Tape JournalMade for iPhone Duo
A tape recorder that writes.
Closed, it's a little tape recorder: hold the record key until it clicks, and talk about your day. Open it, and your words are already on the page.
A demo. Nothing is recorded, and the microphone stays off.
How it works
Talk for a minute or ten. The page keeps up.
-
Hold to record
A key you can feel, with the click and clunk of a real mechanism. A tap won't start it, so your pocket won't either.
-
Words on the page
Your voice becomes words while you talk, right on your device, with Apple's speech recognition.
-
Play and follow
The words light up as they're spoken. Tap any word to jump there.
-
A cassette a day
Each day gets a short title on its label, so the shelf reads like a diary.
-
Find by voice
Hold FIND and say a word. The days you said it light up.
-
The day in short
SUMMARY gives you what happened and what to follow up, written on your device by Apple Intelligence where it's available. AI can make mistakes, so check what matters.
Made for iPhone Duo
One machine, three ways to hold it.
-
Closed: a tape recorder
The outer screen is the machine. Hold ● until it clicks, then talk into it, pocket-sized, like a dictaphone.
-
Open: a notebook
Unfold it and the page is waiting beside the machine, with every word you said.
-
Half open: on your desk
Stand it up like a little laptop. The page sits on top and follows the tape as it plays.
Also works on every iPhone and iPad with iOS 27: the paper above the machine, or beside it in a wide window.
Private by design
Your diary stays yours.
- Words
- Made on your device by Apple's speech recognition.
- Summaries
- Written on your device by Apple Intelligence, where it's available.
- Account

- Our servers
- None. We never receive your recordings or your words.
- Backup
- A copy in your own iCloud Drive, when iCloud Drive is on.
