Capture a thought the moment you have it. Raise your wrist, record a voice note on Apple Watch, and find it waiting on your iPhone. On iPhone, your words appear as you speak with a live transcript, and Dexter turns what you said into a to-do list. CAPTURE FROM YOUR WRIST • Record voice notes on Apple Watch. They arrive on your iPhone with the audio, ready to play. • Dictate or scribble a quick note or task on the Watch in a couple of taps. • No phone in reach? Watch captures wait and sync when your iPhone is back in range. RECORD WITH A LIVE TRANSCRIPT • Record on iPhone and read the transcript as you talk. Pause, resume, and fix any word before you save. • Every recording stays with its note, so you can replay what was said. • Speech recognition follows your Apple device settings.
