Loose notes turn into one list
This is what many desktops look like. Press the button and watch JP Note turn it into one list with dates.
How it works
In the notes field you click 🎙️ and speak. The recording appears as a card with a waveform and syncs encrypted with your other devices.
Transcription happens in the JP Note app on your PC. The first time, it downloads a speech model of about 250 MB. After that it needs neither internet nor a server. Recordings from your phone are transcribed as soon as JP Note runs on your PC.
Type a task the way you would say it
JP Note picks up the date, time and repeat and shows them before saving. Try one of the examples or type your own.
Simplified preview. The app understands more, for example “by 31 Oct” or “every 2 weeks”.

Frequently asked questions
Does my recording go to a cloud service?
No. Transcription runs on your PC with Whisper. For syncing between your devices the recording is encrypted on your device first.
Do I have to set the language first?
No. JP Note detects the language by itself. If you always speak the same language, you can set it in the settings.
What happens to recordings from my phone?
They sync encrypted. The card shows that the transcript is coming until JP Note runs on your PC and writes the text.
Are voice notes part of Pro?
Yes. Voice notes with transcript are part of Pro and the trial. Pro costs €9.99 once.
