A voice journal for iOS that records, transcribes, and reflects entirely on the device, with no network access.
Nothing ever leaves the phone. It works the same in airplane mode.
01 / Record
Talk. It writes it down.
Tap once and talk. A live transcript appears while you speak, and when you stop, the full recording is transcribed on the device before it lands on home.
Speech models are downloaded once per language and run entirely on the handset. Airplane mode changes nothing.
Club
One payment, in for good.
Everything that makes OpenTranscribe useful is free for everyone, and stays that way. The club is how the app is supported: an optional one-time purchase, with a few looks as thanks. It is made directly through the App Store, with no purchase SDK, no account, and no server behind it.
Membership is verified on the device from Apple's own record, so it works in airplane mode, like everything else.
$25
Once. No subscription.
In US dollars; the price follows your App Store region.

Privacy
Nothing ever leaves your phone.
Recording, transcription, reflection, and storage all happen on the device, and the app works the same in airplane mode.
There are no requests, no sockets, and no third-party SDKs; there is no networking code in the app at all. Recordings stay in the native capture layer, and only file paths, durations, levels, and text ever cross into it. Every transcription and reflection engine has to declare that it runs on the device, and the app refuses any that does not. Entries are stored encrypted on the phone. There are no analytics, no crash reporting, and no accounts.
A claim like that cannot be backed by a privacy policy, only by source you can read. The code is public and MIT licensed.
