Coming soon to the App Store

Private by design

  • Works without internet, also in Airplane Mode.
  • No account, no sign-in. Private, on your own device.
  • No ads, no analytics, no tracking.
  • Your audio and text never leave the device unless you share them yourself.
iPhone Settings, Privacy section: Nothing leaves this iPhone. No network, no account, no analytics.

Text as you record

  • Recording starts the moment you tap Start. The text appears a few seconds after each pause, and the newest words stay in view.
  • No internet needed, at any point.
  • When you stop, the transcript is ready moments later, every word with its time.
