A call with a client, a supplier or a public office: recording it saves note-taking, transcribing it makes everything searchable. Here is how, and what to keep in mind before you record.
Transcribe now, free →Rules differ by country: in many it is legal to record a conversation you take part in, but sharing it or using it against the other party may not be, and at work you often have to inform. When in doubt, say it at the start ("I'm recording to take notes"). TraScrivo deletes the file right after transcription and keeps nothing.
Phone audio is compressed and narrow-band: transcription works well, but proper names and numbers need a second look. The text does not separate the two voices: questions and answers are clear from context, and timestamps take you to the spot to re-listen. Long calls are split and transcribed in full.
On iOS 18 and later recording is built into the Phone app (participants are notified automatically) and the file lands in Notes. Older models need an app or a second device.
Many phones (Samsung, Xiaomi, Google in some countries) have recording in the Phone app; the file is m4a or mp3 and uploads directly.
No. They are transcribed and deleted right away. No account, no archive.
