# Snicksnack – Speech to Text — On-device meeting transcripts > On-device meeting transcripts (iPhone/iPad app by Mattias Ahlstrom.) - Source: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/snicksnack-speech-to-text/id6815631052 (this page in markdown: same URL + `.md`) - Developer: [Mattias Ahlstrom](https://appshunter.io/developer/1838316114) - Category: Productivity, Business - Price: Free - Age rating: 4+ - Requires: iOS 26.0 · 19 MB - Languages: American English, Swedish - Released: 2026-11-04 - Data updated: 2026-11-06 ## What is Snicksnack? Snicksnack turns speech into text while you talk. Meetings, interviews, lectures and quick notes are transcribed right on your iPhone. No audio leaves it. Swedish is its specialty, with a speech model trained especially for Swedish. Snicksnack also writes English and 23 other European languages. HOW IT WORKS • Tap the bubble. Recording keeps going in your pocket, even with the screen locked. • Talk. The text grows as you speak. • Tap Stop. The whole recording is transcribed again for better text, and the speakers are sorted out. THE LITTLE EXTRAS • 25 languages: Swedish, English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Finnish, Danish and more. Pick a second language and switch to it with one swipe. • Who said what: the text is split up by speaker. Name them and the names show up everywhere. • Title, tags and a note on every recording. Dictate them or type. Search everything. • Tap a word to play the audio from there. • Edit right in the text. • Summarize: decisions, to-dos, minutes or quotes. Apple Intelligence does it on the phone, and every point links to its place in the audio. • Quick notes that you merge at the end of the day. • Transcribe audio files from other apps: voice memos, voicemails, interviews. • Apple Watch: record on your watch, the text arrives on your phone. • Shortcuts, the Action button and Control Center. • Share as text, Markdown, subtitles or audio. • Keep the text and delete the audio when you want to save space. • Optional: send a recording to a server you choose, for example at work. Nothing is sent unless you choose to. IT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE The speech models run on your phone. No accounts, no analytics, no ads. You only need the internet the first time, to download the speech model (about 500–650 MB depending on the language). Snicksnack works on iPhone 11 and later with iOS 26. Summaries need an iPhone with Apple Intelligence. Snicksnack is built on Klang Pianissimo for Swedish and Danish, NVIDIA Parakeet for other languages and pyannote community-1 for speakers. All under CC BY 4.0. ## Is Snicksnack safe? Not enough ratings yet to assess Snicksnack. ## Is Snicksnack legit? Snicksnack – Speech to Text appears legitimate, with a few gaps.

It downloads when you choose Danish (631 MB). Speakers now finish even if you lock the phone right after Stop. ### 2.2 — 2026-11-03 Snicksnack now speaks English. The whole app is available in English, and if your iPhone isn't set to Swedish, Snicksnack starts in your phone's language (or English) and only downloads the model for it. You can switch the app's language in iOS Settings. Summaries and title suggestions are written in the language of the recording. The Action button, Control Center and Shortcuts now just record, like the Apple Watch. The text is written when you open the app or stop, so recording starts faster and uses less battery. Recordings where nothing was said and that are only a few seconds long are no longer saved, and silent ones aren't sent to receivers. Available in more countries. ### 2.1.2 — 2026-11-01 Talarna hålls nu isär på alla telefoner, inte bara de nyaste, och fler än fyra personer kan få var sin röst. Livetexten pausar inte längre i onödan precis i början av en inspelning. Om en inspelning avbryts visar låsskärmen det, i stället för att fortsätta räkna. När en nedskrivning i bakgrunden går fel får du ett tydligt besked. ### 2.1.1 — 2026-10-24 Inspelningar på flera timmar. Appen klarar nu långa möten med låst skärm: skärmen uppdateras inte i bakgrunden, livetexten pausar om telefonen blir varm och fortsätter när den svalnat, och snacket sparas säkert även när du stoppar från låsskärmen eller låter appen putsa texten med skärmen låst. Om nedskrivningen går fel visas felet i arkivet med Försök igen, och du kan alltid skriva ner ett snack igen från ljudet via menyn. Mac: inspelningsvyn kraschade när arket skulle visas. Rättat. ### 2.1 — 2026-10-19 Skicka snack till en server du själv valt. Lägg till en mottagare med en QR-kod och skicka text och ljud dit från Skicka-menyn, eller håll fingret på ett snack på startsidan. Inget skickas utan att du väljer det. Mottagaren kan sammanfatta och chatta om snacket med sin egen AI, även medan du spelar in. Du ser alltid vart texten går. Anteckningar: skriv egna anteckningar till varje snack, också under inspelningen. Apple Watch: komplikationer på urtavlan som startar inspelningen direkt, och genvägar för Siri och Action-knappen. ## More apps by Mattias Ahlstrom - [First Five](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/first-five/id6752224724) - [Brusmaskin](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/brusmaskin/id6795069855) - [Samlaren: citat & anteckningar](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/samlaren-citat-and-anteckningar/id6818839769) - [Poddbiten: podcast clips](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/poddbiten-podcast-clips/id6824422354) All apps by Mattias Ahlstrom: https://appshunter.io/developer/1838316114 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
