NOTE: This app does not generates transcribed text. It just helps you (the user) help listen to an audio file which is hosted at some URL without leaving your browser tab. Perhaps that's why the author chose the name Transcription Helper. It's actually a remote audio file player. So, giving it the name transcription helper is somewhat misleading.

I like how basic this extension is. It's what I was looking for, but for some reason the "rewind 2 seconds" button doesn't work for me. The shortcut ctrl-alt-B does work, but the button doesn't. *shrug* I also wish there was a way for the control panel to remain on top of all other windows so that it was quicker to get to. Other than that, it's straight forward.

This app does EXACTLY what it says it will do. I loved it. I wish the developer could find a way to heve the app grab the audio link from the source page on it's own. But once you get the link to the audio right, it is wonderful in it's playback capabilities. BRAVO! I think you ding dongs writing bad reviews are narcissistic turds who only think about yourselves. These developers work hard to provide extensions, free of charge. who are you to condemn them because you don't understand how the extension works. It is not the developers fault that YOU are stupid.
