Speak it. It's done. You had a great idea while driving. By the time you could type it, it was gone. TellDone catches it. Record a voice note, and in 10 to 30 seconds it becomes tasks, calendar events, reminders, and notes, synced to the apps you already use. HOW IT WORKS 1. Say your plans, ideas, or to-dos 2. TellDone transcribes your voice and pulls out tasks, events, and reminders 3. Everything syncs to your apps automatically RECORD FROM ANYWHERE - Lock Screen and Control Center: start a voice note without unlocking your iPhone - Action Button: one press to start - Widgets: record from your Home Screen, see today's tasks and what's next - Apple Watch: record from your wrist - Shortcuts and Siri: add notes, check tasks, search by voice - Keeps recording while you use other apps BRING YOUR OWN AUDIO Already have a recording? Share a Voice Memo or any audio file into TellDone from Files, Messages, or Mail, and get the same tasks, events, and notes. Each file can be up to 5 minutes on Free, 10 on Basic, 60 on Pro, and 90 on Ultra. EDIT BY TAP OR VOICE Tap any field on a note, task, or event to change it. Changes save automatically. Prefer to talk? Swipe a row, tap Add by voice, and say "this is done" or "move it to Friday". The item updates. Every edit goes into a history you can undo.
