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 • Edit a transcript without changing its audio. Review up to 20 previous text versions and restore one into the editor before saving. • Move recordings to Recently removed and restore them later. Audio is retained; nothing there is automatically erased. • Export selected recordings as portable JSON backups with available audio, transcripts, edit history, tags and bookmarks. Preview an import and add separate copies. • Recover unlisted audio after an interrupted save or storage failure. Unreadable audio stays available to share for outside recovery. • 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.

Optimized for iPhone Duo. Built with the latest SDK, the app fills the entire inner display and automatically adjusts its layout whether the device is folded or open. Scan contracts, receipts and IDs into crisp PDFs — then find any of them later by typing one word from inside the document. On-device text recognition (OCR) reads every scan and auto-sorts it into Receipts, IDs, Cards and Contracts, so you never hunt by file name again. It all works offline: nothing is uploaded, no account, same in airplane mode. Lock the app with Face ID and export password-protected PDFs. SEARCH INSIDE YOUR DOCUMENTS — OFFLINE • On-device text recognition (OCR) reads every scan automatically. • Search for a word and find the document that contains it — not just by its name. • Scans are auto-sorted into Receipts, IDs, Cards, Contracts and more — all offline. • View and copy the recognized text, or export it as a .txt file. It never leaves your device. LOCKED & ENCRYPTED • Lock the app with Face ID or your passcode. • Export password-protected, encrypted PDFs to share sensitive documents safely. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No cloud. Your scans never touch a server. • No account. No sign-up, no login, no profile. • No tracking. Zero analytics, zero ads, zero third-party SDKs. • No network. It works exactly the same in airplane mode. FREE TO START — UNLOCK ONCE Download free and try 3 scans on us (free exports carry a watermark). A single one-time purchase unlocks unlimited scanning, removes the watermark for good and opens every advanced export — OCR text export, password-encrypted PDFs and the ID-card layout. No subscription, no ads, no trial that quietly starts charging. EVERYTHING YOU NEED • Fast multi-page scanning with automatic edge detection and perspective correction. • Five looks: Original, Color, Grayscale, B&W, and Document enhance. • Reorder, rotate, delete, and add pages anytime. • Smart auto-naming from the document's contents. • ID Card mode: front and back on a single page. • Export PDFs sized to the image, A4, or US Letter — ready to print. • Save to Files, or share to Mail, AirDrop, or Messages. • Scan hands-free with Siri, Spotlight, Shortcuts, or the Action Button. • A calm, premium interface, designed down to the last detail. • Now available in 44 languages — auto-detected, or switch any time. Built for lawyers, accountants, freelancers, founders, students — anyone who scans something they'd rather not hand to someone else's server. Your documents stay on this device. That's the whole idea. Optimized for iPhone Duo.
