Nuance Dragon Dictation and Dragon Search Apps Now Available in
Egypt
Middle Eastern Expansion Continues with Support for Standard Arabic; iOS
Consumers in Egypt Now Able to Send Text Messages and Emails, Update Twitter
and Facebook, Search for Web Content and More – Just by Speaking
Burlington, Mass. and Cairo, Egypt – April 24, 2012 – Nuance Communications, Inc.
(NASDAQ: NUAN) today announced that its Dragon Dictation and Dragon Search applications
for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad are now available for free in Egypt in the Apple App Store,
supporting the Standard Arabic language. The launch in Egypt follows the availability of the
apps in Saudi Arabia and UAE, providing iOS consumers with the ability to quickly and easily
dictate SMS text messages, emails, social media updates, mobile Web searches and more, up to
five times faster than typing.
“Dragon Dictation and Dragon Search have quickly expanded their availability across the Middle
East, with launches in Saudi Arabia, the UAE and now Egypt in just the last month, providing
Arabic speaking consumers with the ability to stay connected with the power of Dragon” said
Anil Kumar, Regional Director, Nuance Middle East and Balkans. “And the success of each
launch in over 30 countries clearly demonstrates the global demand for simpler and faster mobile
interactions made possible with voice.”
Dragon Dictation is iOS-5 compatible and features a pop-up toolbar with app icons that enable
users to easily send their dictated text to email, SMS, Facebook, Twitter, or the clipboard.
Dragon Dictation also includes a convenient Auto Save function that retains dictated text when
the user is interrupted by an incoming phone call.
Dragon Search is also now available in Egypt, allowing users to simply speak their search query
in Standard Arabic to quickly and easily find information and answers on the mobile Web.
Dragon Search features Nuance’s unique and innovative Dragon Search Carousel, which delivers
faster, smarter search results within seconds across multiple channels all at once including
Google, Yahoo!, Twitter, iTunes, Wikipedia and YouTube.
Both Dragon Dictation and Dragon Search are available for free from the App Store in Egypt.
