Say it before it slips away. An idea on a walk, a sentence for your next draft, something you want to think through: say it on iPhone or Apple Watch, then carry on. Seed brings your spoken notes together in Timeline, organized by day and time. Read today, return to yesterday, or scroll back through a week of ideas without opening every recording. Come back when you have room to think. Search for a thought, highlight a passage, strike it through, or turn selected paragraphs into checklists or bulleted lists without deleting the recording. With Apple Intelligence available and turned on, a compatible iPhone makes a cleaner reading version, organizes spoken lists into bullets or checklists, and gives new recordings a short title. Your original transcript and audio stay available from each timestamp and in Recordings. Play at 1×, 1.25×, 1.5× or 2× while the text follows along. New installs keep a seven-day Timeline by default; change Auto-delete to keep notes longer or forever. Deleted notes remain recoverable for 30 days. Start with Siri, Shortcuts or a supported Action button too. Watch sends recordings to iPhone in the background. Add names and how they sound to Vocabulary so reading versions use your preferred spelling. Choose Apple Speech or download Parakeet once to transcribe on your iPhone. Downloads pause when you leave Seed and resume when you return. Choose whether to remove filler words from reading versions. Seed is free, with no account or subscription. Audio transcription stays on your iPhone, and we collect no data. Reading versions run on your device by default. Eligible iOS 27 devices can use Apple Private Cloud Compute for the reading version and title; Apple applies its own usage limits. An optional webhook sends original transcripts to your own tools.
