I’m a paying Cleft subscriber and the recent updates have introduced numerous bugs to iOS 18. It will attempt to start a recording automatically and then tell me it needs to be at least three word. When I attempt to view it and back out, the whole interface turns white and I have to force quit the app. I also can’t reliably get my audio to sync. And every time the app opens it shows me the most recent update patch notes.

This app changed the way I interact with media, my thoughts, and my notes. I use it daily to capture ideas while I’m driving and listening to podcasts or audio books. I use it as I prepare for projects as I talk through what the goals and steps are. I use it as I start interact with my whiteboards, notes, and information sources. And the best part? It makes sense of the stream of thoughts that come out of my brain! It organizes them, focuses them, makes to-dos, lists, and summaries. All in a format I can easily share or edit (And edit again with my voice or the old fashioned way). As the title says, Cleft is game-changing - maybe life-changing! I’ve been using the app since it was in beta and I also pay for the annual subscription. I would argue that I’m Cleft’s biggest fan! It may be the best app I have on my phone, my iPad, and my MacBook! I can’t recommend it enough! If you are at all curious - go give it a shot. You won’t be disappointed!

I can’t recommend this app enough! It has been a total game-changer for staying organized and managing my busy life. As a full-time student, a parent of five, and someone preparing for the next phase of my career, this app has provided exactly what I need to keep everything in order.The features are intuitive and reliable, and I love how seamlessly it works across devices. The support team is also outstanding—they went above and beyond to help me resolve an account issue quickly and kindly.This app has not only made my daily tasks easier but has also given me a tool I can truly rely on. I’m actually excited for classes to start again, knowing I’ll be more prepared and productive with this app. Highly recommend it!

Using this app has completely changed how I interact with my notes. I can simply speak my mind, and it formats everything just the way I intended it. I’ve always struggled with note-taking because I overthink everything but this app has completely solved that.It works so well, I find myself reaching for my phone more often to capture these moments. This has led to a boost in my creativity and has made me more active with my note-taking; something I've been wanting to achieve for a really long time.I actually created with review using Cleft!

Update: Since my initial review, I’ve been in touch with tech support who had been great! They corrected my issues & have no issues. Good app! Earlier Review:Keeps telling me I need to manually sync. I end up loosing what I’ve recorded & having to re-record my memos hoping that I don’t get this message. Incredibly frustrating! Msged tech support but didn’t get much help there. I would like a prorated refund.

Being in and out of meetings it’s hard to keep track of my meeting notes and what was exactly said during those meetings. This app has helped tremendously with keeping my notes clean and even giving me the audio recording to back track on. This app is well designed and will make your note taking to the next level!
