WizardNote turns your voice into finished notes. Tap once to capture a thought, meeting, or idea — the app transcribes it right on your iPhone and saves it as a markdown note to a folder you choose. A perfect companion for Obsidian. NO SUBSCRIPTION, NO ACCOUNT • Transcription runs entirely on device (Whisper) — works offline • Recordings, transcripts, and notes stay with you; no telemetry • Pro is a one-time purchase FREE FEATURES • One-tap recording that keeps going with the screen locked • On-device transcription with background queue • Markdown notes, player, archive, audio sharing • Action Button, Control Center, widget, Siri, Live Activity WIZARDNOTE PRO (one-time) • AI summaries with action items — Apple Intelligence, your own server (LM Studio/Ollama, incl. Tailscale), OpenAI, Anthropic, or Azure AI Foundry (your own keys, stored in Keychain only) • Tasks: action items from summaries as a checklist • More accurate transcription models • Save directly to your own folder — e.g. an Obsidian vault on iCloud • Custom summary prompt; share note/transcript/summary • Shortcuts: find a note (searches transcripts, not just titles), pull its transcript, summary, tasks or whole markdown note, stop a recording, hand an audio file over for transcription • Notes label AI content: provider and model in the frontmatter, and a line under the summary stating that a model wrote it ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | WizardNote Pro | $9.99 | one-time | ## Version history (last 3 releases) ### 2.1 — 2026-09-18 Version 2.1 — Shortcuts, AI content labelling, and recording that survives. SHORTCUTS (Pro) • Find Notes — searches transcript text, not just titles • Get Note Text — summary, transcript, tasks, or the whole markdown note • Get Tasks from Note — a list to feed the next step of an automation • Stop Recording and Transcribe Audio File — a file from another app straight into the queue • The read actions work even when the app is not running • "Record a Note" stays in the free app — Action Button, Control Center, widget and Siri are unchanged AI CONTENT LABELLING • Notes carry a `generated_by` line in the frontmatter with the provider and model that wrote the summary • A short line under the Summary heading states that the text was generated by an AI model and should be checked against the transcript • Transcripts are not labelled — a transcript is a record of speech, not generated text CONSENT FOR SENDING DATA • Consent applies to a specific recipient, not to a provider — a second self-hosted server or a different Azure gateway asks again • Settings → Sending consents lists every recipient you approved, each with a Revoke button; after revoking nothing is sent there and the endpoint stops being the default • The app also asks for consent in a recording's detail, right before sending — not only when switching providers in Settings • The "Own infrastructure" flag is only suggested from the address of a new endpoint; turning it on is the user's decision RECORDING RELIABILITY • Recording keeps going when AirPods connect or disconnect mid-session — until now it stopped silently and the rest was never saved • Opening another recording's detail while recording no longer ends the recording • A recording cut short by a crash or a shutdown comes back whole; until now it showed up as zero seconds with an empty transcript • The Live Activity disappears after a crash instead of counting up on the lock screen for a recording that no longer exists • Audio imported from another app is no longer lost when a second import is already running NOTES, QUEUE AND PURCHASE • If a note cannot be written to your chosen folder, the app says so — until now the failed write passed silently • "Try again" after a failed write only repeats writing the note; the finished transcript and summary are not recomputed • A transcript the system killed halfway can be finished with "Finish transcription" — it used to stay stuck • The transcription queue keeps going in the background even after the system terminated the app • Edits made during a long transcription or summary (title, speaker names, flags) are no longer overwritten by the result • An unfinished Pro purchase is completed — the app no longer stays paid without being unlocked ### 2.0 — 2026-08-30 Version 2.0 — a new look, and tasks that actually reach your system. NEW DESIGN • Rebuilt recordings list: cards with status, transcript preview, task count and duration, grouped by day • New recording detail with an audio waveform — play and scrub by tapping or dragging • Custom typography (Space Grotesk + Inter) TASKS WITH DUE DATES • Summaries now return a deadline for each task plus the transcript sentence it came from — that sentence is highlighted in the transcript • Send tasks to Reminders in one tap, deadlines included (understands Czech and English: today, tomorrow, on Friday…) • Tasks are written into the markdown note as "- [ ]" — compatible with Obsidian Tasks MORE • Automatic recording title from the content; rename from the list or the detail • Import audio from other apps — call recordings, Teams or Zoom exports • The transcription model now downloads in the background and survives a locked screen or leaving the app • The custom endpoint can use an API key (LiteLLM, vLLM, OpenRouter, corporate proxies) • Many fixes — notes no longer lose their task list, the detail view opens without a memory spike, and same-day deadlines are scheduled correctly ### 1.0 — 2026-07-24 No release notes. ## Apps similar to WizardNote | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Diktator!](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/diktator/id6781886922) | — | Free | Productivity | | [Vox.md - Quick Capture Notes](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/voxmd-quick-capture-notes/id6758967337) | 4.5 (2) | Free | Productivity | | [Voice to Text - Transcribe V2T](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/voice-to-text-transcribe-v2t/id6749439105) | 4.7 (19) | Free | Productivity | | [GreenPT - Sustainable AI Chat](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/greenpt-sustainable-ai-chat/id6754269682) | 4.5 (4) | Free | Productivity | | [Conduit: Open WebUI & AI](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/conduit-open-webui-and-ai/id6749840287) | 4.2 (80) | $3.99 | Productivity | | [LIIS Office](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/liis-office/id1524278405) | 3.0 (1) | Free | Productivity | --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
