VoiceClue

A six-minute voice message. Three sentences that matter. VoiceClue finds them. Share a voice message from WhatsApp or a recording from Voice Memos with VoiceClue — and seconds later, read what's inside: a clean transcript, a summary that gets to the point, and a title you'll find it under again. WHAT'S INSIDE WON'T GET LOST – To-dos: whatever needs doing shows up as a list. When VoiceClue isn't sure, it asks instead of guessing. – Events: add detected dates to your calendar with one tap. – Ask: "When did Elena want to drop off the keys?" Ask across your messages — VoiceClue searches every transcript and takes you to the spot. EVERY CLAIM HAS ITS RECEIPT – Whatever VoiceClue pulls out is highlighted in the transcript — nothing invented, everything traceable. – Tap a highlight to hear that exact moment of the recording. – Fix misheard words right in the text. – Full-text search across all your messages. YOUR PEOPLE, YOUR ORDER – Messages sort themselves into folders, one per sender. – If you want, VoiceClue learns voices and suggests the sender automatically. Voice recognition runs entirely on your iPhone and can be turned off anytime. – Blue dots mark what you haven't read yet. BUILT PRIVATE – No account, no sign-up. – Your recordings are stored encrypted on your device. – Audio is uploaded for analysis and deleted from the server after processing. – Optional sync between your devices, end-to-end encrypted. START FREE 30 minutes of analysis per month are free. VoiceClue Pro raises that to 1,000 minutes — monthly or annual subscription, cancel anytime. VoiceClue speaks English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Turkish, and Greek. Stop scrubbing. Start reading.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: VoiceClue at none against Focustown's shown. Focustown's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 days) and chart position (#186 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
