The Best

This is by far the best Voice Memo app on iPhone. Simplicity ease of use and reliability have been fantastic for years.

Unfortunately, it disconnected from my Dropbox account, and I can't seem to reestablish it. I did remove the Dropbox app from my iPhone and reinstall, but it's still not working.

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for the great review. Keeping RecUp safe and reliable is our key concern. There was a small change in the way the Dropbox app would authenticate RecUp that has been adopted with the lastest update. Feel free to contact us a recup@egetsome.com if any issues remain. We're happy to hear from you and answer all your RecUp questions directly.

Too basic

No pause button and no playback

Does exactly what it says

Insane that no other app does something as simple as record straight to Dropbox. Thank you!

Excellent robust app for capturing ideas when they happen.

I have used this app for years to capture ideas, things to do, tidbits of info, etc. Nothing ever lost. I can then re-organize the entries in this queue into folders and such from a computer if necessary. this app has single-handedly prevented me from losing track of many things.

Best app for recording

Been using this app for years now. Got it when it was first called DropVox. It is hands down one of the single most important apps I have on my phone. As a songwriter and producer I can’t tell you how much this app has helped in catching some of my most treasured moments! 10/10

Would be 5 stars ...

If you could choose 320k mp3 quality. Otherwise, this app is perfect.

Useful but could be even better!

The app for voice recording. Easy to use, backed up to the cloud, does what it says in silence. It would be nice if it had a dedicated pause button. The double tap for pause is hard to do and I end up splitting recordings in error many times. Would have been five stars with that pause button.

Hey, we actually do support pause and resume (double tap the main button during recording). While native Google Drive support is not in the current version, we recommend using a service like IFTTT to move or copy incoming recordings from Dropbox to other storage providers. It's also our recommended path to integrate other services like transcription into your individual workflow as Dropbox is well supported by most workflow services. (Native's still coming, though.). recup@irradiatedsoftware.com

Very Good app, but needs update for Online meeting recording

App is very good for easy, quick and accurate recording. The app needs an update so Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet meetings can be recorded through a wireless Bluetooth headset (for example using Apple Air Pods). The last update was 3 years ago and before the pandemic where online meetings are now a major part of everyone’s life. However, the existing version is still recommended.

Couldn’t get it to work.

Made me sign into Dropbox. I don’t know my Dropbox info. Super annoying it doesn’t work just by downloading it. Hate it.

Worth it - buy it - worry no more

Naming your audio files? Where to place them? Are they safe and backed up?

Just download RecUp, link it to your Dropbox account, choose where the files will be uploaded and worry no more.

Could be used as a “wiretap”

Start the app. Put your phone on the table face down. Leave the room without taking your phone. Your phone continues to record.
Later you’ll know what was said when you left the room.
Note: I’m pretty sure that recording people without their knowledge or a disclaimer is illegal in most places. But I’m no lawyer.

Really love it but...

This app is exactly what I want...
Which is timestamped high quality audio recordings saved to the dropbox folder of my choice.
Unfortunately, its happened 3 times now that I recorded something and the audio file is glitchy and unintelligible. There is either an issue recording or saving the file.
I hope they fix it soon.

PS if the code is open source, I’d love to see if I can fix it.

Requires access to entire Dropbox account?

EDIT: from response seems this is possible, just hard to find

Response from developer

Hi, Sorry that you feel disappointed. If you keep holding the connect button a popup will appear where you can use App Folder Access instead of Full Access to your Dropbox. This and more options and features are also described on our help page that you can access via the question mark button on the settings screen. We try to keep the interface as uncluttered as possible, but probably will make the popup appear without the long press with the next update. Let us know if that helped at recup@irradiatedsoftware.com

Fantastic audio app

This app is very easy to use. It results in high-quality audio, and very clear file names. Very easy to find what I have recorded. I love the launch and record feature as well.

simple, works as expected

I especially love the option to start recording on launch. Developer: I’ve got another star for you if you can make a widget so I can have even more instantaneous recording!

“With Great Conveniences comes Great Cost”

Love the app. Good for people who record for me but don’t understand how to do much other than press a few buttons.

Downside? Records in lossy mp3 format which isn’t iOS native encoder. Result? Ok recordings at high file size!

But 👍🏼 overall. Thank you!
