01 — Transcript · Listen and edit
Keep your audio and words together.
No switching between a player and a note. Play, read, edit and save in the transcript workspace.
Know which paragraph is playing
The current paragraph is marked. Scrolling or editing pauses following; return to the playback position when ready.
Room to make it right
Use the expanded text editor to correct your transcript while listening. Explicitly save your changes when finished.
Keep the original
The original transcript and your edited version are preserved for reference.
02 — How it works
From a recording to a transcript you can use.
Keep the source in view. You choose when to start and what to keep.
Start transcription
The source is saved first. You start transcription; the first use prompts you to download the speech model.
Listen, edit and save
Follow the current paragraph, correct the text while listening, and save when ready.
Revisit source highlights
AI selects original passages, with playback timestamps so you can check them again.
03 — Source highlights · Jump back to audioTranscript guide
Highlights you can check against the source.
AI picks passages worth revisiting and quotes the transcript directly, with playback timestamps. Recognition errors still need checking; the highlights preserve source wording.
Save in recordings first. Add to your knowledge base when ready.
Audio, transcripts and highlights stay in the local recordings workspace. Only your explicit choice adds them to the knowledge base. Chat and recordings remain separate.
04 — Local & private
Your audio stays on your iPhone.
Transcription and highlight selection run on your device. Audio and transcripts are not uploaded to a cloud AI for processing.
Local first
The initial model download needs a connection. Once the models are ready, transcribe and organize highlights offline. External links, web search and App Store purchases still need internet access.
- No account required
- Audio and transcripts stored on device
- Original and edited transcripts preserved
- You choose what enters the knowledge base
Beyond recording

Meetings & interviews
Listen back, correct names and terms, and revisit important passages through source highlights.
Classes & ideas
Turn recordings into readable text you can review and listen to again.
Your knowledge base
Add material after reviewing it, search saved content and return to its source.
Separate chat
Keep conversations and shared links in chat, alongside the knowledge you have saved.

FAQ
Questions
Can I edit a transcript while listening?
Yes. Play the recording in the transcript view, edit the text and save when finished. The current paragraph is marked. Editing or manual scrolling pauses following; you can return to the playback position. The original transcript is preserved.
Where does a shared audio file go?
Audio goes directly to the recordings/transcripts tab. The file is saved first, and you explicitly start transcription. It does not create a chat conversation. Shared links still open in chat preview.
Are recordings automatically added to the knowledge base?
No. Completed recordings, transcripts and source highlights stay in recordings. They enter the knowledge base only when you choose to add them. The recording workspace retains its copy.
Can I use it offline?
Download the required models while connected first. Once ready, you can transcribe, select highlights and read saved content offline on your device. External links, web search and App Store purchases require a connection.
What is included for free?
The free plan includes 10 chats per day, 5 successful text or voice translations per day, and transcription of audio files up to 10 minutes each. Active Pro removes those paid limits; device and source constraints still apply.
Does Pro renew automatically?
No. Taiwan App Store pricing is NT$90 for one calendar month or NT$990 for one year. You choose whether to purchase again when it expires. Prices and availability depend on your local App Store. Existing lifetime buyers and eligible early paid users retain their entitlements.
