What DayVo is
DayVo is a voice memo and diary app that turns speech into searchable text as it is recorded. It is available for iOS and macOS, with App Store compatibility specified for iPhone and iPad running iOS 17.0 or later and iPadOS 17.0 or later. Users can search recordings and edit, copy, or share transcripts. Transcription languages listed are English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, and Spanish. Recording can be paused and resumed as one continuous session. The app exports recordings as PDF summaries for use with tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Notion AI; its site also names iCloud and email sharing. The maker says recording, transcription, search, and insights run on-device without data collection or content being sent to its servers, and that core features work offline. The free plan includes core features and requires no account. Premium adds advanced AI insights and enhanced export for $2.99 a month or $25 a year. The maker describes the app as intended for people whose thoughts move faster than they can type. Transcription accuracy depends on audio quality, speaking clarity, and language, and is not guaranteed to be perfect or compatible with every device.
