Ratings and reviews

Used to be good, but now all of my recordings are no longer listed in the app and are just in my audio folder and you can't change where they're stored. Happened abruptly and if I didn't have my recordings set to back up to drive I thought I would have lost everything. No notice of this feature change either.

You will really enjoy this app I've been using it for several years already and simply is one of the best apps I have changed phones and all my previous recordings I've done are still here I love it you won't regret it and first of all it's free... what happened 2025... I had many needed recordings and now everything is all gone 🤔🤔🥺. I wish I had a notification this app was about to crash so I could have save some of the important recordings I had ....

I found this to be a very useful tool for recording my band rehearsals and for recording lectures. Playback mode is a bit cumbersome, but okay. A suggestion for improvement: An auto record level option as it can be difficult to set a proper level that won't distort and still be heard clearly, especially when going back and forth between recording lectures and music. EDIT: With the latest update, we lost the ability to set our own default folder to place our recordings. Please bring that back!

What’s new

– Update to comply with requirements to support Android 15.
– In newer Android versions, recording files are stored in app-private folder. This means that media player apps won't be able to access your recording unless you use Hi-Q to share a recording or open it with a media player app. Use a file manager to access old recordings in the "Recordings" folder. Please check the FAQ about this update: https://www.hiqrecorder.com/3-0-0-update/
– Dropbox automatic upload now works again.
