QuickCast is the fastest way to capture a voice message and ship it to a webhook. Record a thought, tap once, and it lands in Slack, a Zapier flow, your own server, or wherever else your workflow lives. Core features ⢠Instant one-tap recording, optimised for speed. ⢠Real-time speech-to-text transcription that runs entirely on-device and works offline ā your audio is never sent off your iPhone to be transcribed. ⢠Unlimited webhooks with custom headers, methods, timeouts, retry policies, and per-webhook WiFi-only delivery. ⢠Multiple audio formats: AAC, WAV, Opus, FLAC. ⢠Configurable sample rate, channels, bit rate, and quality presets. ⢠Offline queue with automatic retry when the network returns. ⢠Full recording history with waveform playback, share sheet, and per-recording detail view. ⢠Home screen and lock screen widgets, plus Siri and Shortcuts integration. ⢠Storage management with automatic cleanup rules. Privacy first QuickCast does not require an account. There are no ads, no third-party advertising SDKs, and no advertising identifiers. Recordings, transcripts, and webhook settings live on your device and are only ever sent to the webhooks you configure. Anonymous usage analytics and optional crash & error diagnostics are strictly opt-in, off by default, and processed by privacy-focused EU-hosted services. Neither ever includes your audio, transcripts, or webhook details, and both can be turned off any time in Settings ā Privacy. Record. Send. Done.
