This is an app I really needed. The UI cn be improved tho, I don't want the tags before I create memo. I don't really want a long title either. also the size of fonts and everything is too big compared to normal apps, which makes it difficult for me to view things properly. I want to be able to add multiple recordings to one note too. All the icons are too big and clunky, I want the record button like a simple voice recorder that's in the default recorder app. I should be able to organize notes

Thank you for your feedback, Tripti. I will look into why the icons and text font is too big on your device based on the screen resolution.

*Edit If there was some kind of warning or something. I had the app a week used it 15-20 mins a day. Next day was out and needed to pay and the month just started. Bad business. 1 star now no communication. I was enjoying it... Seems out of no where, a subscription is going to limit the already limited functionality. Looks like I'm on the hunt again for something helpful. Not worth the price for the options available.

Sad to hear that. Transcription services require a lot of infrastructure and Server costs to maintain them, not counting the countless months of writing the code. I do understand that a lot of people come from different background, but 3$ is the price of the coffee in most cities and is the cheapest price compared to other transcription apps.

Just downloaded and starting using extensively right away. Very disappointed to see that several recordings not only never transcribed, but failed to do anything- they just aren't there at all. I was in the middle of Denver so service wasn't the issue. Seems like a good idea but the reliability makes me feel like I need to keep looking for alternative options.

If the recording does not show up as a note in the app, it will never be transcribed. Sounds like an issue of not recording the audio. Did you give permission to the app? Please send me an email: contact@braindumpnotes.app I will take a look in analytics what went wrong.

What’s new

- New settings item for Recording Quality
- UI improvement: showing category tag in notes list
