Record a voice note while you drive. With CarPlay, you can capture a thought, save it in a tap, and start the next one right away, all without reaching for your phone.
Your notes just got tougher. Edits save themselves, failed notes tell you why, and Apple Watch recordings find their way to your phone even out of range.
Switch your AirPods, plug in a USB mic, connect a Bluetooth headset. Your recording keeps going. Your full recording, every time.
No new buttons to find, just a tougher, more accurate version of what you already rely on. Better transcription, quiet recordings, and cleaner code blocks.
Nothing new to learn, just a better version of what you already use. Choose your date format, quick search on Mac, and dozens of stability and performance improvements across iOS, Mac, and Watch.
Speed is the feature. We rebuilt how sync works, how the notebook engine performs, and how fast your note is ready after recording. Everything just got faster. Still entirely on-device.
We caught a few issues from the last release. This one makes things right. Your recordings are safe and the app stays rock-solid.
Happy New Year! Starting as we mean to go on. Lots of goodies in this one. Quiet recordings come through clearer, see your recording without unlocking, and feel when things happen.
We're back to shipping fast. Less things to give you the ick. Rebuilt sync layer, fixed race conditions and edge cases. Your audio stays local. Your notes sync across Mac and phone instantly, reliably.
