Icelandic transcription gives you a draft to correct, written in the Latin alphabet with þ and ð. Expect a fair number of wrong words. Correct it against the recording before you share it.

Questions

Which script does it write in?

The Latin alphabet with Icelandic's own letters, þ and ð among them.

Does it translate Icelandic into English?

Yes: translate audio to English gives you the speech in English, though expect to check it as closely as the Icelandic. This page keeps the text in Icelandic.

How long can the recording be?

Up to 90 minutes, in a file under 95 MB.
