Judysmayo, let me know if I'm not answering your question properly. If you are referring to the Live Transcribe app, then it is not available for the iPhone. The app is still in beta test so maybe when it is officially released, then the iPhone may be an option. If you do not have an Android, then the Otter app works best, in my opinion. Otter works on both Android and iPhone plus it does not require Wi-Fi. Both apps are free but Otter will only give 600 minutes free per month, which is sufficient. The app shows the amount of free time left. One downsize to Otter is that it does not let you change the font size within the app. The workaround is to go into the phone Settings and change the font size. It affects ALL the apps though. Hopefully, a future release of Otter will include changing the font so other apps are not affected. I've never tried using either app in a highly remote area but I'm guessing Otter will still work.
There are other apps that can do speech-to-text so don't limit yourself to just these two. Experiment when you hear of an app that helps people with hearing loss. Also, if you have good experiences, please share on this forum.
