■ Common Questions

Does it work completely offline?
Yes. Your audio never leaves your device. Works on flights, in remote areas, anywhere.

Can I transcribe WhatsApp voice messages or videos?
Yes. Share or save audio/video from WhatsApp to Whisper Notes and transcribe offline. Perfect for extracting subtitles without uploading to cloud services.

Is there a recording time limit?
No limit. Record for hours if you want. Longer recordings just take more time to transcribe on your device.

Does it support real-time transcription while recording?
Not during recording, but yes during transcription—after you finish recording, you'll see the transcript appear in real-time as it's being generated.

Where is my data stored?
Only on your device. We have zero access. Note: If you delete the app, your recordings are deleted too (because we don't keep secret backups). Please export important files regularly.

Why no AI summaries?
Privacy. We never upload your recordings to any AI service. Want summaries? Copy the transcript and use your preferred AI tool. We don't lock your data into a proprietary system.

Why does transcription stop when I switch apps?
iOS limits background GPU usage for third-party apps. Just return to the app and tap "Re-transcribe"—it will restart.

Which devices are recommended?
iPhone 12 and newer. Older devices (iPhone 11, iPhone SE 2nd gen) are not recommended—the app will not function properly on these devices.

What languages are supported?
English, Español, Français, Deutsch, Português, 日本語, 한국어, 简体中文, 繁體中文, Hindi, Arabic, Русский, Italiano, Nederlands, Polski, Svenska, Norsk, Dansk, Suomi, Türkçe, Tiếng Việt, Thai, Bahasa Indonesia, Bahasa Melayu, Čeština, Română, Magyar, Українська, Greek, Hebrew, Urdu, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Persian, Català, Hrvatski, Bulgarian, Slovenčina, Slovenščina, Lietuvių, Latviešu, Eesti, Íslenska, Tagalog, Kiswahili, Afrikaans, Shqip, Српски, Bosanski, and 50+ more languages.

Whisper Notes - Speech to Text App Comments & Reviews

Whisper Notes - Speech to Text Positive Reviews

Very accurateWhile the accuracy of this app is impressive, it does not address my immediate needs. I use VoiceOver and voice control simultaneously and need live transcription to allow for immediate edits before copying the text to be used in other apps. The accuracy when using voice control is pretty pathetic often requiring words to be spelled out letter by letter to avoid capitalization errors and vulgarity from being inserted when it wasn't spoken even though I am in a very quiet place. I will let several of my friends know about this app. It is pretty rare these days to find an app without subscriptions which is greatly appreciated for those of us on a very limited disability income..Version: 1.2.9

This app is a gem. It provides an easy and minimal to use UI.The accuracy is quite good, enough for casual note taking. Especially it also supports the audio recordings. I only have one wish of batch export and delete those exported. My intention is to export the notes to my journal system. Thanks for creating and sharing such wonderful tool!.Version: 1.1.3

Consider adding a chimeGreat app! Because it takes quite a bit of time to process before copying the transcription to your clipboard, please consider adding a chime after processing is complete so you don’t need to check the screen every few seconds to know..Version: 1.1.9

Great, mostlyThe app does what it says and totally worth $3. That said, I lost an important recording because I think iOS terminated the app in the background before transcription completed. I think that recording may be lost now? I hope not. It would be nice if we could defer transcription until later when I know I’ll have time for longer notes.Version: 1.2.0

Actually free! No catch!Whisper is a pain to install on the Mac if you don't already have a bunch of frameworks installed. It's great to have a graphic itnerface for it from a free program. I only wish there was a way to delete unused languages and alter settings via the GUI..Version: 1.0.3

Great app!This is a wonderful speech-to-text app -- so much more accurate than Appl'e Siri voice transcription. Maybe 3% as many errors. Will it ever support Metal or the neural engine to improve performance? UPDATE: I recently did a lecture transcript from an audio file, and the last 80% or so of the text lacked any punctuation -- just a huge stream of words with no commas, periods, etc. It would be fantastic, but maybe difficult or impossible?, to have WhisperNotes reliably add not only punctuation but also paragraph breaks. thanks!.Version: 1.0.3

