You can turn that off at any time in Settings, and keep using Note Whisperer as a local voice recorder โ and with "Save Without Transcribing", you decide note by note what gets sent. GETTING STARTED 1. Create a free account at platform.openai.com 2. Add a small amount of credit to your account 3. Generate an API key 4. Paste it into Note Whisperer settings 5. Start recording Requires an OpenAI API key and account with available credit. OpenAI API usage charges apply.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Note Whisperer at none against Timesheet's 3. Timesheet's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
