About
Turn what you hear into notes you can revisit.
Pro Note Taker helps you record lectures, seminars, meetings, and language practice on iPhone and iPad. Import supported audio or video from Files, read transcripts and translations, and organize your study notes in a local library.
CAPTURE AND UNDERSTAND
• Transcribe speech from your microphone or an imported audio/video file.
• Read the original text with its translation.
• Open large, in-app captions while recording.
• Keep saved transcripts on your device and find them in Library.
• Use the wider layout on iPad and the expanded iPhone Duo display to read records beside the selected transcript.
REVIEW AND SHARE
• Choose Academic Summary, Exhaustive Notes, Meeting Minutes, or Brief Summary.
• Generate notes from your transcript and keep them with the recording.
• Export Word documents, text, Markdown notes, or timed SRT subtitles.
• Explore a clearly labeled example recording from an empty Library.
CHOOSE YOUR SERVICES
• Apple Speech works without an API key but may send audio to Apple; permission and consent are requested before use.
• Apple Translation uses supported downloaded language packs. Prepare offline languages in Settings.
• Local notes use Apple Intelligence when available, with a clearly labeled extractive key-point preview otherwise.
• Connect to your own Ollama server over HTTPS. Ollama and its model run on your computer or server, not on the phone. Thinking is disabled; slow responses can take up to 30 minutes and can be cancelled.
• Bring your own OpenAI, Claude, Alibaba Cloud Bailian, or compatible AI-service account for notes.
• Deepgram and Bailian offer optional cloud transcription; DeepL offers optional cloud translation. Speaker labels require Deepgram.
ENGLISH AND CHINESE
The interface follows your system language: English or Simplified Chinese, with English for other languages. You can also choose an interface language in Settings. Transcripts and translations retain their own content languages.
No app account is required. Records remain on this device. API keys are stored in Keychain. The app explains the selected service before sending audio or transcript text. Third-party accounts, supported models, regional availability, pricing, and quotas apply; unlimited cloud usage is not included. A custom server's operator determines where its processing occurs.
Requires iOS 26 or later. Apple Intelligence features require a supported device and Apple Intelligence availability. Keep the app open for file imports and note generation; an interrupted import can be retried.
The mobile app captures microphone audio and imported files. System audio from other apps and cross-app floating subtitles are features of the separate Mac version. AI notes and translations may contain errors; check important details against the original transcript.
