MixBit: Subtitles for Videos
doubtful ratingAuto-captions that genuinely help some people and are easy to edit, with translation and a nice simple interface. But there's a lot of money pain: people get charged for a yearly subscription even after canceling the same day, and you can't save or send a video without paying. The core is shaky too: recognition often misses, skips long phrases, text is either late or jumps out early, and the watermark can't be removed for free.
textAvg 3.33 is noticeably below the store's 4.21, and there are odd fives carrying the text of an angry one-star review («Very inaccurate, terrible app» under a five). Plus the app itself begs for a review every twenty seconds, which pulls ratings up, even though the detailed reviews are mostly about charges and inaccuracy.
