FINALLY, an app that records in stereo!

I have a handful of recording apps on my iPad 2nd Generation, and at least one of them claims to record in stereo. (Pro tip: If you record a video in landscape mode (“sideways”), you will also get stereo audio on many newer devices, especially iPhones!) But the one in particular I’m thinking about right now only utilizes one microphone, therefore records in mono (in fairness, I’m waiting to hear back from them, as to if I’m doing something wrong).

But the reason this is important to me is that I like to record nature sounds, and recording via video uses copious amounts of memory (not surprising, of course). And be apprised that recording two channels of audio will use twice as much memory as recording in mono. But it’s still a lot less memory used than in video mode! There is a way to set the app to record in mono or stereo on the main screen, so make sure you utilize the setting for whatever way you wish.

Now on to the transcription function. Hey, this app uses the same speech function as AutoCorrect, so let the sometimes-hilarious transcriptions ensue! Haha! (I’m actually typing my review here, to ensure fewer mistakes, BTW.)

But this app gets the full 5 stars from me for ease of use, and outstanding results!

Still top notch

Went back to this from Apple’s Voice Notes.
That’s saying a lot for me.

Unreliable

It’s the second time this month that I press record and after 10-20 minutes I notice that it’s stuck on 0:00 and I missed important recordings.

It should get even better with new Siri AI when it gets here !

Very useful, and think it will get better when new Siri AI when it gets here !

J'adore

Fais ce qu'on lui demande ! Transcription, enregistrement, nickel et SANS abonnement ! 🫶🙏
