Voice Memo to Text
Get your iPhone or Android voice memos as text — ideas, meetings, interviews, notes to self — without installing another app.
How to convert a voice memo to text on iPhone
1. Open Voice Memos, tap the recording, tap ⋯ and choose Share → Save to Files (or AirDrop it to your Mac). 2. Open this page in Safari and tap the upload box above, then pick the .m4a from Files. 3. The transcript appears in a minute — copy it or download TXT.
Recent iPhones can also show a transcript inside Voice Memos, but only for some languages and it's hard to export — this gives you clean text you can paste anywhere, with timestamps.
On Android
Share the recording from your recorder app to Files or Drive, then upload the file here. M4A, MP3, AAC, OGG and WAV all work.
Voice Memo to Text FAQ
Which format are iPhone voice memos?
M4A (AAC audio). Upload it as-is — no conversion needed.
Is it really free without signing up?
Yes. Without an account you can transcribe files up to 10 minutes, 3 files a day. A free account gives you 120 free minutes every month and files up to 30 minutes. After the free minutes, transcription uses 1 credit per 5 minutes of audio, and paid plans allow files up to 60 minutes.
Do you keep my recording or transcript?
No. Your file is converted in your browser and sent in short pieces for transcription; we don't store the audio or the text. Download your transcript before closing the page.
