OffgridScribe turns your voice into accurate, ready-to-share notes – entirely on your device. No cloud. No uploads. No exceptions. Built for journalists, researchers, lawyers, clinicians and anyone who conducts interviews and needs a fast, reliable way to turn speech into text, without the confidentiality risk of cloud transcription. Sources speak more freely when they know the recording stays private. HOW IT WORKS • Record in the app, or import existing audio and video • On-device transcription in 12 languages, including Cantonese – nothing ever leaves your phone • Speakers are labeled automatically, or tag them live while you record, so transcripts come out attributed rather than as one wall of text • Get a full transcript in minutes, even for long recordings • Keep recording with the screen locked; calls pause the recording and it resumes afterwards • Start a recording from the Lock Screen, Control Center, Siri or the Action Button BUILT FOR YOUR WORKFLOW • Summary templates turn a long interview into a quick brief: general summaries, SOAP notes, client interviews and therapy session notes, or write your own • Ask questions about a note and pull out action items • Translate summaries and transcripts without uploading anything • Tap any line to jump straight to that moment in the recording and check a quote in seconds • Edit transcripts and rename speakers in the app • Export to PDF, Word (RTF) or plain text, with optional redaction of names, phone numbers and other personal details • Add your own glossary of names, places and specialist terms • Tag notes by client or case, and search every past interview instantly ONE-TIME PURCHASE No subscription. Try Premium features for free, then unlock Premium once and keep it for good. PRIVACY BY DESIGN OffgridScribe never uploads your recordings or transcripts anywhere – not to us, not to anyone. Every step happens locally on your device. Lock the app with Face ID, and back up your notes to a password-encrypted file that you control. Your sources' confidentiality stays exactly where it belongs: with you. REQUIREMENTS AI summaries, questions and action items use Apple Intelligence and need a compatible device (iPhone 15 Pro or later) with Apple Intelligence turned on. Transcription works on all supported devices. OffgridScribe is a productivity tool to help you capture and organize spoken notes. It does not verify the accuracy of anything it transcribes and is not a substitute for your own professional or editorial judgment.
