Enhanced Security
The Olympus Dictation App lets users encrypt files (256-bit) and modify metadata directly on their smartphone. It’s security at your fingertips.
Advanced Recording Tools
The Olympus Dictation App provides complete control over your audio dictation. It offers tools like Record (Insert and Overwrite) with Voice Activation, enabling seamless dictation. You can create new files and continue working on them until ready to finalize. Playback control features include Play, Rewind, and Fast-Forward. Bluetooth Microphones are supported, and work types and Author Identification can be set for transcriptionists’ convenience.
Full Workflow Integration
The Olympus Dictation App for iPhone and Android is fully compatible with existing Olympus Dictation Management System (ODMS) software workflows. That means you can send files individually or in batches, via email or Olympus Dictation Delivery Service (ODDS) servers, and have them automatically routed just like files off of your dedicated recording device.
Secure audio file transmission
A company’s data holds immense value, and when utilizing Olympus Dictation for iPhone or Android in conjunction with ODDS (Olympus Dictation Delivery Service), organizations gain access to a comprehensive set of security features. This includes the ability to record dictations in the highly secure DSS Pro format, incorporating 256-bit AES encryption to safeguard the confidentiality and integrity of the data.
Add pictures and text comments to your recordings.
There are many situations in professional life where the spoken word only really gains value together with a visual stimulus to accompany it. And many descriptive work processes where images are indispensable. Now experts, consultants and assessors can attach a picture to any dictation they make – no matter whether it was recorded using an Olympus DS-7000/DS-3500 recorder or the Olympus Dictation app – before sending both together to the typist.
Olympus Dictation Portal
Olympus Dictation Portal (ODP) is a highly secured and flexible web-based configuration tool that allows administrators to centrally manage the Olympus Dictation app and corresponding ODDS licenses.
Configuration functions such as the destination address of dictations and encryption settings are controlled by the administrator, meaning that authors (the end users) are free to concentrate on dictation using their app. This keeps everything as simple as possible and avoids user errors.
Available in Six Languages
The ODDS App is available in English, German, French, Spanish, Swedish, Czech.
