Sensory Scribe

Sensory Scribe is here to help you out with a handy recording and instant text transcription tool. Sensory Scribe captures text live from the audio recording and you can use it even when you’re offline or phone is in Airplane mode. Storing the original recording of a live meeting, event, medical appointment or lecture as an audio file is always a good idea. And having an instant transcription of the whole event is helpful for students, employees, family and customers alike. A great new accessibility app. External iPad or iPhone microphone recommended for recording at a distance.

Sensory Scribe Mobile turns your iPhone or iPad into a live transcription tool. Record speech, see your words appear in real time, and annotate important moments with color-coded markers -- all processed on your device with no internet connection required. A great new accessibility and productivity app.

REAL-TIME LOCAL TRANSCRIPTION
Tap record and start speaking. Sensory Scribe Mobile captures audio and performs speech recognition simultaneously, displaying words as they are spoken by any speaker in range. A dual-view display shows finalized text in the main area and live recognition results below, so you always see exactly what is being captured. You can look back at the history of the transcription whilst the recording continues.

COLOR-CODED MARKERS
Five marker types -- Page (purple), Red, Green, Blue, and Black -- let you tag moments during recording with a single tap. Use them however you like: section breaks, action items, urgent flags, questions, speaker changes or general annotations. Each marker is saved with a precise timestamp.

SYNCHRONIZED PLAYBACK
Review any individual recording with a visual waveform display (in app purchase option). Words highlight in sync with the audio as it plays. Colored marker indicators appear directly on the waveform, and Previous/Next buttons let you jump between markers instantly. Add, edit, or delete markers during playback to refine your annotations.

RECORDING MANAGEMENT
Save recordings with custom names. Duplicate recordings for separate annotation passes. Share complete recordings -- audio, transcript, word timing data, and markers -- as a single ZIP archive via AirDrop, Mail, Messages, or any other sharing method. Review any individual recording with a visual waveform display (in app purchase option).

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
All speech recognition runs entirely on your device. No audio, text, or personal data is sent to any external server. No internet connection is required for recording or transcription. Your recordings are yours alone.
