Please fix

When recording from the Apple Watch the recording you can’t play on loudspeaker it only plays with the earpiece like when you’re on a call to somebody that’s the only way you can hear the recording it does not be on loudspeaker. There is no option. Please fix this.

Transcription needs improvement

I recorded a virtual meeting on my MacBook using both Quicktime and JPR from my watch. I then ran the QT audio through MacWhisper for a transcription and compared it to the transcription JPR generated. JPR was significantly worse in all categories: speaker separation, accuracy, formatting, proper names, and ease of summarization. However, when I ran the JPR recording through MacWhisper, it was >>better<< than the QT recording, showing that JPR’s recording is very good, but the transcription needs improvement.

Exactly what I needed

Just Press Record is simple, fast, and genuinely useful. I wanted an easy way to record from my Apple Watch without having to pull out my phone, and this app does exactly that.

The ability to record from the Watch, sync to my phone, and copy the transcript is perfect for quick thoughts, work notes, reminders, and anything I need to capture before I forget it. It is clean, practical, and does not get in its own way.

This is one of those apps that solves a real problem without making the solution more complicated than the problem. Highly recommend.

This app is simply the best

At my workplace I’ve run into some coworkers with some very questionable and straight up harassing statements towards me that I’ve been able to record, since I’m in a one party recording consent state, and forward it to HR since I’ve had the evidence recorded from my watch. There was once it stopped recording but I believe that was just from me listening to music on and off from my watch. Regardless 10/10 amazing app !

Lovely app

This is a great app. The sound is excellent quality, it’s simple to use and you can listen with your phone in another app or locked.

One feature I need desperately which this app doesn’t have is the ability to continue adding sound to the same recording. There is a pause option which allows you to continue adding sound but if you leave the app or the kids need me and the app closes for whatever reason you can’t go back into the recording and continue where you left off. I hope this feature can be added in the future. It would make this app perfect for me. (Selfish I know)

Otherwise, excellent app.
