## What is Shengye?

Shengye is a calm voice workspace for meetings, interviews, lectures, study sessions, and ideas. It connects recordings, transcripts, highlights, tags, search, and clips into one clear flow: capture, find, replay, organize, and share.

RECORD IN THE MOMENT
• High-quality long recordings with Standard and High Quality modes
• Pause and resume, with duration and input source kept visible
• Add highlights while recording
• Delayed start and automatic stop
• Start quickly from a Home Screen widget or Shortcuts
• Follow recording status from Live Activities and Dynamic Island, with resume and save controls

TRANSCRIBE AND CORRECT
• Turn saved recordings into searchable text
• Follow playback sentence by sentence with word-level highlighting
• Correct recognized text in a focused full-screen editor
• Transcription uses supported on-device system speech services; a language resource may download the first time
• New installs receive 3 trial transcriptions. One daily credit returns each day and does not stack; credits earned from rewarded video remain available

REPLAY EFFICIENTLY
• Continuous playback, speed control, and 15-second skip
• Preview a position while dragging, then seek when you release
• Keep text, highlights, and the timeline in sync
• Pause or resume the current recording from the library’s mini player
• Use headphones and system media controls

ORGANIZE WHAT MATTERS
• Add a title and note to a moment or transcript passage
• Merge overlapping highlights so the same passage appears once
• Create and manage tags, filter by one tag, pin items, and perform batch actions
• Search titles, transcript text, and highlights
• Browse a clear timeline designed for large libraries

CLIP, IMPORT, AND SHARE
• Create a clipped copy from a passage or time range while keeping the original
• Preview and export audio, text, and subtitles
• Import existing audio files
• Create and reopen Shengye backups; imports never overwrite existing recordings

PRIVACY, SAFETY, AND SYNC
• Optional iCloud sync with Shengye Pro
• Protect your library with App Lock
• Turn Trash on for recoverable deletion, or delete immediately when it is off
• Restore individual recordings or empty Trash
• Recordings stay on the device unless you choose sync, export, or share

SHENGYE PRO
• One-time purchase with permanent access
• Unlimited transcription, iCloud sync, and no ads

Availability depends on device support, system language, permissions, and purchase status. System transcription availability varies by language and region.
