Say it before the thought slips away. Voice Dump is a simple place to keep spoken thoughts. Record an idea, a personal note or a reflection, then come back to it when you need it. No need to type a title before you save. KEEP THE THOUGHT Tap to start recording. Pause when you need a moment, resume when you're ready and save your voice note. Your thought doesn't need to be perfectly worded to be worth keeping. LISTEN BACK. READ THE WORDS. Keep the original audio and turn supported recordings into text with on-device speech recognition. Listen again for the detail, or read the transcript when you'd rather see the words. Transcription availability and accuracy depend on your device, language and recording. FIND YOUR WAY BACK Browse your notes, search titles and filter by category. Pin the notes you want to keep close, and archive others for later. Prefer speaking to typing? Use Speak to search on supported devices and languages. A PLACE FOR EVERYDAY IDEAS Keep a project idea, a thought for your journal or something you want to say in your next conversation. Use the included categories to give your notes a home. START WITH THE FREE FEATURES Record, save and play back your voice notes.
