Transcribe Voice Memos to text on iPhone

Transcribe Here turns iPhone Voice Memos into searchable text using Whisper — entirely on your device. No upload, no account, no cloud transcription.

How it works

Step 1

Record in Voice Memos

Capture your memo in Apple's Voice Memos app like you already do — meetings, lectures, interviews, ideas.

Step 2

Share to Transcribe Here

Open the share sheet on the recording and choose Transcribe Here. The audio moves into the app locally — nothing is uploaded.

Step 3

Get your transcript

Whisper transcribes the memo on your device in seconds. Read it, search it, or share the text wherever you need it.

Nothing leaves your device

Voice memos often contain sensitive conversations. Transcription runs entirely on-device, so the audio is never sent to us or to a transcription service.

Works offline

The bundled Whisper Tiny model transcribes with no network connection at all. Larger models download once and then run locally.

More than Voice Memos

Transcribe Here also records directly in the app, imports audio files from anywhere via the share sheet, and runs on iPad and Mac with the same Universal Purchase. Optional private iCloud sync keeps your library available across your devices without a developer-managed account.
