What is included
An optional Apple offline recognizer is available only when its language works locally on the device and speech permission is granted. The bundled recognizer does not need that permission. Accuracy varies with language, accents, noise and overlapping speech. Review text, timings and cuts before sharing. The bundled model is compact; it does not guarantee verbatim or professional transcription. Video export uses H.264 MP4 and foreground processing.
One purchase includes all tools. No account, ads, subscription or in-app purchases. Imported recordings are not uploaded by the app. Cloud-only imports and a share destination you choose may require internet.
Processing and exports work locally after import. Cloud-only Photos or Files, support email and online sharing destinations may need internet.
