Good intentions, undercooked execution. The bake is missing.

Key quotes
· 5 pulledTo me, it is one of the best, if not the best, offline transcription apps for the Windows operating system.
First of all, it is free of cost and works offline perfectly.
The accuracy level for English is more than decent—not perfect, but good enough.
I am a non-native speaker of English, so it makes mistakes from time to time. If I were a native speaker, I don't think it would make mistakes.
I'm a fan of it and regularly use it.
Handy is a cross platform, open-source, speech-to-text application for your computer.
