★★★★★
Simple and effective Does exactly what it's supposed to do. Saves recordings in wav format.
★★★★★
Does what I need. Quick and simple. Plays from app. Allows renaming of audio clips.
★★☆☆☆
Missed the two essential functions: recording and playing back These applications only purports to record sound - there is no ability to play it back once you record. Even as far as recording goes, it fails completely. Go to the folder where it says it recorded your sound, and there is no file. It does not record and it does not play. I suspect that I just installed some malware disguised as a dictaphone app.
