About this app

Record an idea, a meeting, a lecture — Carte Sonore turns it into text right on your phone, from the moment you install it and with no connection. Speech recognition runs on the device: your voice never leaves your pocket.

YOUR VOICE STAYS PRIVATE
Unlike cloud transcription services, Carte Sonore runs its artificial intelligence on your phone. No account, no data sent anywhere: your audio, transcripts and notes stay with you. The only connection the app can make is downloading an optional model, at your request. The transcription model ships inside the app, so it works entirely offline from the very first launch — on a plane, on a trail, anywhere.

ON-DEVICE TRANSCRIPTION
• A transcription model ships with the app: your recordings are transcribed automatically from the moment you install it, with nothing to download (Whisper technology, running locally)
• Three more accurate models available as an option, downloaded once from Settings — including one optimized for French
• Karaoke-style synced transcript: the text highlights as the audio plays

ORGANIZE YOUR RECORDINGS
• Folders by theme: drag a recording onto a folder to file it
• Merge several takes into one combined recording — continuous playback, unified transcript, split it apart again at any time
• Search across titles and transcripts, with waveforms true to the actual audio

A VOICE RECORDER BUILT FOR THE FIELD
• Hold-to-record (walkie-talkie style) or hands-free recording
• Real-time VU meter, up to 10 min per take (auto-stop)
• Export your entire library as a ZIP, whenever you decide
• Dark mode, 4 languages switchable in Settings (English, French, German, Spanish), careful accessibility

FREE, NO ADS OR TRACKING
The app is completely free. No ads, no tracking, no subscription, no credits — and no sign-up.

Perfect for ideas on a walk, meetings, lectures, interviews, voice journaling, field memos — anything worth finding again someday, written out word for word.
AI voice notes and transcription, 100% offline. No account, no subscription.
