# iOS Wireless Mic: Known Limitations

### General

- If your password is changed in any nVoq application (Voice or the Administrator console) *while you are logged in to the Wireless Microphone app*, the app will return back to the sign in screen the next time you attempt to dictate. Then you can sign in with your new password.
- Your iOS device cannot simultaneously be used on a phone call and as a microphone with the app.
- The beginning of audio *may* get cut off.  The work-around is to *pause before speaking* after you tap the voice shortcut or dictation button.

##### 

### Dictation

- While you can use this app over cellular network, the iOS Wireless Mic works best when connected to WIFI.
- If you receive and/or answer a phone call on your device or navigate away from the dictation screen while you are recording a dictation, the recording will be stopped and your dictation transcript (that was captured up until that point) is pasted into your application.
- If your device loses connection to your WiFi network or due to a poor cellular connection while you are dictating, the app will NOT save your audio recording and submit it after the connection has been established.
- The iOS Wireless Microphone uses WebSocket connections for dictation unless otherwise specified via API.
- In order to protect our resources we currently only allow a maximum of eight (8) dictations to to be processed by our server for a single user at one time. If more than the maximum number of dictation requests are made, you will get an error.
