1. [R4] 5/5 · US Great App: Very user friendly. Recording quality is great
2. [R13] 5/5 · US Incredible audio quality: Me and my team use this app for recording episodes of our paranormal podcast and it never fails to amaze us with the way it works! We highly recommend this app for anyone who wants to have crystal clear audio for any occasion such as recording sessions of a podcast for example!
3. [R25] 5/5 · US Honest review: The best thing about this app is that it will pick up sounds and voices clearly from far away and it records so clear that the playback is like you were right next to the people talking, even though they were on the other side of a wall. I’ve never had anything free like this app that works this well. thank you for keeping this app Free. I do need some help files somewhere that inst
4. [R44] 5/5 · US Audio quality is great: This app makes recording and organizing your files super easy. What makes it stand above the rest is the audio quality. It’s superb!
5. [R1] 5/5 · US Good App: Simple and does the job. Thank you!
6. [R11] 5/5 · US Voicemail app: Very easy to use, good enough fidelity, very functional and practical.
7. [R34] 5/5 · US Does the job and easy to use: Perfect for me!
8. [R3] 5/5 · US Long recordings, but hard on the battery: I love this app, for being able to easily download the files onto my computer and make long recordings. I preferred when the app stayed on during dictating text messages and such. now it turns off if I move to any other program/page. I’d prefer that it turns off when I decide to turn it off.
9. [R69] 5/5 · US Honestly, love this app!!!!: I love how easy it is to record save send you could even record when you’re not on the app like it. There’s a background recording it’s a dope app
10. [R95] 5/5 · US Multi purpose: Record yourself reciting your pre trip inspection you have to recite to your tester on test day, college lectures, your boss sexually harassing you in private, or even your narcissistic abusive partner gaslighting you. You can even be low key about it. No need to worry about your phone screen lighting up, you can open other apps while recording! lengthy recording time and even an op
11. [R110] 5/5 · GB Excellent voice recorder - highly recommended: This is a great app. Good quality recording, and the recording whilst the screen lock is on is an excellent feature. Recommended
12. [R9] 5/5 · US I Love This App!: It does all I needed it to do: Stealthy recording, playback quality is awesome and easy to save and share! Thank You!
13. [R68] 5/5 · US Great sound quality: Way better and clearer sound compared to other apps - easy to use, save and share
14. [R2] 1/5 · US Every time I open it, I'm bothered by ads and can't record immediately. So annoying! · translated
15. [R6] 3/5 · US Good, but intrusive ads.: Has great options and features that I need in a voice recorder app (multiple file formats/etc), but has annoying ads that pop up every now and again. I’d happily pay a single fee to remove them, but no option exists.
16. [R16] 1/5 · US Ads impossible to close: After hitting “play” button add pops up covering whole screen and no place to close or cancel, so no way to get back to the original screen to stop recording, save, rename etc. Very frustrating.
17. [R19] 1/5 · US How do I remove ads on this program?: This is a pretty good program. I found a better on android than on Apple because on Apple, they just bugged to death with ads so I guess I have to pay for it, but I can’t see where to pay for it help
18. [R8] 1/5 · US Sickened: Twice now I've had buggy screwed up issues using this app. But this time, the second time is just heart breaking. When I hit STOP after a one hour recording, someone asked me a question (it was SUCH an important interview) and I did not name the file but I also did not delete it. I did not exit out of the app. Later I went to get the file and it did not save. WHY would you have a d
19. [R12] 1/5 · US Recordings Not Saved: Seems like a good app but my calls are not being saved. My last 3 recordings show me that they are being recorded & when I end the call, it is not being saved. Not sure how to fix this. Please help.
20. [R17] 1/5 · US Half the time doesn’t record anything: And then you don’t realize until an hour later that you got nothing. Useless.
21. [R21] 2/5 · US Not able to save file: I couldn’t save a file for some reason. I can’t figure out how to get the file back. It’s gone.
22. [R24] 2/5 · US Pro Version: The pro version does not play over my Bluetooth. The free version does, why? Is a fix coming, seriously needed
23. [R33] 4/5 · US App Won’t Connect to Bluetooth Speaker: I love this app as it is great for quickly recording musical ideas when I get them. One frustrating problem that I am having is that it won’t work with Bluetooth speakers for some reason… I have the Pro (ad free) version. Hope this gets fixed soon…
24. [R35] 3/5 · US Great But…: I love this app so I bought the premium version to get rid of the ads. The paid version doesn’t playback with Bluetooth so I’m using the free version which for some reason does. I hope the developers fix this bug!
