Frequently Asked Questions
What does SpeechNotes+ do?
It turns speech into text on your iPhone. You can record a voice memo, capture the microphone, or caption another app with floating bilingual subtitles. Every session is saved so you can reopen the transcript, generate study notes, and export Markdown.
Can I caption YouTube and other apps?
Yes. Start floating captions, then use Screen Broadcast so SpeechNotes+ can hear system audio. Subtitles sit over the other app via Picture-in-Picture. DRM’d services such as Netflix cannot be captured; YouTube, web video, podcasts, and your own files work.
How does SpeechNotes+ handle privacy?
Recordings, transcripts, translations, and study notes stay on your device. We don’t run our own analytics or advertising SDK, and we don’t use your audio to train models. See the Privacy Policy for details.
What’s free, and what’s Premium?
The free tier includes 5 minutes of transcription per day, shared across mic, screen, and memos. Premium removes that cap and unlocks summaries, cleanup, flashcards, and quizzes. Plans: $0.99 weekly, $4.99 yearly, or $9.99 lifetime.
Do I need an account or the internet?
No account. Language packs download once from Apple, and an optional on-device AI model can download from Hugging Face. After that, transcription, translation, and study tools can run offline.
What iPhone do I need?
SpeechNotes+ requires iOS 26.2 or later. On-device generation uses the GPU, so keep the app open while summaries, flashcards, or quizzes are building.
