Clearminutes: AI Meeting Notes
Private offline transcription
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Clearminutes is a private meeting recorder that transcribes and summarizes on your iPhone. No cloud upload and no meeting bot.
Record any meeting, lecture, or voice note. Everything runs on-device: transcription with on-device neural models, AI summaries with key decisions and action items, and playback with full-text search. Your audio never leaves your phone unless you choose to send it straight to your Mac or Windows PC.
Don't let big-tech use or sell your data. Clearminutes adds no telemetry and requires no account. Privacy is a requirement, not a feature.

• Record in the foreground, background, Lock Screen, and Dynamic Island - recording continues when you lock your phone

PRIVACY

• On-device summaries use Apple Foundation Models - no cloud AI
• The optional computer transfer uses an encrypted peer-to-peer link; relay servers cannot read your content

Crash reporting now asks your consent before sending anything, so problems get fixed faster.
Failed transcriptions, model downloads, and purchases now say what went wrong instead of failing silently.
Small polish to the record screen buttons.
