Field. - Field Recorder

Field is a field recording app built for people who love sound. Open it, press record.

Soundmark Field finds recordings that stand out from the others you've made at a place. Mark your own, or let Field suggest them. A creek, a cable car line, the particular hum of your kitchen — sounds that identify where you've been.

Similar Recordings Open any recording and find others in your library that share its character. Same acoustic moment, captured elsewhere.

Auto-bookmarks Field marks high-confidence detections while you record. Find the events in long captures without scrubbing through them.

Sound ID On-device AI identifies sounds as you record: birdsong, wind, rain, traffic, voices. Tagged and timestamped. Tags refine after each recording; tap × on any wrong one to dismiss it.

Import Bring existing recordings into Field from Voice Memos, JustPressRecord, Files, or any audio app's share menu. Imported recordings get the same treatment as native captures: tags, fingerprints, transcripts, soundmark candidacy, iCloud sync.

Acoustic Fingerprint Field measures every recording: loudness, true peak, dynamic range, spectral character, spaciousness, activity. Read it as a phrase ("warm and expansive," "steady and intimate"), or as numbers in any DAW that reads BWF metadata.

High-Resolution Audio Up to 96kHz, 24-bit in WAV, AIFF, FLAC, or AAC. You choose the resolution.

Live Transcription On-device speech recognition in 20+ languages. Your words become searchable text as you speak.

Location & Weather Every recording is geo-tagged with place, map, and weather conditions at the moment of capture.

Library Playback Play, scrub, and auto-play recordings from the library. Sort by date, duration, size, or location.

Live Monitoring Hear what the mic hears through your headphones while recording.

Time-of-Day Colors Recording cards reflect when they were captured: dawn, midday, golden hour, dusk, night.

Smart Playlists Rules-based collections that update themselves. Filter by tag, place, soundmark, duration, or any combination.

Reaper Project Export Share any recording as a Reaper .zip. Bookmarks become project markers; sound tags become region markers. Open the .rpp and you're laid out for editing.

Per-tag thresholds Tune how confident Field needs to be before adding each individual tag.

Folders Organize recordings by project, trip, or session.

iCloud Sync Your library syncs across devices. Never lose a recording. With on-demand audio, files download only when you open them.

Trim & Crop Set in and out points, preview the edit, save as new or replace.

Bookmarks Drop timestamped markers during playback. Add labels, tap to jump.

Video Export Share recordings as waveform videos in 16:9, 1:1, or 9:16 with optional metadata overlay.

Private by design. Field has no servers and never sees your data. Everything stays on your device unless you turn on iCloud Sync, and even then, your sync runs through your own iCloud account, not ours.
