## What is Vox.md?

Vox.md is a local-first quick capture app for Obsidian vaults and Markdown folders. Send text, links, photos, files, document scans, sketches, and voice to the right note without stopping to organize first.

CAPTURE MORE THAN VOICE

Add typed Markdown, a URL, photos or screenshots, files, a document scanner with on-device OCR, a sketch, or a voice recording. Combine several items in one capture, preview the result, then save it as plain Markdown.

SEND IT WHERE IT BELONGS

Capture Presets remember the destination and formatting for workflows such as your inbox, journal, task list, or meeting notes. Create a note, append or prepend to an existing file, insert beneath a heading, or write to rolling daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly notes.

Each preset can keep its own template, metadata, attachment folder, filename rules, placement, and processing preferences. Override a destination or template for one capture without changing the preset.

CAPTURE FROM MORE PLACES

Use Vox.md from the app, Share Sheet, custom keyboard, Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, Shortcuts, or Apple Watch. Pending and failed deliveries remain available for retry, so a temporary folder permission or sync issue does not lose your work.

PRIVATE VOICE TRANSCRIPTION

Transcribe speech into text on your device with Apple Speech, Whisper, or Parakeet, depending on your settings and device. Audio and transcripts are never sent to Vox.md servers. Use offline dictation and voice typing from the custom keyboard, record on Apple Watch, or export transcripts as TXT, Markdown, JSON, or YAML.

PLAIN FILES, NO LOCK-IN

Vox.md writes standard Markdown to the folders and Obsidian vaults you choose. You do not need an account or a proprietary notes database. Your files remain readable in any Markdown app.

FREE TO TRY

New users receive 15 minutes of free transcription and 10 successful Capture deliveries. A single one-time purchase unlocks unlimited use. There is no recurring subscription.

PRIVACY

Capture contents, exported notes, audio, transcripts, keystrokes, file paths, and bookmarks are not sent to Vox.md servers. Vox.md collects limited, privacy-safe onboarding analytics to understand setup problems. Microphone, camera, photo, and file access are used only when you choose those capture types.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0.6 — 2026-08-08

Meeting recordings can now separate the conversation into anonymous speaker labels, entirely on device. Enable Speaker Diarization in a Capture Preset to make long transcripts easier to follow.

New
• Add best-effort Speaker 1, Speaker 2, and other anonymous labels to iPhone recordings, imported audio, and Apple Watch transcripts.
• See the detected speaker count in History after transcription finishes.

Improved
• Live Activity controls now stop the recording you intended, while stale recording activities are cleaned up automatically.
• Long recordings stop safely before their rolling audio buffer can overwrite the beginning.

Fixed
• Quick Capture and Quick Record widgets now match light and dark appearance, keeping text and controls readable.

### 2.0.5 — 2026-08-01

Keyboard voice input now stays focused on transcription, without activating or sending a second in-app Capture.

Fixed
• Starting a recording from the Vox.md keyboard no longer lights up the Quick Capture microphone.
• Keyboard transcriptions are returned to the active text field without running a Capture Preset or exporting raw audio.
• Legacy keyboard sessions receive the same transcription-only behavior.

Improved
• Lifetime purchase options now explain individual access, Family Sharing, eligible upgrades, and trial status more clearly.

### 2.0.4 — 2026-07-31

Voice Auto-Stop now works across the keyboard, Quick Capture, widgets, Live Activities, and Apple Watch—with Automatic, Whisper, or Parakeet.

New
• Choose exactly where Voice Auto-Stop runs with independent controls for each capture path.

Improved
• Active Quick Capture recordings now show elapsed time and a live waveform.
• Send Immediately recordings can show live Apple Speech text without adding it to your draft.

Fixed
• Cancelled or previous recordings can no longer replace or clear a newer live transcript.
• Existing Markdown note and template selection is more reliable across Files and File Provider locations.

### 2.0.3 — 2026-07-30

Pause and resume Apple Watch recordings without splitting your voice note. Take a break whenever you need, then continue in the same recording before saving it to your Watch queue.

New
• Pause an active Watch recording and resume when you’re ready.
• Continue in the same audio file instead of creating separate voice notes.

Improved
• Recording time now freezes while paused and continues accurately after you resume.
• Watch widgets and complications show a clear Paused state with the captured duration.
• Stop still saves the complete recording for iPhone sync, while Cancel deletes it from your Watch.

### 2.0.2 — 2026-07-29

See how your capture habit adds up with the new private Activity Stats dashboard. Track recordings, captures, recording time, attachments, recent activity, and capture sources, all stored on your device.

New
• Open Stats from Settings to see lifetime totals for recordings, captures, recorded time, and attachments.
• Review a seven-day activity chart and a breakdown of captures from the app, keyboard, Share Sheet, widgets, Shortcuts, and Apple Watch.

Improved
• Apple Watch recordings now clearly explain when free transcription time has been used and provide a direct path to unlock unlimited transcription.
• Stats update as you capture while keeping captured content, filenames, and destinations out of analytics.
