HushMemo - An offline iPhone voice-note app that turns recordings into transcripts, summaries, and action items

I kept reaching the same frustrating point with voice-note apps: I had a transcript, but I still had to reread it and manually turn it into decisions and tasks. I also didn’t want every private recording uploaded to a meeting bot or cloud service.

So I built HushMemo for iPhone.

It can record or import audio, create an editable transcript, and turn it into a structured summary and action items. After the required models are downloaded, the core workflow runs on the device. No account is required, and recordings stay local by default.

I chose a $9.99 one-time purchase instead of a subscription or per-minute transcription fees.

The tradeoff with local processing is that speed and model storage depend on the device, but I think that’s worth making explicit instead of hiding it. For people who use voice notes: would offline privacy or automatic action-item extraction be the stronger reason to try this?

[iOS] I built HushMemo because a transcript wasn’t the final result I needed

Hi r/GenAiApps — I’m the solo developer behind HushMemo.

I built it around one observation: a transcript is usually an intermediate step, not the final result.

After recording a meeting, lecture, interview, or spoken idea, I still need to find the key points, decisions, action items, and what should happen next.

So I built one workflow:

Voice -> Transcript -> Structured Summary -> Action Items

HushMemo can:

• Record or import audio

• Create searchable, editable transcripts

• Generate summaries using 24 structured templates

• Create meeting minutes, study notes, emails, and drafts

• Extract TODOs and collect them in one place

• Use custom vocabulary for names and technical terms

• Let you ask questions about an individual note

After the required models are downloaded, the core transcription and summarization workflows run on the device. Recordings, transcripts, summaries, vocabulary, and notes stay on the device by default. The app does not require an account or cloud note sync.

HushMemo is available on iOS for a $9.99 one-time purchase. There is no subscription or per-minute transcription fee.

I also have a small number of single-use App Store promo codes for people who genuinely want to test HushMemo with a real recording. Please DM me privately with your iPhone model and what kind of audio you would test. No upvote, follow, rating, or review is required.

I’d especially value feedback on one thing: which part matters most to you in this workflow—transcription accuracy, summary quality, action-item extraction, or processing speed?
