    This app is the best I have seen so far. The siri-like voice interaction is great for taking the notes with just the button on the headset. As a side note, in Jelly Bean, google voice has control over a long press of the headset and that can't easily be changed. However, I have assigned a double click to Voicenote using "headsetbutton controller"

    Just one thing - why doesn't Voicenote have a feature to send both transcription and audio file at the same time? I would really like to see this feature.

    Also, I can't see a widget for this app which would be another improvement.

    Update:
    The confirmation time out is set to 5 seconds by default - the trouble is this is the time from when the recording is read back. If you have a long recording it gets cut off. A short recording has a delay after it. Only a minor thing, but it would be nice if the delay could be set from the end of the confirmation.

    There are a few errors in transcribing when talking into the phone, however, when using a headset it is much more accurate

    Update: Voicememo has developed a fault - it says email sent successfully, but no emails are sent. Have tried reboot but no luck yet. Now waiting for some tech support.
