Super clean setup on iOS! Can’t wait to try it out, the concept is lovely. I use notion a TON but it’s not great for the most immediate time sensitive notes. Do you think you could integrate google calendar / reminders in some way? A lot of the kind of notes I would record on this kind of app have some form of either deadline, or are only relevant after a certain date or time. For example, “check in on this thread Mo…

I'm less bullish on specific deadlines for these kinds of notes. I'm planning to do a weekly summary notification - "you made X notes last week, Y of them were high-priority" https://github.com/maxkrieger/voiceliner/issues/20

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Android has on-device transcription for some devices (e.g. Pixel 5 and above). Maybe you could use that instead of charging?

EDIT: If you feel strongly about this and think it's possible please send in PRs. Thanks! Unfortunately you then lose ability to play back the original audio https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2319735/voice-recognitio... . This is a major usability tradeoff IMO, though I'm willing to be swayed to add an option. I suspect Google's limiting this because they don't want devices "freeloading" their cloud transcription s…

The link you posted is a 7 year old question; is the information still relevant? Surely copying the original audio is enough of a workaround?

Not a mobile dev so could be wrong.

If this had automagical sorting / hierarchy of my recordings based on key words, or allowed me to "shuffle" my entire collection of recordings according to a few pre-set algorithms, this would be interesting.

Example: I spend 5 weeks recording 200 sound bites about real estate development in PR. I do no organization. I click a button in the app marked "Organize by opportunity". It sorts my recordings into 4 folders with 2-3 nested with titles like "The Tulum project" and "Evan's group".

I don't particularly need transcription because I don't want to do any of the work implementing the feature I just described ...

As it is, it looks neat but I'll stick with iOS built-in recorder.

I’ll give you some examples of some legitimate notes/reminders I’d take:

- check this thing that opens tomorrow at 6pm

- talk to the lawyers about x before friday

- Fill in my PLF some time tomorrow so it’s ready for my trip

Etc.
