Whisper Memos - Speech to text 4+

Glad I saw this on the Six Colors blog. I have used a siri shortcut to email myself quick notes for years, but that was limited to only what would fit in the subject line. This app goes miles further! I do have two suggestions, though. First, not being able to take a note in my car through carplay is a big limiting factor. I will still have to use my old shortcut for that. I'd love to see better integration with shortcuts to allow note-taking while driving. Second, I'd like some customization of the email subject line. The auto-generated Whisper Memos text in brackets and two emoji take up needless space. I'd rather see more of my note there. Or better yet, get an AI-generated subject line that is relevant to my memo. Otherwise, great app! I'm subscribing right now!

UPDATE: Thanks for adding more control options to the subject line! Definitely makes it cleaner and allows more of the note to show in the subject line.

I have been using a popular and effective non-AI app to record and transcribe voice memos. I usually used a second app on my Mac to retranscribe with AI. It worked.

But then I demoed Whisper Memos. I tap the icon on my watch or lock screen, record the message, and the app takes care of the rest. It automatically emails the transcription to Drafts, where I can access it on all my devices. Drafts automatically adds a tag to keep the transcriptions separate from other Drafts files.

This is a big improvement over my previous process. With Whisper Memos, instead of waiting for an AI transcription every time, now the transcriptions are waiting for me. This app does exactly what I need.

When I first downloaded whisper I was unsure how much I was going to use it. I was worried itd be one of those apps I open once and forget about. But, that was not the case. It has been a week and I've recorded nearly 50 memos. From items for my grocery list, things to do around the house, marketing campaigns for my startups, and more. It has been perhpas he most effective way for me to capture the millions of things that pass through my head everyday in a quick and efficent manner. It is barebones which is perfect, no need to overcomplicate it. For someone like me that is always on the road, traveling and just generally busy whisper fits in perfectly with my needs.
