Auto Voice Memos

Automatically Record Voice Memos from your Wrist

With watchOS 4 and the new background recording — record voice memos automatically upon speech.

Using a Speech Detection Algorithm, Auto Voice Memos only records when it hears fluctuations in sound that mimic human vocals*. Scrubbing through minutes of empty audio, or having to pause and resume recordings are a thing of the past. And because Auto Voice only records upon speech, audio recordings can be saved in small file sizes.

• Record directly from your Apple Watch with watchOS 4
• Recording starts/resumes when you speak and pauses when you stop speaking
• Background recording allows you to lower your wrist or use other apps while in use**
• Listen and scrub with the Digital Crown through your voice memo audio from the watch app
• Can be used worn or placed on a nearby desk
• Stores the 5 most recent memos on the watch
• Syncs in the background with the iPhone app for a full archive
• Share voice memos from the iPhone app

Watch App Tip: Firmly press on the recording screen to Save or Delete the recording memo

*Auto Voice processes the audio 100% from the watch allowing you to use the app even when away from your iPhone. Though Auto Voice works well to only pick up the human voice, because the main determinant is fluctuations in decibels other sudden fluctuations may be picked up and recorded. Auto Voice won't initiate recording to fan noises, hums or any other stable noises.*

**If other apps or processes such as Siri, Timers, or Notifications activate — Auto Voice will pause any "listening/recording" until Auto Voice is active again**
