Capture a thought, review the words, and turn the next step into action. Yap brings voice recordings, on-device transcription, daily PDFs and a follow-through workspace together on iPhone and iPad. NEW IN 4.0 β€’ Edit a transcript without changing its audio. Review up to 20 previous text versions and restore one into the editor before saving. β€’ Move recordings to Recently removed and restore them later. Audio is retained; nothing there is automatically erased. β€’ Export selected recordings as portable JSON backups with available audio, transcripts, edit history, tags and bookmarks. Preview an import and add separate copies. β€’ Recover unlisted audio after an interrupted save or storage failure. Unreadable audio stays available to share for outside recovery. β€’ Refreshed icon, clearer recovery controls and improved large-text layouts. CAPTURE AND REVIEW Record voice notes, add bookmarks, title and tag recordings, seek through playback and search transcripts. Speech recognition requires permission and an available on-device language model. If recognition fails or times out, your saved audio remains available and you can retry or edit the text yourself. FOLLOW THROUGH Open Focus to select up to five extracted actions, set 1–120 planned minutes per step, track active time and write an outcome. Keep up to 100 saved sessions and share reports. Finishing a step does not mark its source commitment done. Leaving the screen pauses and saves; a forced quit can lose time since the last pause. The action inbox, Loose Ends, daily wraps and insights remain available. HONEST ESTIMATES Review automatically extracted tasks and decisions. Transcript tone estimates are not measurements of mood or mental health. Speech statistics depend on transcript accuracy; possible filler matches can be meaningful words in context. PDF energy charts use captured audio measurements and show missing data as gaps. Stored audio hashes do not certify authenticity or prove that a file was never edited. BACKUP SCOPE Recording backups include up to 100 MB of audio per export; import files may be up to 150 MB. Choose smaller groups for larger libraries. Missing audio is reported. Imports create copies rather than replacing current recordings. Daily PDFs, Focus sessions, task completion, Loose Ends overrides and settings are not included. Backup files contain private data and are not encrypted by Yap. Background wrap creation is best effort: iOS decides when it runs. Open Yap to build a wrap directly. Recordings and app records stay on device unless you choose to export or share. No account, ads or subscription.
