Button Labeling

Most buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

There are some minor accessibility issues with this app, but they are easy to deal with.

Other Comments

It’s the best option I’ve found for quick notes on the Apple Watch so far. The developer gives an email and phone number for feedback in the app, though I’m not sure how responsive they are since I haven’t tried yet. The email is: dean@stardateapp.com
