### 4/5 — Great

*2026-08-28, version 2.18.7*

So far it’s working great

### 4/5 — Owner

*2026-08-27, version 2.18.7*

First

### 3/5 — Great but

*2026-08-27, version 2.18.7*

I love the app, but I wish there were monthly plans instead of weekly plans.

### 5/5 — Best I’ve used, particularly with Apple Watch!

*2026-08-27, version 2.18.7*

This app is solid. I used to use Apple’s native “Voice Memos” app to record on my iPhone or mostly Apple Watch. The recording was good, but Apple doesn’t have a native product to decipher voices and assign speech to speakers (Apple intelligence does not do that). The app itself does a decent job “Summary” for “general” conversations, but is not technical/powerful enough to use with my technical engineering field role. The app does provide a transcript, however (I’ve used it for 2.5 hour recordings). I load that transcript on Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok (Microsoft and Meta aren’t good enough- Cllaude and CGPT are the two best, but Gemini is great for codes, etc. (Google), and Grok for graphics and another perspective). If Summary-AI could integrate with any of these powerful AI models, that would be even better (saves a step), but for now, this is one of the best apps out there!

### 5/5 — Recorded Call

Great transcribing

### 5/5 — Great App

### 2/5 — I watch iPhone recording snafu

*2026-08-26, version 2.18.7*

Very first time I tried to record a call mixed with a conversation on my Watch expecting I have a full report when I was finished ended up in a corrupted file immediately I tried it again under the ideal conditions of iPhone to AI notetaker, and it said the same thing file corrupted. Horrible product disappointed missed a lot of information on the call that I was counting on.

### 5/5 — I’m surprised 💅

*2026-08-25, version 2.18.7*

Honestly worked perfectly fine beyond expectations,gave summary for my meeting overview and as if it was an assistant taking notes …quite clean overview,very few spots missies intact only one but because I was there I understand but would be very useful for someone who was not in meeting.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-08-25, version 2.18.7*

I use Zoom RA and copilot for work. They communicate with each other and that’s all good stuff. The issue is, my ChatGPT knows me and now I can combine this tool with its transcripts easily copy them and paste them into ChatGPT and use that as my Zoom RA. IT’S WORKING LIKE A CHARM.
