This app has significantly improved my quality of life. I use Wave to summarize meetings for work, volunteer meetings, lessons I teach (violin/voice), rehearsals, lectures, and even medical discussions. Wave summarizes everything, turns it into plain English that anyone can understand, and separates all the topics with important points, notes, and action items. It also allows me to send recordings (from any time) and import them for the same treatment — recording in the app isn’t required. Wave recognizes voices so you can view a complete transcript later, and you can name the speakers to make reviewing the meeting easy. If there are a lot of speakers, there is sometimes confusion between the voices, but it has never negatively impacted the note summaries (which are the main product). Additionally, you can edit the summaries entirely for accuracy before exporting, and you can export to SO MANY formats, including PDF summaries that look professional enough to share, straight out of the app. On top of all this, I had a minor issue after an Apple update that changed how a feature worked, and the developer responded promptly and perfected the app very quickly. I’ve tried more than a dozen AI notes apps online because as an autistic adult and educator, it is a life-changing enhancement for me, as I would spend countless hours completing the same task on my own.
I’m just gonna come right out and say it, I am a horrible note taker. The bad part about this is I have a job we’re all I have to do is take notes so that I can fill out reports. I will go to meetings and try to take notes but when I wrote the notes, I didn’t hear what they said, while I was writing a note.I was on Facebook and found this app. I downloaded the app and I used it, and I was amazed at how well it took notes. I was also amazed at how many things I had missed while in the meeting, oh yeah, did I mention I have ADHD. Wave took down the people names, and somehow they were able to tell who is who when they spoke and they would put down the person name and 98 times out of 100 they were correct. don’t forget to read over what they put down because sometimes they do get the names wrong. If you get the free version they only give you 30 minutes a week. No I’m sorry that’s not right 30 minutes a month trust and believe when I say you’re not gonna be able to take down all your notes and 30 minutes so I said go ahead and buy the application. It is well worth it.
I’d been looking for a couple of years for a note taking app that does what I want. It was exciting a few months ago when Notability added transcription to their audio recording feature. But the transcriptions, while very accurate, were only made available in paragraph chunks. And there was no summary.Then I recently spotted Wave AI Note Taker. Perfect for my needs. Business meetings, doctor appointments, sermons, etc. Thank you so much for what you've created. I know that the early days involve a lot of bug fixes, and I see that you’re updating the app very frequently. Thanks for that too.For the first couple of days after I started using your app, I had trouble getting to sleep, because I was thinking of all the different ways I could use it. In some settings, it can be a little intimidating for the person I’m meeting with to realize that I’m recording the meeting. So I typically just use Voice Memos on my Apple Watch to do the initial recording. After the meeting, I share the audio file over to Wave for the transcript and summary.Anyhow, I could go on and on. I just really appreciate your app. Great job!!!
Wow…this is a magical app! I work with an offshore IT team and sometimes the English accents are tough to understand. Wave knows exactly what they are saying and summarizes every discussion succinctly. The AI summaries also capture key points I may have missed or interpreted incorrectly so it serves as a second level review after each meeting is completed. I jumped on subscribing after the first recording since I can no longer function without it. It was worth every penny! Also, it’s already saved me twice in two days. I can now focus on the conversation instead of the distraction of scribing notes I often can’t interpret later. I honestly don’t know how I functioned without it.
It soo good and I am loving it. I tried it for 2 of my design sessions as tech lead I am usually engrossed in driving the design session and have a hard time multitasking to capture all notes. And even if we ask team members to take notes junior members are not that involved in the discussion so they don’t take good notes and dont summarize them very well but I was simply fascinated by how Wave did capture all notes from the last two very complex design sessions and it very neatly clearly succinctly gave me a summary with next steps in the way it organized the notes was fantastic I’m just so tempted to become paid user and take the subscription. Great job guys!!
I don’t do app reviews, but this one is legit. It isn’t perfect, but I’d say it’s 4.75/5. Just turn it on and let it record your meeting - from a different device if you want to - you don’t have to ‘invite the AI as an attendee’ to your meeting. It intuitively determines the speaker’s name over the course of the call, you can customize the summary, export the summaries and transcripts, and it has a built in AI Chat so you can ask it questions about the meeting. It’s so great to ask it “what did John say about Jira ticket 321?” and it tells you. Again, it isn’t perfect, it still has some ‘new app quirks’ but overall I’m very happy.
I just started using this app. The quality of notes that it takes and transcribes is fantastic. I used it to record a home building tv show that I was watching. It clearly summarized and organized notes of the entire episode in great detail. I wish it could process the notes in real time so I can also see it at work. It can take awhile after the recording to transcribe the data into notes depending on the length of the recording and your device. For a new app, this is super cool and I can’t wait to see where it goes!
Thank you for this feedback!
I absolutely have loved this app… and I still love this app, except that after getting the update today, and even though I stopped the recording because I was done it is still recording. And there’s nothing that I can do about this because your little jellybean just keeps jumping up and down on a white background.. no buttons within the app to push and I’ve turned my phone off and I’ve turned it back on and it’s still in a recording mode… and I can’t request app help because of the little jellybean that keeps jumping up and down on a white background
I have recently begun utilizing the Wave AI note taker app, and it has significantly enhanced my productivity! The AI capabilities are truly remarkable, allowing for seamless organization and retrieval of my notes and recordings as needed.Moreover, I had an outstanding interaction with Josh, the app’s developer. He was exceptionally responsive to my inquiries and provided comprehensive assistance that greatly improved my overall experience. It’s evident that he genuinely prioritizes the needs of his users.I wholeheartedly recommend the Wave AI note taker app, and I extend my sincere gratitude to Josh for his timely and exemplary support!
Pretty impressed with this app so far. I’m using both the phone app and the mac desktop app. Used it for an hour long meeting with multiple participants, a phone call, and a quick conversation with my team on a project planning session. All were great. Used the podcast feature on the mac version and it did an excellent job. Perfect for listing to the podcast in the car, then getting the summary for key points. The mac app had an issue with Sequoia 15.1, but Josh fixed it asap. Well done.
