What's New in Chapterize

2.2

September 14, 2026

Chapterize 2.2 brings Siri and Shortcuts, Magic Chapters, and a rebuilt export engine. SIRI, SHORTCUTS, AND SPOTLIGHT Your episodes, shows, and chapters are available to the Shortcuts app: Open Episode, Open Show, Add Chapter, Get Chapters, and Get Chapters as Text, plus Transcribe Episode and Generate Magic Chapters on iOS 27. Say "Add a chapter in Chapterize" to Siri while an episode is playing. Episodes and shows also show up in Spotlight search. MAGIC CHAPTERS With a transcript loaded, tap the sparkles button to build a chapter list with Apple Intelligence. It works on your device, asks before replacing existing chapters, and shows its progress as it goes. Requires a device that supports Apple Intelligence. A REBUILT EXPORT ENGINE Chapterize now writes MP3 chapter tags with its own engine. Tags follow the ID3 standard exactly, chapter and episode artwork are stored as JPEG at the right size (exports with artwork are much smaller), and every export is read back and checked against the editor before the file is saved. Older Chapterize exports still open, and are cleaned up on their next export. RELIABILITY - Chapter artwork no longer disappears after an iCloud sync or after editing a chapter's title or time - A damaged session is rebuilt from its audio instead of being deleted - Imports and conversions are written in one piece, so quitting partway through never leaves a half-written file - Importing chapters from text asks before replacing your existing chapters

Lacks transcription export

Recently featured as ‘pick of the week’ on MacBreak Weekly episode #1009. Works as advertised. Offers on device transcription, but lacks export of transcription as txt or srt. You need to buy another $19.99 app from the developer. Would have been 5 stars with this inclusion of transcription export. Which I will not buy.
