Best voice recording app. BUT only for voice. Don't think it will record ambient sound - it will NOT anymore. There was a time when it it could easily record frogs and other ambient sounds in the woods and for that it gets my very first four-star review. (normally I give 5 and 1-star reviews. Otherwise whatever it is doesn't need my review lol.

LOVE! Want to record all your phone calls? This does it without effort. Been using it for yrs, and it's awesome to be able to go back and listen to conversations. Free, easy to install and set up. I have a bad memory so started to use this to be able to refer back to conversations. Also, comes in handy when dealing with important conversations. Also, it's nice when you want to keep conversations for sentimental reasons. Best phone recording app. I installed and uninstalled many. This is the one

I have installed this app multiple times, and every time it decides to record randomly when my phone is locked in my pocket and I have not touched it.

What Happened? This has been a great app, but after the recent update it has been just deleting recording when I hit save???? Never did this before. Also less important but the new GUI is gross, bring back the simple interface, it's harder to use and distracting.

It records in m4a format and unfortunately no converter could convert into a meaningful usable wav or mp3 format. Wasted about 3 hours on this simple exercise.

Great recording quality, but missing Croatian transcript support! The recording feature works great and the sound quality is top-notch. However, I am really disappointed that there is no option for the Croatian language in the transcription feature. Having to use all kinds of workarounds just to get a transcript is exhausting. I hope Samsung upgrades this soon and adds support for Croatian!
