Clarion Transcribe is a voice recorder built around one promise: it keeps recording until YOU decide to stop. Ordinary recorders can cut out at the worst moments — a Bluetooth mic drops, the audio route changes, or a stray tap ends the take. Clarion Transcribe is engineered so that doesn't happen. WON'T STOP BY ACCIDENT • Stopping requires pressing Stop three times within two seconds. A single accidental touch can't end your recording. • Bluetooth dropouts, headphone unplugging, and audio route changes never stop a recording — it automatically continues on the next available mic. • Phone-call interruptions pause and resume into the same file. • Records with the screen locked. RECORD YOUR WAY • Choose your microphone before recording — then it's locked so nothing switches it mid-take. • File formats: AAC, Apple Lossless, or WAV. • Quality presets from compact to studio-grade. ON-DEVICE TRANSCRIPTS • Turn recordings into text right on your device — nothing is uploaded. • Choose the Whisper engine with selectable model sizes for the accuracy you need, or Apple's on-device speech recognition. • Automatic transcription after each recording, or transcribe on demand. AI SUMMARIES — ALSO ON-DEVICE • Turn any transcript into a summary: a concise paragraph, bullet points, or a detailed write-up. • On iPhones with Apple Intelligence, summaries are written by Apple's on-device model. Nothing is sent to any server. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no cloud, no tracking, no ads. • Your audio and transcripts stay on your device unless you share them. Record with confidence and follow all applicable laws in your area. Clarion Transcribe. SUBSCRIPTION Clarion Transcribe is free to download and starts with a 3-day free trial. After the trial, continued access to recording, transcription and summaries requires a subscription: $1.99 per month, or $15 per year. • Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. • The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. • Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. • Manage or cancel your subscription any time in your Apple Account settings.
