  • In certain cases, transcription may default to a related or “parent” language, even when the correct language is selected. This fallback behavior can occur with languages that share phonetics, scripts, or linguistic roots.
  • The Riverside mobile app can transcribe right-to-left languages (ex. Hebrew, Arabic), however the transcriptions will display as left-to-right.
