Playbacks has completely transformed my work from home experience. I’m able to conveniently get quick notes on all of the meetings so I can focus on important things! And being able to listen to them after is very helpful as well I wish I had this in college

Alright, but not worth the price

It’s a good app. Clean, easy to navigate, pretty accurate in its transcriptions. But 140 a year is, in my opinion, definitely not worth the price. You can have the exact same functionality by using any regular voice recording app, and loading it into NotebookLM (Google). Same level of transcription, same chat functionality and summary. Completely for free. If the app was maybe 5 dollars a month it could justify the convenience of having it directly on the phone, but at the moment it’s just not worth it with other free alternatives.

I have to wear a lot of hats in my career, so Playbacks has seriously leveled up & streamline my admin work! Since it can transcript and give really detailed notes about my calls, I’m more on top of my deliverables, more attentive during the actual meetings, and have less busy work on my plate. 10/10!!

Used it in therapy and it helped a lot

I started using this to record my therapy sessions (with permission) so I could reflect more after. Being able to read the transcript later and see what I actually said or what my therapist pointed out has been weirdly helpful.

Hi Playbacks family! We've been listening, building, and refining - and this update brings two things you've been asking for. Here's what's new. 1. YouTube Uploads Paste a YouTube link and let Playbacks do the rest. Instantly get a transcript, summary, and insights from any video - then chat with the AI to dig even deeper. 2. Smarter Tagging Organizing your notes just got a whole lot easier. Tagging is now more intuitive, so finding what you need is faster than ever. As always, we're building Playbacks for you - so if you have feedback or something you'd love to see next, we'd love to hear it. Leave us a review or reach out anytime. Enjoy the update!
