Choose Record to make a memo or Import to select audio from Files. If the app asks you to set up a transcription model, use Set up a transcription model and follow the steps in Settings. Choose your languages there. Some models need a download before they can run offline.

Open a saved recording and choose Transcript. Use Find in transcript to search for a word or phrase. Tap a passage linked to audio, or use the play button for a search match, to hear that part of the original recording. Use the share menu to export the transcript as plain text. Pro also offers a CSV with timestamps when available.

Open Cleanup on a finished recording. Choose whether to shorten long pauses, balance volume, or reduce background noise. A noise reduction model may need a first download. Free previews cover the first 10 seconds. With Pro you can clean the full recording, compare the original and cleaned audio, and export a cleaned WAV. The app keeps the original.

Your recordings keeps your audio and transcripts together. Search for a title, or search inside all saved transcripts with Pro. To remove a memo, open its menu and choose Delete recording. This removes the memo and copies in the app library. Manage any exported copies wherever you saved them.

Recording and importing are unlimited. Free includes 30 minutes of successful transcription per calendar month. If a memo exceeds your remaining time, its audio still saves. You can transcribe it later when the allowance resets or after upgrading. Pro also offers live text, more compatible models, library search, timed CSV exports, and full cleanup.
