TalkMemo
Read full descriptionHide full description
Speak while the thought is fresh. Find it when you need it. TalkMemo turns voice notes into organised memos and helps you manage tasks and dated items. Choose Korean or English in Settings. PERSONALISATION THAT REFLECTS YOUR CORRECTIONS Start with useful default categories and keywords. If a memo belongs somewhere else, move it to the right category. TalkMemo remembers the expressions and categories you correct and uses them in later classification. Repeated title corrections can also become text-correction rules. Store up to 20,000 personal classification rules. Learning does not stop at the limit: new corrections are applied while less-confirmed, older rules are retired. This is not a limit on saved memos. Review, edit or remove learned patterns and pronunciation corrections in Settings. YOUR CATEGORIES AND KEYWORDS Create categories for your work, shopping, ideas or personal projects. Add the words you use most often to help classification. A dated action may be treated as a task; say the destination category explicitly or choose it on the save screen when you want a particular folder. DATES AND REMINDERS Try 'Add dentist tomorrow at 3 pm to my calendar', then check the recognised date. TalkMemo distinguishes alarms from ordinary notifications and asks you to check invalid or ambiguous dates. Reminder delivery depends on device support and permissions. An ordinary notification may be used when an alarm is unavailable. Sync to Apple Calendar manually from the calendar screen when you choose. QUICK CAPTURE AND EDITING ⢠Capture, Quick View, Calendar and Library views ⢠Search, edit titles, change categories and mark items complete ⢠Quick capture with Siri ⢠Voice capture on Apple Watch with transfer to iPhone ⢠A detailed in-app guide in Korean and English GETTING STARTED Names, accents and background noise can affect early results. Personalisation adapts to the categories and expressions you correct; it does not retrain Apple's speech recognition model or remove every recognition error. Check important content and dates, and correct anything that is wrong. Personal rules are stored on your device. Speech-to-text may use Apple servers depending on your device and connection, so recognition is not always offline. Korean and English are selected separately.

Just write it. ntoday takes it from there. Throw whatever's in your head at it, however messy. The next morning it puts back just the parts you need to hold on to. It doesn't tell you to get organised. It keeps things organised for you. ā Writing takes no thought One line goes to three places at once ā today's list, your appointments, and search. Hold ļ¼ and speak. You get the transcript and the original recording, kept together. Photos go in as they are. ā It brings things back before you go "oh ā right" Writing it down and never looking again is the real problem. So it looks for you. Ā· 7:30 in the morning ā only what's left over and what's due today. Nothing due, nothing rings Ā· 8:00 at night ā the unfinished ones, once, quietly Ā· Tick things off from a widget or your Apple Watch without opening the app ā What you wrote sorts itself To-dos, appointments, where you put it, shopping, things that repeat. No boxes to set up. Writing is enough. If something lands in the wrong box, one tap on "not this" takes it out ā and it remembers the shape. ā One word pulls it back out Type "dentist" and everything you wrote about the dentist comes back on a single sheet. When it was, what it cost, what they told you. ā When something repeats, it gets a crayon mark Write "sick again" across a few days and circles appear on a calendar. It isn't a feature you switch on. The notes become the tracker by themselves. Export it as one page to show a doctor or a vet. ā All of it on this device There is no server. There never will be. What you write does not leave the phone. No account, no sign-in. iCloud sync is off until you turn it on, and even then it only goes to your own private iCloud. Codes and passwords you jot down are hidden from summaries, previews, widgets and the lock screen. ā ntoday Plus ā buy once, keep it Four more boxes (money, people, codes, scraps), iCloud sync, three months of tracker history with its widget, and three paper colours. Not a subscription. No ads. The free app has no limit on how much you write, and search, the morning and evening nudges, widgets, Apple Watch, export and the archive are **always free**. Built for people who write things down and forget them. English Ā· ķźµģ“ Ā· ę„ę¬čŖ

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TalkMemo at none against ntoday's 1. TalkMemo also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
