Voice Recorder Live Transcript

Read full description

A voice recorder that turns speech into text while you are still recording - and keeps all of it on your iPhone. WORDS APPEAR AS YOU SPEAK Tap record and the text starts building right away. You don't have to wait for the recording to finish to see what was said. EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE Speech recognition runs entirely on your iPhone. No internet connection is required, and your audio and text are never uploaded to a server. There is no account to create and nothing to sign in to. PAY ONCE, OR START MONTHLY One payment unlocks the app for good, with no further charges and no limit on how many notes you can keep. If you would rather try it first, there is a monthly option - and once you have paid the same amount as the one-time purchase, the app tells you so you can cancel and keep using it. You are not left paying without noticing. SAVE, SEARCH AND SHARE Notes are saved with timestamps. Copy them, share them by message or mail, or export as SRT, VTT or TXT. The audio file can be shared too. RE-TRANSCRIBE FROM THE RECORDING When you want a second pass, the app can transcribe the saved audio again from scratch. You see the result first and choose whether to keep it or leave your original text as it is. GOOD FOR - Interviews and lectures you want to check on the spot - Voice notes you would rather not send to a cloud service - Anyone tired of a monthly bill for transcription A NOTE ON RECOGNITION Speech recognition is not perfect - names, numbers and overlapping voices can come out wrong, and the audio is kept so you can always listen back and correct the text yourself. LANGUAGES The app transcribes Japanese and English. You can choose which one in Settings, separately from the app's display language. The first time you use a language, iOS may need to download its recognition model.
