Yap!! is a local-first voice memo app for people who think out loud. Tap the mic when an idea shows up, keep moving, and come back at wrap-time. Yap!! records your voice memos, transcribes them on device when available, finds action items and recurring themes, and turns the day into a polished report you can open, save, or share. Version 2.2 adds Loose Ends: Yap!! now threads commitments, decisions, risks, and questions across days, parses spoken deadlines, and shows follow-through context alongside the existing Decision Brief workflow. Every number on Loose Ends taps through to the exact sentence on your own recording. What Yap!! does: - records quick voice memos - transcribes speech with Apple's speech recognition when available - threads commitments across days in Loose Ends and parses spoken deadlines into due dates - groups each day into a simple chronicle - extracts action items from natural phrases - builds a Decision Brief with decisions, risks, next moves, and questions - finds recurring themes across the day - tracks an audio-energy mood arc - supports bookmarks while recording - exports a daily PDF report - searches memos by keyword, title, transcript, and tag - tracks daily capture streaks and lifetime stats - exports transcripts as text or CSV - keeps audio, transcripts, settings, and reports on device Yap!! is built for private daily capture. There is no account, no developer cloud, no analytics SDK, no advertising SDK, and no tracking.
