I got proof to get my abusive father arrested with this. He never got caught in 14 years and this year, I was recording me singing, and it caught the moment he came into my room and everything. Saved my life. Ty 😊 💕

So far so good👍! I mean, LOVE THIS APP MORE the simplest fact that, you have option to prevent incoming calls or muted the phone from ringing while you are RECORDING an important subject Because that was my literally, an absolute and biggest worsted nightmare issues that I used to have. By the damn phone will begin ringing at the worst time possible. And then, you all guys went and did it for m, making it one of my many dreams come true. A very well done to the developer. Cheers🥂👏🤜🤛✌️👍

Please consider naming recordings with their timestamp (e.g., 2026-06-03 14.37.52) instead of generic names like "Voice 001". It's more meaningful, easier to organize, and remains useful even when metadata is unavailable.

Useless... Wanted to record something important, a speech of one hour. The recording stopped own It's own exactly at 10 minutes. Realized only later. Just because samsung wants to show off its new feature, I lost an important recording, how dumb and disgusting.

It was perfectly fine before. It doesn't need AI! Let me get rid of this forced feature the app doesn't need, and I don't want. Or at least get rid of the orange dot that keeps reminding about it. I should only have to glance at a new feature for it to go away! I'm not going to use it.

Good audio quality, but really, really bad UX. no quick save, no way to save recording with the same name, no way to listen in background while managing recordings.

Recording capped at 3 hours thanks to their stupid AI voice transcription that you CANNOT disable. Samsung had to ruin yet another fine app

Records in m4a and doesn't let you record in other formats.
