## What is Silo Transcribe?

Silo Transcribe is a private, on-device meeting-notes app for iPhone and iPad. Record microphone audio, transcribe it locally with Apple SpeechAnalyzer, and create summaries with Apple Foundation Models. No bot joins your call, and no audio or transcript is uploaded to a cloud service.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
* Record microphone audio for a meeting, lecture, interview, or voice note.
* Read and edit the transcript on your device.
* Review low-confidence lines using the recognition engine's real confidence values.
* Create a local summary and action items from the transcript.
* Search past sessions and copy or export accepted transcript text.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
* No account, analytics, telemetry, or cloud transcription.
* Audio, transcripts, and summaries remain in the app's private container unless you choose to export them.
* The iPhone and iPad app records microphone audio only. It does not capture system audio and does not claim speaker diarization.

PRICING
* One-time App Store purchase; no subscription.

REQUIREMENTS
* A compatible iPhone or iPad and current Apple on-device language-model availability for local summaries. Transcription remains an on-device operation.

### 5/5 — Local Transcription

*2026-06-28*

Love this for transcribing my audio recordings without internet access and privately, simple but functional app for its purpose.

**Developer response:** Thank you. Private transcription with no internet involved is the entire brief — the audio never leaves your machine and there is no account behind it. "Simple but functional" is the compliment I was aiming for.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.8.1 — 2026-08-22

Exports now save a real file. They previously ran through a browser download the app window could not complete, so nothing reached your device. Each export now opens a share sheet on iPhone and iPad, and reports a real error instead of failing silently.

Review uncertain transcript lines in one focused queue. Choose a real confidence threshold, move previous or next without losing your place, listen to the exact available audio, correct a line transactionally, or accept it without inventing an edit. Unknown-confidence, completed, unavailable-audio, failure, and no-issues states are all explicit on iPhone and iPad.
