Feels good but
Isnt transcribing
Response from developer
Thanks for reporting this, and sorry you lost that recording. Older iPhones like the 11 were cutting long recordings short during transcription. Version 1.4.3, out now, fixes it, so a 15 minute note should come through in full. If it still happens after updating, please write to support@getmurble.com and I’ll look into it myself.
it seems good so far
Response from developer
Thanks for giving Murble a try! Recording and live transcripts are free and will stay that way. Everything runs on your iPhone, so your notes never leave the device. I hope it turns out to be the reliable one for you. If a transcript ever comes out badly, let me know at support@getmurble.com, that kind of report helps a lot.
Wanted to love it
Simple, but too limited for what it could be
Murble is very simple and easy to use, which is a positive. However, that simplicity also exposes some important limitations that significantly reduce its usefulness.
One of the biggest problems is that there doesn't appear to be a way to take all the text notes within the same folder/category and combine them into a single document. You have to deal with the notes individually. If the purpose is to build a collection of notes over time—especially a diary, journal, ideas, or a specific project—being able to select a folder and export everything together as one PDF, TXT, or other document would be extremely useful.
It would also be very useful if every note automatically displayed the date and exact time it was recorded as part of the note itself. That would make the app much more useful for keeping a chronological diary or personal record.
The organization features also need to go much further. The app should be able to understand the context of what you are saying and automatically determine where information belongs, without requiring the user to manually organize everything. For example:
“I need to buy eggs and butter” → Shopping
“I had an idea for my business…” → Business Ideas
“Tomorrow I need to call the supplier” → Work / To-Do
“Today I weighed X and exercised for 40 minutes” → Diary / Health
That kind of automatic organization is what would make an AI voice-note app genuinely different from simply dictating into Apple's Notes app.
At the moment, I don't see enough functionality to justify paying for it. The basic experience still feels too close to dictating text into the iOS Notes app, rather than having an AI assistant that actually understands, organizes, and maintains the information for you.
Murble has a good foundation, but it needs significantly better automatic organization, chronological diary functionality, and bulk export of entire folders/collections before it becomes truly useful as a long-term personal information system.

Thank you for writing all this down, it’s really useful feedback. Some good news: version 1.4.3, out now, covers part of it. You can export a whole folder as one PDF, Markdown or text file, with the notes in date order and the date and time on each one. That’s free. Murble also gives every note a category on its own (shopping, ideas, to do, health, journal and so on). A folder can collect a category’s notes automatically: open the folder’s editor and choose Add automatically. Your examples would land in those categories without any manual sorting. The bigger idea, an assistant that keeps your information organized over time, is where I’d like Murble to go. If you try the update, I’d love to hear what’s still missing: support@getmurble.com
