Ratings and reviews

I used to like it a lot. The sound quality was good, I loved that I didn't need to stay in the app to keep recording something while also being on my phone. But...for the last few months it has not been the best. With my Bluetooth headset connected, it doesn't record anything. The playback is muffled or non-existent. It sounds like gears against a metal grater. Audio quality has gone down drastically. Luckily I don't have to deal with ads but I hate that I can't uninstall it.

Easily, and hands down the best recorder app I've ever used. It may not be as in-depth as some of the other apps on the Play store, but it's definitely my favorite. It's easy to use, has lots of complex AI features, and syncs across all my devices. The downsides are no folders, clunky transcription editing, missed transcriptions, and no way to add tags after recording.

Excellent at recording, but a bunch of software locks for stuff it should be able to do, namely, can't do any imports take advantage of its incredible capabilities. Current bug: Location for your recordings are saved, and you have the "suggestion" to search by location at the search bar. Problem is, it actually just looks for the "name of the actual location", which doesn't pop up. Should be a trivial fix if any of you want to get around to it.