25. [R51] 4/5 · US Pay version is terrible: The free version works perfectly. You get some ads, but when you try to upgrade to the pro version with no ads, you lose all your files that you’ve already recorded on the free version and there is no way to bring them in to the newer version. It installs a second app on your phone rather than to just update the free version. For some reason mine also does not play on Blue
26. [R18] 1/5 · US Please help recover Recordings: My phone was Factory reset, without my knowledge and all my recordings have been deleted. I’ve been trying to contact support, no luck! Is there any way to recover my files? I would be so grateful and give a 5 starrr. Please help!
27. [R20] 5/5 · US Need help: My daughter accidentally deleted the app which contained some important recordings. I reinstalled the app but the old files are not there anymore. Is there any way I can get back my lost files?
28. [R103] 5/5 · GB Amazing: Can someone please tell me how can I get back my deleted recording it was deleted by accident please and thank you. Someone please help.
29. [R142] 1/5 · GB Lost/deleted recordings: How do I retrieve the deleted recordings? Is there a way or option .
30. [R28] 3/5 · US 90% useless to me: Idk if it’s different in android. On iPhone, it never lets you record when you get off the app, it stops recording as soon as you get out. Most of my recording is done when I’m off the app. So it’s useless for me. I wanted to give 0 rating but it actually records but that is no different from other apps
31. [R71] 1/5 · US It was garbage because the recording stopped when the screen locked, and I lost an important recording. · translated
32. [R5] 3/5 · US It’s okay…: This App is okay. I would have given it 5 stars if it replenished storage instantly. It takes far too long to recognize deleted files and replenish the storage. That is the only thing that I don’t like about the App.
33. [R27] 2/5 · US difficult to use and hard to find the files in your phone: you can record but you will have a hard time finding the recordings on your iphone … it doesn’t give you any good options to scan your iphone directory for the files plus it’s plagued by too many ads
34. [R45] 2/5 · US Fills up internal storage with no way to mass-download via USB: This would be a GREAT app: fine recording, pretty good text-to-speech… BUT there’s no way to simply hook up a usb connection to a computer and move GBs of files. My storage is complete eaten up with years of thousands of tiny files that I can’t export (except by emailing thousands of files one by one).
35. [R63] 5/5 · US It works great: The app it self is good, and they don’t charge you for recording anything. I however do have a slight problem with the porting to files part. It makes you port them 1 by 1 and I’m not sure if it’s a way to select multiple and I haven’t found it but this is sorta slow and inconvenient porting multiple files 1 by 1.
36. [R15] 1/5 · US The free version is better than the paid version: I tried the free version and thought it was okay, so I decided to buy the paid version. But the paid version is so poorly made.... Isn't this a rip-off? · translated
37. [R61] 2/5 · US The app is not working!: Download the app while trying to edit, it would not save what was edited. Explain how you could edit your work, but one shoe edited a small section of you and moved to another section of your work it would not save it. Obviously, this is a flaw, so I cannot see the full potentials of this app, which is a dealbreaker. Also, if you try to save other files, the app would not
38. [R87] 1/5 · US Seriously?: I got the app and recorded a 3 minute session to see if I could learn it. With three college degrees, I thought I could. I tried to use the editing tools and they let me mark a section to remove but did not remove it.. Finally, I saved the piece and it disappeared. The app did not tell me where it saved it or where I can find it. Wasted my time. Don’t bother to waste yours. There
39. [R105] 4/5 · GB Brilliant app: Brilliant app...only observation is that it is a little complicated to cut sections etc.....but then that could just be me
40. [R14] 1/5 · US A cookie banner on an app???: Opened the app and the first thing I get is a box demanding my permission to track me for third-party advertisers. I've seen a lot of really stupid stuff from apps on here, but I have never seen this. There is no way I would trust crucial recordings to an app that pulls this sort of nonsense. Couldn't delete it fast enough.
41. [R37] 5/5 · US I love this App: This is one of my most favorite apps on my phone, it’s so precise and the sound is so realistic. It blows me away. I spend hours at a time and fun. I highly recommend this app to everyone.
42. [R22] 1/5 · US Bad bad bad: I mean when you need to watch fullscreen ads and then search for a special hidden X button, you probably already forgot your thought you wanted to record because of the current anger and frustration. It was a better experience on a hike in no service area.
