What are the main benefits of Nuance Dragon Anywhere Mobile On-Premise?

Dragon Anywhere Mobile is Nuance's professional-grade speech recognition app for iOS and Android, built for professionals who create documentation away from their desk.

Faster Than Typing — Capture detailed notes at speaking speed.
Desktop Continuity — Customisations sync with Dragon Professional Anywhere desktop.
Shared Customisations — Push vocabularies and auto-texts across the team.
Data Control — On-premise administration keeps user management in-house.
Encrypted Transfer — AES 256-bit encryption protects data in transit.

What does Nuance Dragon Anywhere Mobile On-Premise do?

It converts speech into fully formatted documents on iOS and Android, with no time or length limits on a single dictation. You edit and style text using natural voice commands such as "new paragraph" or "bold that", and build auto-text templates to fill structured forms by voice. The On-Premise variant runs its user administration through a Nuance Management Center that your organisation hosts, rather than the Nuance cloud console. In practice, an inspector or claims adjuster can dictate a complete on-site report on a phone without typing a word.

Who is Dragon Anywhere Mobile On-Premise best suited for?

It fits mobile professionals with heavy field documentation, such as lawyers, inspectors, insurance adjusters, social workers and public-safety officers. The auto-text feature lets them navigate report fields by voice using commands like "Next field" and "Previous field", which speeds up repetitive intake forms that would otherwise be typed on a small screen. The on-premise administration layer specifically suits organisations that need user, licence and customisation management kept on their own infrastructure. That combination is what separates it from a plain individual dictation app.

How does the On-Premise Group version differ from the individual Dragon Anywhere subscription?

The dictation engine and voice features are identical; the difference is central management. The On-Premise Group deployment adds a self-hosted Nuance Management Center for provisioning users, assigning licences, tracking usage and pushing shared vocabularies and auto-texts across the whole team. The individual subscription keeps every customisation personal, with no admin console. Choose the On-Premise option when governance and centrally controlled customisations matter more than single-user simplicity.

Does the On-Premise option mean dictation works offline?

No. Dragon Anywhere Mobile uses cloud-based speech recognition and needs an active internet connection to dictate. The mobile app connects to a cloud-hosted server component, with data encrypted in transit and at rest using AES 256-bit encryption. "On-Premise" refers to hosting the Nuance Management Center administration server on your own infrastructure for user, licence and customisation control — it does not move the speech engine onto your devices, so there is no fully offline or air-gapped dictation.

Can I continue documents between the mobile app and my desktop Dragon?

Yes. Custom words, commands and auto-texts synchronise with Dragon Professional (supported editions) or Dragon Professional Anywhere the next time you log in. You can also import existing documents into the app to keep editing on mobile, then finish desktop-started work in the field or vice versa. This is the practical value: draft a report on a job site by voice and complete the formatting later at your PC without rebuilding your custom vocabulary.

Which languages and devices does Dragon Anywhere Mobile support?

It supports US English, UK English, Canadian English, French (Canada), French (France) and German on iOS and Android smartphones and tablets. Bluetooth microphones are supported, which helps recognition accuracy in noisy field or vehicle environments. Dictation is limited to those six languages, so it is not suitable for teams needing Spanish, Italian or Asian-language recognition.

Frequently asked questions about Nuance Dragon Anywhere Mobile On-Premise

How can I share documents dictated in Dragon Anywhere Mobile?

You can email a document by voice or save it to cloud storage such as Dropbox or Evernote, and export or share it directly from the app. You can also import existing files into the app to edit them by voice, which keeps a single document moving between colleagues and devices.

Do I need a Windows or Mac computer to use Dragon Anywhere Mobile?

No. It is a standalone iOS and Android app that works without a desktop installation. A desktop connection is optional and only adds value if you also run Dragon Professional or Dragon Professional Anywhere, in which case your customisations stay in sync across both.
