Private Voice Inbox
Record. Transcribe. Organize.
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone
New in 1.3: Conversation mode with speaker chat, threads that mix memo types, photo attachments, and clearer memo zoom. Still private on-device transcription, no account.
Stop losing ideas in a pile of "New Recording 47" files.
Voice Inbox is the voice memo app built for finding—not just recording. Capture fast, get a searchable transcript and smart title, then clear your inbox like email.
RECORD ANYWHERE
• Record from the app, Lock Screen widget, or Siri Shortcut
• Three capture modes: Memo, Brainstorm, and Conversation (Premium)
• Apple Watch companion — capture on your wrist; transcription runs on your iPhone
• Pause and resume; up to 10 minutes per take
• Continue a memo with another segment, or expand into a thread with a new sibling
• Import audio files into your inbox
SEARCHABLE IN SECONDS
• On-device Whisper transcription (default) — your recordings stay on your iPhone
• Optional external speech service — bring your own OpenAI-compatible endpoint in Settings (only when you turn it on)
• AI-generated titles (Apple Intelligence on supported devices, or your own OpenAI/Ollama profile)
• Full-text search across titles and transcripts
• Change a memo’s language and retranscribe with one tap
INBOX ZERO FOR YOUR VOICE
• New memos land in Inbox; filter Inbox, All, or Archived
• Review today’s memos in one pass — keep, archive, or delete
• Optional evening reminder to clear the inbox before bed
• Trash with restore
THREADS & CONVERSATIONS
• Group related memos into threads; mix memo, brainstorm, and conversation members
• Conversation transcripts show speaker chat bubbles; plain memos stay linear
• Photo attachments on memos; shared gallery on threads
TAGS, SWIPES & FOLLOW-UPS
• Say “hash tag” plus keywords at the end of a memo, or add colored tags from a searchable picker
• Configurable swipe actions: Reminder, Email, Message, Calendar, Copy, Share, and more
• Swipe to schedule Apple Reminders; send transcript by email or message
AI WHEN YOU WANT IT
• Summarize, improve formatting, or extract action items — on demand from memo detail
• Optional auto-classify and auto-enrich after transcription (Premium)
• Connect your own LLM profiles or use Apple Intelligence; prompts are editable in Settings
INTEGRATIONS (PREMIUM)
• Create GitHub issues from a memo — transcript sent only when you confirm
• Voice Inbox Premium (optional): monthly, yearly, or lifetime — Conversation mode, auto-classify, category enrichment, GitHub; core capture, search, brainstorm, threads, and on-device transcription stay free
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No Voice Inbox account; memos stored on your device
• Optional app lock — Face ID, Touch ID, device passcode, or custom PIN
• Whisper model weights may download over Wi‑Fi; your voice memos are not uploaded to Voice Inbox servers
• AI and GitHub features send text only to services you configure, when you use them
PERFECT FOR
• Founders and PMs capturing ideas on walks
• Anyone drowning in untitled voice memos
• People who want searchable voice notes with a real inbox workflow
Requirements: iPhone with iOS 17 or later. Apple Watch app optional (requires paired iPhone).

Voice Inbox 1.3 — capture how you think
• Conversation mode (Premium) — multi-speaker capture with chat-style transcripts
• Threads — group related memos; mixed types keep their own shape (linear or bubbles)
• Continue vs expand — add another take to the same memo, or start a sibling in a thread
• Photo attachments on memos and thread galleries
• Memo zoom polish — clearer Transcript / Summary toolbars and playback
• Full user guide on myvoiceinbox.app
Still free for core capture, on-device Whisper, search, and inbox review. Premium unlocks Conversation, smart inbox automation, and GitHub.
