Review Summary
Live Transcript Extension is praised for its ability to transcribe audio from any tab or microphone and its user-friendly interface. Users find it helpful across various online platforms and appreciate the easy copying of transcripts. However, multiple reports mention lower transcription accuracy compared to Chrome's Live Captions, occasional crashes causing transcript loss, and an overly large extension size. The UI's segmentation of sentences and lack of multi-language support limit the extension's usefulness, with many users hoping for improved stability and language features in future updates.

Cons

- Extension is heavy in size (~500 MiB), which can impact device storage and syncing.
- Performance issues like crashes causing loss of transcriptions during long sessions.
- Transcription interface splits sentences into many small chat bubbles often prefixed with 'Speaker', making post-editing cumbersome.
