### 5/5 — Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie

*2026-07-17, version 1.24.0*

Re hehehehehehehehehe

### 4/5 — Unexpectedly great

*2026-06-28, version 1.24.0*

I use the app way more than I thought I would. Great summaries and great features. I would change a few things to give it 5 starts but dev can reach out if interested.

### 3/5 — Lost multiple important audio files

*2026-05-15, version 1.24.0*

I lost multiple very important audio files, because it kept saying processing and then said it couldn’t process. There was nothing I could do to get the audio to process.

### 5/5 — Brilliant.

*2026-04-15, version 1.24.0*

This is a really good app. And perfect for getting your ideas out. It’s been a big help to me. Well done and thanks you.

### 5/5 — Really Great App

*2026-03-19*

I appreciate the continual improvements being made. Transcribe AI has been a valuable tool for meeting notes, processing thoughts, and journaling. I can’t wait to see an Apple Watch version of the app so that I can take this tool with me everywhere!

### 1/5 — False claims

*2026-03-12*

The app claims to transcribe just about any language, in real time or otherwise. 
I uploaded a nearly 10 min video which included dialogue spanning the length of that time frame. Which the app transcribed 8 words from that clearly were not part of anything that had been said. The title of the summary made more sense than its transcription. Didn’t even identify the language. This app is setup correctly now they just need to actually make sure it works. Not there yet.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and we're sorry for the frustrating experience.

Our app currently supports transcription for 55 specific languages, which are listed in the app, and real-time transcription is not yet supported. If the video language isn’t one of the supported ones, the transcription may not work as expected.

That said, what you described doesn’t sound right, and we’d like to look into it. If possible, please contact us at support@transcribeai.app with the video language or a sample so we can investigate and improve the experience.

### 5/5 — Simplemente fabulosa

*2026-01-30, version 1.23.1*

### 5/5 — 맥에서도 마이크 권한 설정하게 해주세요

*2025-12-25*

폰에서는 잘쓰고 있는데 맥에서 설치한 앱에서 마이크 권한을 줄수가 없어 불편합니다 마이크 권한 줄수 있게 업뎃 해주세요

### 5/5 — Time Saver

*2025-12-12, version 1.22.3*

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.25.0 — 2026-08-13

- A BRAND NEW LOOK:
Transcribe AI has been redesigned from the ground up. Home, your notes, the recording screen, Ask AI, export and settings all have a cleaner, calmer design that's easier to read and faster to move around — in both light and dark mode.

- RECENTLY DELETED:
Deleted a note by mistake? Notes now go to Recently Deleted and stay there for 30 days, along with their audio and chat history. Restore them anytime from Settings, or remove them for good whenever you're ready.

- PLAYBACK SPEED AND SKIP CONTROLS:
The audio player inside your notes now has playback speed — 1×, 1.5×, 2× and 4× — plus 10-second skip buttons, so you can jump straight to the part you need.

- RENAME SPEAKERS:
When Speaker Recognition picks out the people in your recording, you can now give them real names. Open a note, tap the 3 dot menu and choose Edit Speakers — the whole transcript updates right away.

- CLASSIC IS BACK, AND GENERAL IS NOW AUTO:
Classic returns as an AI Template. It keeps your own words and point of view and simply fixes grammar, punctuation and filler words — nothing restructured.
We've also renamed the General template to Auto, because that's what it does: it detects what you recorded and structures the note to match.

- MORE RELIABLE RECORDING:
We've fixed several recording problems you reported. Recordings no longer stop when your screen locks, incoming calls and alarms no longer cut a long take short, and long sessions now end cleanly at the 2-hour limit even while the app is in the background.

- SMALL TOUCHES:
Finished notes now show the AI Template that shaped them. Exported audio is named after your note. Copying from a note confirms with a toast. Long-press a note or notebook to start selecting.

- BUG FIXES:
Notification, widget and shortcut taps now open the right screen even when the app was fully closed. Recording on Mac works again. Notebook name conflicts explain exactly what collided and how to fix it. Ask AI recovers properly when a message fails or you're offline, and hands your question back so you can retry with one tap. The audio playback no longer freeze while you scroll.

### 1.24.0 — 2026-03-18

- DELETE NOTE AUDIO OPTION:
Previously, deleting a note would remove both the note and its audio file. Now you can choose to delete just the audio file while keeping your note intact. This highly-requested feature helps you free up storage space without losing your valuable notes.

- 3 NEW AI TEMPLATES
We've added three new AI Templates to help you capture more types of content.

Church Sermon - Capture and organize key messages, scripture references, and takeaways from sermons.
Jotting Down Thoughts - Quickly turn your stream-of-consciousness recordings into clean, organized notes.
Doctor Visit - Keep track of diagnoses, prescriptions, and follow-up instructions from medical appointments.

### 1.23.1 — 2026-01-09

- NOTES NOW SAVE TO CORRECT FOLDER:
Notes are now properly saved to the folder they were created from. Previously, notes were being saved to the top level instead of their intended folder location.

- FOLDER NOTIFICATION FIX:
Fixed an issue where opening notes through notifications would cause them to open multiple times when accessed from within a folder.

- WIDGET FOLDER FIX:
Resolved a bug where opening the new note screen via widgets would cause it to open multiple times when inside a folder.

### 1.23.0 — 2025-12-22

- NEW BACKGROUND TRANSCRIPTION:
Transcription now happens on our servers, so you can switch to other apps, lock your screen, or even close the app while your audio is being processed. You'll receive a notification when your transcription is ready. No more waiting on the processing screen! Your data is automatically deleted from our servers once processing is complete.

- ENHANCED USER EXPERIENCE:
We've polished the interface in some areas to make your experience smoother and more intuitive.

- ICLOUD SYNC ON/OFF:
iCloud sync is now off by default and can be toggled on or off anytime in settings. This fixes the issue where users with full iCloud storage couldn't open the app. You're now in full control of your sync preferences.

### 1.22.3 — 2025-09-05

- ENHANCED USER EXPERIENCE:
We're committed to continuously improving your experience with Transcribe AI.
