A voice memo app that plays your recordings back at a different pitch. If you don't like hearing your own voice, you can still listen back to your memos comfortably. Transcribe your recordings on your iPhone, record on Apple Watch too, and keep every recording in iCloud. - Play back at a different pitch Choose Low, Unchanged or High for playback. Your recording file stays as it is; only the playback pitch changes. Your choice is remembered for next time. - Transcribe recordings to text Turn a recording into text in up to 10 languages, including English, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese and Italian. The languages you can choose depend on your iPhone. Transcription runs on your iPhone, and your recordings are never sent to a server. Copy the text or share it to other apps. Recordings up to 3 minutes can be transcribed for free; longer recordings need VCRecorder Pro. - Record on Apple Watch Start recording on Apple Watch with a single tap. Recordings are sent to your iPhone and added to the list, even if your iPhone wasn't nearby when you recorded. Open the app right from a watch face complication. - Sync with iCloud Recordings are saved to iCloud Drive and can be played on your devices signed in with the same Apple ID. - Simple to use Tap one button to record. Pick a recording from the list to play it or rename it. - VCRecorder Pro Transcribe recordings longer than 3 minutes and remove ads. Choose a yearly subscription or a one-time purchase. The yearly plan renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Use it for quick ideas, practicing a talk or presentation, or keeping a spoken journal.
