Reliable & Safe Voice Recorder is a free, easy to use audio recorder for interviews, lectures, meetings and notes to yourself.
It keeps what you record. Audio goes to disk as you speak, so a crash, a phone call or a flat battery cannot take your recording with it.
Record for as long as you like. No time limits, no limit on how many recordings you keep, and no ads.
YOUR RECORDINGS ARE SAFE
Most audio recorder apps hold your voice in memory and only write the file when you press stop. This one is writing the whole time, so your audio is already on disk before you ever tap Stop & save.
If a recording is cut short, the app finds it on the next launch, finishes it and hands it back labelled Recovered. If the phone dies outright, it tells you after the next boot.
The timer tells the truth, too. The number on screen is counted from audio that actually landed, not from the clock, so you never end up with an hour on the display and an empty file. If another app takes the microphone, the number stops and the screen tells you why.

EASY TO READ, EASY TO REACH
Big type, and four states you can tell apart across a room. Record, Pause and Stop buttons about twice the size Android asks for. Turn your system font up and the text comes with it. Controls are labelled for TalkBack and other screen readers.
A DICTAPHONE, NOT A NOTES APP
One big Record button starts a recording. Stop & save ends it. This voice recorder keeps the dictaphone habit, and it suits a two hour lecture as much as a quick voice memo.
FREE AND PRO
The recorder is free. All of it. Pro is one purchase, never a subscription, and it unlocks bookmarks you add as you speak (index marks, in dictation terms), trim, and 192 kbps recording. That is the whole list.
NO ADS. NO ACCOUNT.
No ads, anywhere, ever. No sign up, no AI and no subscription. A dictaphone you own outright, and a sound recorder that keeps your recordings safe on your phone unless you share them.
Our voice recorder continually saves your recording, so nothing is lost.
