Made for iPhone and iMessage

Record in the app or from Messages, then keep the note with your others. Play through a list with lock screen controls.

Transcripts and summaries

Every recording can become a transcript you read along with, and a short summary you can skim.

Share beyond iPhone

Send a link. Android phones, laptops and any modern browser can play it, under the rules you set.

Private when you need it to be

A Restricted note opens only for the people you send it to, and each link locks to the first device that opens it. Share pages are not listed in search engines.

What to look for in a voice recorder for iPhone

A useful recorder does more than capture audio. It should turn speech into a transcript, let you keep listening when the phone is locked, and give you control after you hit send. Black Notes does that: AI transcripts and summaries, background and lock screen playback, and sender controls (unsend, listen-once, disappear after 24 hours or 7 days).

We don't publish ratings, download counts or awards here. Recipients can't download this note unless you turn saving on. Try it on iPhone and see if it fits how you actually record.

Questions

Is Black Notes a voice recorder for iPhone?

Yes. It is an iPhone app for recording voice notes, with an iMessage app and a web player for the links you send.

Can I keep playing notes when the phone is locked?

Yes. Playback continues in the background and from the lock screen, in the app and on the web player.

Can someone on Android hear a note I recorded on iPhone?

Yes. You send a link, not a file. They can play it in a browser, with the transcript and the rules you chose.

How do I keep a recording private?

Leave General access on Restricted (the default): only the people you send it to can open it, and each link locks to the first device that opens it. You can also use listen-once or disappearing. Share pages are marked so search engines do not index them.

Does the App Store listing have a rating yet?

Not at launch. This site does not show ratings, user counts or awards, because we will not invent them.
