Easy file naming and renaming for simple organization.

2023-11-01	Tw*****	There is no help or option to recover deleted memos as I keep reading. It would be great if I could find someone to help with this before too late.

2023-10-03	Mi*****	I downloaded this last week and gave it a quick try, and it seems to work quite well. The only thing is I would love to be able to use it with my AirPods Pro, and use the microphone in those rather than the one on my iPhone. I can’t find a way to contact the developer, so I’m wondering if this might be a possibility?

2023-04-20	So*****	I “had”really liked this app prior to the recent update. Before you press to record & it would record everything & i had bragged to other people how great this was BUT NOW it’s voice activated when you press record & it “doesn’t” catch the beginning part of what needs to be recorded nor the end. I hope there’s a new update to correct that problem

2023-02-18	Th*****	New 2023 version has a launch bug. My previous review was: Good recording interface. Easy to use. Voice activation with tunable sensitivity, which is lacking in Apple’s Voice Memos. ‘Dictaphone Voice Recorder’ has decent voice file exporting and importing ability via Air Drop and Voice Memos, and iTunes. It sorts your files by date and you can name them however you want, and those things are absent in Apple’s Voice Memos. It still needs the ability to sort files by name and doesn’t have that. Reliable, but no support from publisher.

2022-12-04	RB*****	This works great, sound quality is good and I like that I can adjust the sound threshold for recording. A nice feature would be to be able to use a Bluetooth microphone as an option to the phones microphone.

2022-10-01	ko*****	my installation was removed by an IOS upgrade. There is no way to recover the recordings that were removed, also. Very poor programming!
