Vocapa is my answer to a simple problem: thoughts arrive faster than I can type them, and voice memos pile up unheard. So I built a voice inbox. Push to record, speak, done. Vocapa transcribes the recording on your device, then uses on-device Apple Intelligence to give the note a title, a summary, tags, and — if you mentioned things to do — a task list. What was a raw recording becomes a note you can actually use. And because an inbox is not an archive, every note is meant to move on: share it to your task manager, your notes app, your messages — wherever it truly belongs — and archive it. Vocapa keeps the inbox empty, not full. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE Everything runs on your iPhone or iPad. Transcription and enrichment happen on-device; the app makes no network connections of its own and works completely in Airplane Mode. No account, no sign-up, no analytics, no tracking. Your voice never leaves your hands. If you want more, you can optionally bring your own API key for cloud transcription or enrichment. That is strictly opt-in, per provider, with your key stored in the system Keychain — and it stays off unless you turn it on. YOUR NOTES ARE FILES, NOT HOSTAGES Every note is a plain Markdown file with its audio recording alongside it, stored in a local vault on your device. The format is Obsidian-compatible: open your vault in any Markdown editor and everything is simply there. No export step, no proprietary database, no lock-in. If you delete Vocapa tomorrow, your notes are still yours. WHAT VOCAPA DOES • Push-to-record capture — from the app or the widget • On-device transcription and enrichment: title, summary, tags, tasks • Correct and refine results before you share them • Share sheet forwarding to any app, then archive • Search across all notes • Obsidian-compatible Markdown + audio, stored locally • Full support for iPhone and iPad LANGUAGES Recording works in German and English, with 7 more languages available in Preview. The interface is available in 9 languages. FAIR PRICING, NO SUBSCRIPTION Vocapa is free to download with every feature unlocked for 30 days. After that, a single lifetime purchase unlocks it forever — no subscription, no recurring charges, no free-tier tricks. If you decide not to buy, your existing notes remain readable and yours. Vocapa is built and maintained by one person: me. If something doesn't work, my support email is in the app, and I read every message. Requires iOS 26 or later. On-device intelligence requires a device that supports Apple Intelligence.
