noFriction: Record your Life

noFriction records and transcribes on your iPhone or iPad so you can stay in the moment: a meeting, a class, or anything else worth keeping. Then create notes, follow-up drafts and review guides with the AI you choose. WORK OFFLINE WITH LOCAL AI Recording and transcription run on your device. On supported devices, noFriction Pro can use Apple's on-device model for notes and review guides without a cloud AI account or API key. Finish setup and model downloads before working offline. Apple on-device AI requires iOS 26 or later, compatible Apple Intelligence hardware, Apple Intelligence enabled and its model ready. Or connect cloud AI in one step: sign in with OpenRouter, or paste your key for ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Mistral or Muse. A model you run yourself works through any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. noFriction hosts no AI models and includes no cloud AI usage. A cloud provider is optional, uses your own account and may charge you. The app asks permission before sending recording content to it. RECORD ANYTHING, FIND WHAT MATTERS • Say what it is when you record: Meeting, Class or Personal. Notes, marks and the review guide follow the type • Choose how long to record (15 to 90 minutes, or no limit); it stops by itself after a warning with +15 min • Live transcription with Apple's on-device speech recognition, even with the screen locked • Mark moments as you record: Important, Question, or the type's own mark, with a note • Group recordings into Notebooks, such as "Acme project", "BIO 101" or "Health" • Play back audio and search everything you've recorded • Add photos of slides, whiteboards and handouts • See web addresses said in a recording; nothing is fetched FOR MEETINGS • Link recordings to calendar events and their attendees • Meeting notes (summary, key topics, decisions, action items) and follow-up email drafts FOR CLASSES • Lecture notes: key concepts, definitions and examples, and announcements and deadlines • The review guide becomes a study guide, with questions to ask your instructor. Moments marked On the test or Important get extra weight FOR EVERYDAY LIFE • Personal covers everything else: conversations, appointments, talks, ideas • Notes with a summary, key points, and to-dos and reminders REVIEW ANY RECORDING noFriction Pro makes a review guide from any recording: summary, key terms, flashcards, a practice quiz and questions to ask. Export flashcards as a CSV file that popular flashcard apps can import, or share the whole guide as Markdown. Check generated text before relying on it. KEEP CONTROL OF THE RECORD Edit transcript text, remove unwanted material, or use Strike from the record to leave a visible marker. Deleting or striking text also deletes that recording's review guide. Export any recording as a package: notes, highlights, the photos and screens you pick and the transcript, as a document and printable web page. Recordings stay on your device; no account is needed.
