You're walking and ideas start coming. Stop and type each one? That's annoying. Keep walking and hope you remember? Good luck with that.
Memo fixes this. Hit record, talk, keep moving. The app handles the rest—transcription, formatting, even pulling out the important bits. No typing, no lost thoughts.
WORKS EVERYWHERE
Walking to work? Record. In a meeting? Put your phone on the table. At the doctor? Keep it in your pocket. Memo runs in the background and catches everything. You just talk.
ACTUALLY UNDERSTANDS YOU
The transcription is scary good. 12+ languages, and you can add your own words—client names, medical terms, that weird project acronym nobody can spell. It learns.
TURNS RAMBLING INTO REAL NOTES
Here's where it gets interesting. You talk for 20 minutes about three different things. Memo figures out what matters:
• The key points (not everything you said)
• Action items and deadlines
• Important dates you mentioned
• Formatted in clean markdown
CHAT WITH YOUR NOTES
"What did I say about the marketing budget?" Just ask. Memo searches your recordings, finds connections between notes, can even look things up online. The more you use it, the more context it has.
MAKE IT YOURS
Tell the AI how you like your notes. Short bullet points? Detailed summaries? Focus on action items? Set it once, or change it per recording. Your call.
ABOUT PRIVACY
Notes stay on your phone. Audio gets deleted after transcription (we don't want it either). Only the AI processing touches the cloud. We're not building a data business here.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
• One-tap recording, works in background
• Transcription in 12+ languages
• Custom dictionary for tricky words
• Auto-formatting and structure
• Action items synced to Reminders
• AI chat that actually remembers
• Search that understands meaning, not just keywords
• Export to Markdown, PDF, NotePlan
• Offline mode when you need it
PEOPLE USE THIS FOR
• Quick thoughts on the go
• Meeting notes (finally, good ones)
• Lectures and classes
• Interviews and research
• Doctor appointments (so you don't forget what they said)
• Lawyer and accountant meetings
• Therapy sessions
• Journaling without the typing
Try it. Your future self will thank you.

I was already an avid Wispr Memos user. I just figured this would be just like Wispr Memos but would plug into Note Plan, which I was trying to use anyway.The first test run was hitting the record button while at the eye doctor with my wife, and then I forgot about the recording and went to go back and look at it later. I was blown away. I'm still trying to figure out how exactly to make it work with Note Plan, but as far as a dictation and action plan program, this app is amazing. I will gladly pay the $50 every year and will never unsubscribe. Within the first month of downloading it, they already added watch support and CarPlay support. This developer is outstanding.

When the folks behind NotePlan announced they were coming out with a Voice Notes Taker app, I jumped on board. I have some long commute times and I do a lot of thinking in the car. With the integration with Apple CarPlay, it’s so easy to think out loud about projects or ideas and this app doesn’t miss anything. The summaries are amazing and are easily exported into NotePlan (my second brain). The interface is easy to use and with regular updates, it just gets better and better. This app is an absolute necessity for me.

Just like NotePlan, this app is a well thought out, clean and a thoughtful implementation. I'm a big fan of NotePlan and you can tell it's from the same developer. Just like NotePlan, I'm sure there will be more iterations and it will keep getting better and better and most importantly, Eduard really listens to his users, and is super responsive. Many thanks.🙏

Wonderful for NotePlan users

As a longtime user of NotePlan, this tool is wonderful to capture “what comes to mind” in the moment, and as such, has become my inbox tool of choice to catch all my ideas, tasks, and (random) errands in a way where I can easily retrieve and process them. Well done, Eduard!

Many thanks for your review! Interesting use case!

- Speakers: change the speaker of one segment, fix many segments at once, or rename a speaker in all segments.
- Settings › Speakers: see all the people you named. Change their color, merge them, or delete them.
- "Detect Speakers Again": tell Memo how many people spoke.
- Memo recognizes speakers that you named before, also on your other devices.
- Plain Language: a new setting that writes summaries in short, simple sentences.
- Action items: set a date, change the date, or delete an item.
- Change the date of a memo.
- Color style: select "Subtle" for neutral backgrounds.
- NotePlan export: export action items as tasks, checklists, or bullets. Each note links back to the original memo.
