Transkriptuesi turns conversations, meetings, lectures and voice notes into accurate text — right on your iPhone, in 26 languages. 26 languages, all recognised automatically: Albanian · English · Italian · German · French · Spanish · Portuguese · Dutch · Polish · Romanian · Russian · Ukrainian · Greek · Bulgarian · Croatian · Czech · Danish · Estonian · Finnish · Hungarian · Latvian · Lithuanian · Maltese · Slovak · Slovenian · Swedish PRIVATE BY DESIGN, WORKS OFFLINE Transcription happens entirely on your device. Your recordings never go to a server — no internet needed, no cloud, no tracking. RECORD YOUR WAY Pause and resume, flag the moments that matter, and keep an eye on the take from the lock screen or the Dynamic Island. Start a recording from the Action button, Siri or a Shortcut. WHO SAID WHAT Speakers are separated and labelled automatically. Rename them, merge two that are really one, tap any word to jump to that moment, and follow along with word-by-word highlighting during playback. EDIT AND ORGANISE Fix a word with a double tap, edit or delete whole blocks, merge several recordings into one, and pin, sort and filter your library. Every recording is searchable from Spotlight. IMPORT ANYTHING Bring in audio or video from Files or Photos, or share it straight into Transkriptuesi from any app, and get a transcript with synced captions — even for recordings made years ago. AI ASSISTANT (PRO) • Live assistant while you record: choose a role — advisor, meeting, interview, sales, fact-check, translator, lecture — or write your own, and it reads along and steps in with advice, questions and flags • Structured summaries: key points, decisions, tasks and quotes, tailored to the kind of recording • Full reports exported as PDF, with the complete transcript at the bottom • Translation of the whole transcript into any of 25 languages • Ask anything about a recording — typed or spoken — and get answers with timestamps • Your own saved prompts and standing instructions, and one-tap copy of every answer The AI reads only the text you choose to send; the recording itself stays on your phone. EXPORT, SHARE, BACK UP Plain text, timestamped text, SRT subtitles, a clean PDF or the audio itself — in one tap. Keep an encrypted backup of everything and restore it on a new phone. THE APP, IN YOUR LANGUAGE The interface is available in Albanian, English and Italian. 2 HOURS FREE Every account starts with two free hours of transcription. Transkriptuesi Pro removes the limit and unlocks the AI Assistant — monthly or yearly, cancelled any time in your Apple ID settings. Made by Klerku — because Albanian rarely gets a seat in big technology, and this app exists to change that.
