Voice Stream Memo

Features
Read full description

Voice Stream Memo turns what you say into live text and saves it as a text memo. It is designed for moments when speaking is faster than typing, or when you want to talk through a longer thought without losing what has already been recognized. Key features: • Live speech-to-text See your speech appear as text while you talk. • Built for longer voice input When Speech Recognition finishes one segment, the app continues with a new segment while keeping the text already captured. • History Stop recording to save the resulting transcript. Review, copy, or delete saved memos later. • Transcribe video and audio files Import a video from Photos or select a video/audio file and convert its speech into text. • Apple Watch support Record from Apple Watch, send the audio to your paired iPhone for transcription, and review your memo history from the Watch. • Quick access Start from Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, Shortcuts, Apple Watch Smart Stack, or a watch-face complication. Useful for: • Capturing ideas quickly • Taking notes when typing is inconvenient • Talking through thoughts you want to keep • Saving longer spoken notes as text • Turning speech from video or audio into text Voice Stream Memo uses Apple Speech Recognition. The app focuses on saving transcribed text rather than keeping your recordings as an audio library.
