iPhone + Android memos · punctuated text · works from the phone

Voice memo to text straight from your phone.

The idea you dictated walking to the station, the two-hour interview you recorded on a table, the lecture you saved and never played back. Drop the memo — it transcribes from the phone browser, no app to install.

What you get

Recordings you can finally search.

M4A without converting

iPhone Voice Memos save as .m4a, which is exactly the format most free converters reject. Send it as-is — along with MP3, WAV, AAC, or anything else your recorder produced.

Findable a year later

A voice memo is unsearchable by definition: to know what's in it you have to play it. Once it's text you can search a year of recordings in a second and jump straight to the sentence you half-remember.

Readable, not just accurate

Dictation runs long and unstructured. Transcripts come back with punctuation and paragraph breaks, so a rambling ten-minute memo reads as prose you can edit rather than one enormous sentence.

Works from the phone

No app to install and no desktop round-trip. Open the page in Safari or Chrome on the phone, pick the memo from the share sheet, and read the transcript on the same screen.

Phone dictation vs a real transcript

Live dictation vs transcribing the recording.

✗ Your phone's live dictation

Great for a text message. It degrades quickly on anything longer, and it can't work on a recording you already made.

  • Times out on long dictation
  • Little punctuation, no paragraphs
  • One speaker only
  • Can't process an existing file
  • No timestamps to jump back to

✓ Transcribing the memo

Runs on the file itself, after the fact, with the structure that makes it readable.

  • Hours-long memos are ordinary
  • Punctuated, paragraphed prose
  • Speaker labels when there are two
  • Works on memos from any date
  • Word-level timing to jump back

SPEAKER 1 00:00:02 Note to self before I forget the shape of this. The onboarding problem isn't the form — it's that we ask for the hardest field first.
SPEAKER 1 00:00:14 If we move the workspace name to the end, everything before it is answerable in about four seconds.
SPEAKER 1 00:00:24 Worth testing against the cohort from last month rather than the current one, because that cohort saw the old copy.
SPEAKER 1 00:00:33 Also — ask design whether the progress bar is helping or just adding anxiety.

FAQ

Voice memo questions, answered.

Does it take .m4a from iPhone Voice Memos?

Yes, directly — no conversion step. M4A is what Voice Memos saves, and it's one of the formats free converters most often refuse. MP3, WAV, AAC, and the usual Android formats work the same way.

Can I do it on my phone?

Yes. Open the page in Safari or Chrome on the phone and pick the memo from the file picker or share sheet. There's no app to install and no need to move the file to a computer first.

How long can a memo be?

Up to 12 hours and 5 GB per file, which comfortably covers lectures, long interviews, and all-day field recordings. Long jobs keep processing if you close the browser.

Will it separate two voices?

Yes — if the memo caught an interview or a conversation, diarization labels the turns. A solo dictation simply comes back as one speaker.

What does it cost?

Minute packs are one-time purchases: $4 for 300 minutes — which covers a lot of voice memos — $12 for 2,000, $24 for 5,000. Credits never expire and there's no subscription.
