REMOTE RECORDING DELETED
One of the most powerful features of Dragon 14 was the ability to record on my iPhone and later download the recording to my desktop Dragon program and have Dragon transcribe my recording. NO MORE with Dragon 15.
One of the most powerful concepts of Dragon 14 was the ability to be on a road trip or at the cabin or on a ski lift or in a dinner conversation and record those beautiful ideas for later transcription that started flowing like a river through my mind . NO MORE with Dragon 15.
NO MORE. I am now compelled to use Dragon chained to my PC (oh, yes, I have a Bluetooth headset that extends my chain a few feet). Chained to my PC.
What in the world was Nuance smoking when they decided to get rid of this feature? Unbelievable. They emasculated Dragon, they clipped its wings. They decimated the program's most powerful feature: ITS FREEDOM, ITS FLEXIBITY.
I am really angry. For anyone thinking of buying this program or updating, I would deeply reconsider.
UPDATE: First. Apparently, you can still do what I want, but not automatically. It has to be done manually. Looking forward to hours on the phone with tech support to figure this out. Second, you can subscribe to "Dragon Anywhere" for $150 a year ($15/month) and do what was offered for free before.
