Just talk. Spiel turns it into a clean note - a title, a short summary, the main points, and a to-do list you can tick off. It all happens on your phone. Nothing is uploaded. No account. No subscription. WHO SAID WHAT Record a meeting, or bring in one you already have, and Spiel marks who said what - right on your phone. Rename "Speaker 1" to a real name and the summary uses it. No other iPhone app does this without sending your audio away. ASK YOUR NOTES "What did Tomas say about the rent?" Spiel answers from your own notes and tells you which one. Works with no signal too. WHAT ELSE IT DOES - Record as long as you need - even hour-long meetings get a full summary (Pro) - Open audio you already have - voice memos, interviews, lectures (Pro) - Understands 40+ languages, writes summaries in 15+ - Note styles for how you work - meeting notes, standup, 1:1, session notes, journal, ideas, to-do lists. Make your own too (Pro) - Long recording? A timeline breaks it into short chunks so it's easy to read (Pro) - Deleted by mistake? You have 30 days to get it back (Pro) - To-dos with dates can go to Reminders or Calendar - Search everything you've ever said - Heard a word wrong? Fix it, and the note sorts itself again - Start from the Lock Screen, Control Center, or the Action Button - Share a note as text, a PDF, or a nice card - or send them all at once Spiel writes down and sorts what was said. It's not medical, legal, or professional advice, and not a stand-in for your own judgment - check anything important against the transcript. If you're a clinician or a lawyer, your records are still yours. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE The transcription and the AI run on your iPhone's own chip. The audio is thrown away unless you keep it - and then it stays on the phone. No account. No servers. No tracking. PAY ONCE Spiel is free to try. Pro is a single purchase - no subscription, nothing to cancel. WHAT YOU NEED iPhone 15 Pro or newer, iOS 26, Apple Intelligence on. Bought Spiel 1.0? Pro is yours free - thanks for being early.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Spiel at Free against ChronoCap's $0.99. ChronoCap's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
