Voicenotes AI Notes & Meetings

At the most fundamental level, a voice notes app needs to record and trust, once lost, is hard to gain back. In just two weeks of testing Voicenotes, I've lost approximately three hours of very important recordings. First incident (March 11, iPhone): I was recording a note that reached 54 minutes when I paused it. I checked back twice over the next 25 minutes and the paused recording was still there both times. When I went to resume it the third time (roughly 30mins after pausing), it had vanished completely. The company acknowledged this as an "edge case." Second incident (March 25, Mac laptop): I recorded a critical 2-hour meeting on my Mac laptop. The laptop remained on and active throughout. When the meeting ended, I pressed stop and clicked the arrow key in the Mac app (that takes you the dashboard/site). The recording disappeared and I couldn't find it anywhere. Apple Watch reliability issues: Recording on the Apple Watch never worked consistently. Recordings would stop abruptly and disappear into the ether. I didn't even report this because I gave up on that feature rather quickly. If one user can encounter two "edge cases" in about two weeks, this app is not for me. I can't trust an app that loses important content, especially when those conversations can't be recreated. Three hours of critical recordings is too much to lose. To potential users: If you're recording important content you can't afford to lose, I'd recommend testing thoroughly with non-critical recordings first, or considering more established alternatives. To the developer: The core functionality needs to be rock solid before adding features. Focus on ensuring recordings are reliably saved across all platforms. I'll be looking for other options.

I’ve been on a mission for two weeks to cancel my subscription and have found it nearly impossible. I’ve gone through the app, which says your subscription is through the website, and you must go to the website. When I go there, the buttons don’t do anything; you see a circle within the button, and then nothing. I’ve been stuck paying for a subscription I no longer want. I found three different support emails for this company, and as of this date, no one has replied. It’s obscene that I now have to go through my bank to stop payment.

Earlier review. See the last paragraph. For months this had been my go-to app for notes, meeting, etc. Finally, though, I grew irritated at having to remove my iPad from the keyboard to read or make entries. To use an iPad one must use it in portrait mode with a finger or pencil. It is best used for those who prefer to use it with an iPhone. I kept hoping for an update but am giving up. 03/19/26 A new version of this app has been released. I opened it today to find that I can now use it with my keyboard much more efficiently in portrait mode. Now, in my view, it is the best app of its kind. I’m update my rating stars to five.

For the past few days, recordings haven't been uploading, and the app is starting to feel unreliable.

I’ve used this app several times all it does is record - it just spins as if I’m supposed to get something more. I’ve used Ottr and found it FAR superior. And this was recommend by a trusted course. Very disappointed.

I really wanted to like this app, but it ended up being frustrating and unreliable. First, organizing notes is a mess. There’s no clear or effective way to categorize recordings, separate meetings, or keep projects distinct. If you record frequently, everything quickly turns into an unmanageable pile. The meeting summary and output features sound great in theory, but they don’t consistently work. I’ve had recordings sit there indefinitely without generating a summary. In one case, I had to wait until the next day and try again — and because of that delay, I ended up paying for an extra week of the subscription just to access notes that should have been available earlier. Exporting is another major pain point. There’s no bulk export option, so you have to download files one by one. On top of that, the file formats are inconsistent — some export as MP3, others as M4A — which creates extra work if you need them in a uniform format. Transcription is also unreliable. The app claims to auto-generate transcripts, but sometimes timestamps are included and sometimes they aren’t. For meeting notes and professional use, timestamps are pretty standard and often necessary, so this inconsistency makes the transcripts less useful. Overall, the app has promising ideas but poor execution. Between the organizational issues, unreliable summaries, inconsistent exports, and unpredictable transcripts, it just wasn’t worth the subscription. I canceled.

I just installed it and tried it then it failed the very first time I tried to record from my watch. This is hard to buy if it can’t work. Sad because it seems perfect for me with all the other features

I have a yearly subscription and I loved it because I can use my phone AND watch but recently it’s off my watch and your update to your app has all of a sudden made it unavailable on my watch…if that’s the case can I get a refund for the portion I did not use or please reach out and let me know solution

When I first purchased this app, I really enjoyed how it took great notes and provided different types of summaries. Then recently with a update, the app became slow and failed to upload meeting notes. Hope it gets better or I would prefer a refund.
