## What is Selfime?

Selfime is a private meditation recorder styled after a classic field cassette deck. Choose a guided practice, make the words your own, and listen back whenever you need it - in your voice, on your device, nowhere else.

MEDITATION, GUIDED BY YOU
Start with a guided practice and record it one card at a time on the field recorder. Watch the mic meter and tape counter move, replay or redo each take, then save the tape and watch the reels turn. Prefer not to speak? Follow along quietly with Read-Along instead.

SEALED TAPES FOR FUTURE YOU
Seal a tape for a future date - or for a feeling. Open when anxious. Open when you can't sleep. Open when you're proud of yourself. Your words stay sealed until the moment you actually need them.

SIDE B
Every tape has a second side. Flip it over and add spoken reflections - a private journal in your own voice, kept with the practice that inspired it.

BREATHE
Some moments need words. Some only need quiet. Paced breathing with Calm, Box, and 4-7-8 rhythms, gentle ambience, and nothing to read or tap.

A RECORDER WORTH HOLDING
The SLF-01 transport has a VU meter, tape counter, real transport keys, and cassette shells in collectible finishes and colorways. Voice Balance gently evens out your levels without altering your recording.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No ads. No analytics. Recordings are encrypted and never leave your device. A Recovery Kit keeps your library restorable by you alone, and Mindful Minutes can be logged to Apple Health if you choose.

FREE EDITION
Includes guided practices, a Blank Tape for your own words, 3 recording slots, 1 Sealed Tape, and 5-minute Breathe sessions.

SELFIME LIFETIME
One purchase. No subscription. No account. Unlocks all 50 guided practices, unlimited recordings and Sealed Tapes, 10–30 minute Breathe sessions, every soundscape, and every premium finish and colorway. Family Sharing supported.

Your voice. Your quiet. Your time.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.1.347 — 2026-10-10

Selfime now opens reliably on iOS and iPadOS 27.2, where it could close straight after launching. 

Also in this update:
 - Security updates and patches
 - Better support for foldable iPhones: the deck now turns with you when the device is opened.

### 1.1.342 — 2026-09-24

Selfime 1.1 brings new voices, tape sharing and a faster deck.

Listen to a practice
Listen to built-in guide readings, or have your device read a practice aloud. Choose a voice when you start Read-Along and adjust its speed beside the pace control. You can also press a practice straight to tape in your chosen voice, without recording it yourself.

Send a tape
Share a tape through Messages or another app. The recipient can open it in Selfime and choose whether to add it to their library. Your journal stays private and is never included.

Read along with your own voice
Turn off narration and follow the words while listening to a tape you recorded. You can also keep adding to your journal while Side B is showing.

Edit with more control
Your selected take now shows its trimmer straight away. A magnifier helps you see where you are trimming, and slower dragging gives you finer control. Pauses between cards count down during preview, with clearer playback controls.

Pick up where you left off
Selfime offers to continue an existing draft and prevents duplicates from piling up. When you discard a recording, choose whether to archive or delete it.

Save and share faster
Saving and sharing long tapes is much quicker. Playback meters and on-device transcription use fewer resources, too.

And a few more improvements
• Long-press a tape in your library to open its actions.
• The library’s default view is now called Active, making it clear that archived tapes are hidden.
• Clearer Health and speech permission prompts help you find the right setting.
• If your library cannot be opened, you can keep a copy before starting fresh.
• More bug fixes and layout improvements throughout.

### 1.0.281 — 2026-09-08

No release notes.