Love it ! microphone sensitivity adjustmentWhat a nice feature! The speech recognition accuracy is amazing when talking in a whisper from an arms length away! (Ipad pro). Now I won’t be creating a disturbance when making notes. Thank you,.Version: 1.1.9

Please integrate into iMessage betterAllow either an auto share so you can pick a message to send the text to or integrate into an iMessage app. This would seal the deal for this app. Thanks..Version: 1.1.6

Not workingYour app seems to be broken. All I get is the search function at the top of the screen, and when I hit record record something it doesn’t record a thing. you might want to check into this, not working at all..Version: 1.2.1

Wonderful App with a Hardworking DevHad a small feature request and was fulfilled and updated within a week. I hope this app goes far..Version: 1.2.6

AmazingI love this app on my phone and computer. Simple and precise. Far better than siri for spelling and punctuation. Copies directly to clipboard when finished for pasting into any app you want..Version: 1.0.5

Good, but can’t find the url scheme to use as a short cutI love the app. there’s one feature I’d like to have. i’d like the ability to call this app using a URL scheme..Version: 1.2.9

Wonderful app!I really really like your app. Does a lot of what I needed. It was nice to chat with you on discord..Version: 1.2.3

Simple and functional - just 1 thing missingI love the simple design and auto copy... just needs a menu bar icon for even less clicks to use!.Version: 1.0.3

No real-time transcriptionNice that it can work offline, however other apps offer real-time audio transcription, which make this app feel outdated..Version: 1.0.9

Please make a real time subtitle functionIt does have a high accuracy. But it can be better with real time transcript!.Version: 1.2.3

I love uThank you for making this Please keep developing.Version: 1.1.3

GoodWhisper Notes - Looking forward to adding support for Cantonese!.Version: 1.2.2

How do you save the notes to a document on your computer??.Version: 1.1.3

AmazingThis is exactly what I want.Version: 1.2.1

Good so farPlease add shortcut support. Importing and exporting is cumbersome..Version: 1.0.9

Awesome!Works fantastic!.Version: 1.1.2

希望增加从文件倒入音视频识别功能希望新版本可以增加从文件导入音视频的识别功能,毕竟有些需求是想从音频视频里面快速的提取文本,让看的效率变得更高。.Version: 1.0.3

NiceHow can I print transcription?.Version: 1.0.3

祝越做越好越做越大识别率还不错,建议再加上自动翻译功能,以及实时输出文本。还可以把音频保留(以及音频进度条拖动、倍速播放),让用户可以选择回放.Version: 1.0.1

Works well, but no batch exportThis app is straightforward and works well. @Yeonni, Please add batch export! Batch exporting all text would help me organize and categorize my thoughts using an LLM (fast) What this app does: Record your thoughts (mostly accurately) by speaking them out loud throughout the day. You can keep the audio recordings if you want. You can select a voice clip/transcript to copy it. (But can’t export/“copy all text” all at once).Version: 1.2.4

Excellent mais il y a des bugsJe n’arrive pas à ouvrir certains fichiers audio m4a. Transcriptions quasi parfaites. Ce serait bien s’il y avait une option pour éviter que le téléphone ou la tablette ne tombe en mode veille pendant le téléchargement. J’arrive à ouvrir des fichiers avec mon compte OneDrive maintenant. Le prix est bon. Parfois mes fichiers audio n’ont pas de sons au début et c’est après que les conversations arrivent. Le fichier de transcription ne fonctionne pas bien dans ce cas-là. Ils arrêtent de transcrire après un moment..Version: 1.3.4

Perfect Transcription AppSo happy to have found this app. I use it to transcribe just about any meeting or appointment I go to accommodate my memory impacted by long covid, so the on-device processing is a must for me..Version: 1.2.9
