Whisper Memos - Speech to text +4

Appreciation and Suggestions for the Whisper AI iOS App

—-

Kudos:
First off, a huge thank you to the app developers for integrating Whisper AI into an iOS app notes system. It's commendable how Whisper's artificial intelligence LLM has been seamlessly adapted for a mobile-friendly user experience. This app is certainly a must-download for its innovation and utility.

Feedback on Duration:
The current transcription window is capped at 15 minutes, which, in my experience, is a tad limiting. Extending this duration would greatly enhance user convenience and application versatility.

Feature Suggestion:
An additional enhancement I'd recommend is the ability to transcribe external voice memos and recordings directly into the app. This functionality would provide significant value by allowing users to convert pre-existing audio files into text, bypassing the need to record voice notes directly through the app.

Closing Thoughts:
Aside from the points mentioned, the app truly stands out. Great job to everyone involved in its development. Your efforts are making a tangible difference, and I eagerly look forward to future updates. Keep up the excellent work!

Glad I saw this on the Six Colors blog. I have used a siri shortcut to email myself quick notes for years, but that was limited to only what would fit in the subject line. This app goes miles further! I do have two suggestions, though. First, not being able to take a note in my car through carplay is a big limiting factor. I will still have to use my old shortcut for that. I'd love to see better integration with shortcuts to allow note-taking while driving. Second, I'd like some customization of the email subject line. The auto-generated Whisper Memos text in brackets and two emoji take up needless space. I'd rather see more of my note there. Or better yet, get an AI-generated subject line that is relevant to my memo. Otherwise, great app! I'm subscribing right now!

UPDATE: Thanks for adding more control options to the subject line! Definitely makes it cleaner and allows more of the note to show in the subject line.

I have been using a popular and effective non-AI app to record and transcribe voice memos. I usually used a second app on my Mac to retranscribe with AI. It worked.

But then I demoed Whisper Memos. I tap the icon on my watch or lock screen, record the message, and the app takes care of the rest. It automatically emails the transcription to Drafts, where I can access it on all my devices. Drafts automatically adds a tag to keep the transcriptions separate from other Drafts files.

This is a big improvement over my previous process. With Whisper Memos, instead of waiting for an AI transcription every time, now the transcriptions are waiting for me. This app does exactly what I need.
