## What is Fields?

Fields is a portable field recording app for capturing, organizing, and editing sounds in one place. Record sounds wherever you are, organize them with photos, notes, and locations, and edit your recordings directly in the app.

Capture new material with the built in microphone or an external audio interface, import existing audio files, and keep everything organized in one place.

Fields includes useful editing tools such as cut, copy, crop, reverse, fades, gain, normalize, filter, pitch, speed, trim silence, and noise reduction.

A pre roll buffer helps you save sounds that happened just before you pressed Record, while automatic location tagging and the built in map make it easy to remember where each recording was captured.

Your recordings belong to you. Fields requires no account, uses no tracking, and lets you choose between iCloud and Local Storage.

### 4/5 — Idea is great but there are issues…

*2026-07-25*

After recording a 45 minutes recording, app simply stopped working (crashes practically on launch). A shame.

### 5/5 — Genial

*2026-07-17*

Top.

**Developer response:** Please, download the latest version, it should fix most of the issues.

### 3/5 — Not able to select the mics of the iPhones while earbuds are connected.

*2026-07-05*

Not able to select the mics of the iPhones while earbuds are connected. That makes the app unusable for me unfortunately. Each time I want to record something I need to make sure no Bluetooth earbuds are connected. That leads to mistakes for me at least.

**Developer response:** You can do that via Control Center with the latest iOS versions. There's a video in the PDF manual and in the product page on our website, search for "quick video" and you'll see how to do it.

### 5/5 — Masterclass

*2026-06-23*

Excellente application ! L’idée de pouvoir accompagner chaque enregistrement d’une photo et de la géolocalisation, c’est un + non négligeable. Le mode édition est plutôt complet. Il manque juste la possibilité d’enregistrer en 96 kHz et une petite traduction en français

### 5/5 — Genial

*2026-06-18*

So macht Recording Spass, nicht nur im Feld. 
Teilweise hängt das uinterface. (Lag bei bestimmten Aktionen). Auch bleibt die App beim Start manchmal schwarz. (iPhone 16 Pro). Der iCloud sync von neuen recordings erscheint erst am anderen device nachdem man die App geschlossen und wieder geöffnet hat. Das könnte man noch genauer untersuchen und verbessern. Ansonsten wirklich tolle software auf die ich seit 20 jahren gewartet habe.

### 5/5 — This is EXCELLENT

*2026-06-13*

Anybody who wants to record sound on their device should have this app. It’s laid out really well, offers a great deal of functionality, and is a perfect, important addition to any sound-recording app collection.

### 3/5 — Great but…

*2026-06-13*

I have a few Audio Things VST’s and saw this in an email. I already have a field recording app (Tape It) but thought I’d give this a go. In all honesty it’s great, and has more useful features features than my current app. But it’s missing one thing that the other has and I can’t live without. The ability to have a ‘lock screen widget’. Without that it’s not much use and won’t get used.

### 5/5 — What I’ve Been Waiting For

*2026-06-12*

iPhone has been a passable camera for a while, and now it’s a very useful audio recorder. Record, edit, notate, and tag your audio. Worth twice the price!
