Our app is a simple and efficient audio recording app that starts recording with just one tap. It displays a timer and clear status indicators such as “Ready,” “Recording,” and “Paused” to keep users informed during sessions. Each recording is automatically saved in the Library with a timestamped name, making organization effortless. Users can replay their recordings directly from the Library and transcribe them using the built-in speech-to-text module in the Transcribe section. Transcriptions can be viewed and copied in the Result tab for easy sharing or reference. The free version allows up to five recordings, three transcriptions, and one folder for organization. The Premium version unlocks unlimited recordings, unlimited transcriptions, and unlimited folder creation, offering full flexibility for professional use.

It caused me problems as those meetings were important and I needed to have the notes after them. ### 1/5 — WORST AI TOOL EVER!! *2026-08-17* This is the worst AI tool I’ve ever used. You cannot export the audio, all AI features are just FAKE! It kept saying you have internet problems but the truth is the app itself is trash, it’s not able to generate transcript or summarize at all. Even the AI chatbot is not intelligent at all. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste money or time *2026-08-13* The app has several bugs. The transcription feature gets an 8 out of 10 when it works. However, it does not provide instantaneous transcription, the app records then you have to initiate the transcription process, which may take several minutes depending on the length of the recording. Additionally, there is an error message that states, "transcription service is temporarily unavailable," which hinder the app's purpose of saving time because you have to keep attempting to download the transcript. Then the summary tab doesn’t allow for copying, so if there is a lengthy recording with a summary of follow-ups, users have to manually record the AI-generated notes instead of being able to copy and paste them for immediate action. I would not recommend this app. ### 1/5 — Poor *2026-08-08* I purchased a premium lifetime subscription because I expected Fathom to be reliable for transcription and note-taking. Unfortunately, the app has become very unreliable. Transcriptions are not consistently processing, notes are disappearing, and in some cases entire transcriptions seem to vanish. For an app built around capturing important conversations, meetings, and records, that is a major problem. A premium lifetime customer should not have to worry that important notes or transcripts may disappear after relying on the app. This needs urgent attention from the support and engineering team. Until these issues are fixed, I cannot confidently recommend Fathom for serious work. **Developer response:** Hi, Thank you for sharing your experience. We're truly sorry to hear that the app hasn't been reliable for you. Missing notes and failed transcriptions are not the experience we aim to provide. We'd really like to investigate what happened and help recover the issue if possible. Please contact our support team through the app and include your account details along with the approximate dates of the affected recordings. We'll look into this as quickly as possible. Thank you for helping us improve. ### 1/5 — This is a fake app and has nothing to do with Fathom video *2026-08-08* I downloaded and did a one week trial with this app. Upon finding out that it didn’t work at all I reached out to Fathom only to have them tell me that they don’t have an app yet and this is a scam app. I am unable to get Apple to refund any of these purchases weekly $5 charges though I have reported this several times. I’m going to have to cancel my card and have the bank issue a new one as there is no way to cancel through this app because the developed is also non responsive. ### 1/5 — Absolute garbage *2026-08-03* I did a recording and tested out the transcript feature, and it worked great. I then went ahead and paid for a year of the app. Ever since I paid, I have not been able to get the recording to create the transcript. For days every single time I try it says the service is unavailable. Try again later. They took my money and now offer zero functionality. So angry. . ### 1/5 — What a lie *2026-07-29* This app doesn’t work. Been recording meetings for the past week and it starts loading but never ends up doing the job. Do not download. I WANT MY MONEY BACK! ### 1/5 — Not Legit *2026-07-28* Not the original, and does not transcribe. Records well though. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2026-07-27* When trying to get summary or notes, says unavailable at this time and try again later. Tried daily for 3 days. Same thing. Complete waste of time . ## Frequently asked questions about FantomAI ### What is FathomAI?
