What this voice recorder is for

Voice Recorder: Record Audio is an Android sound recorder that the developer aims at a wide range of uses: voice memos, meetings, interviews, lectures, music practice, podcasts and environmental sound. The listing describes it as free. Its working parts are recording, speech-to-text, folder organization, light editing, backup and sharing.

Students, people taking notes at work, musicians and podcasters are the groups the listing names most often. Each section below covers one of the main jobs the app is built for.

Recording voice, music and ambient sound

Recording captures audio from the microphone and saves it as a file. The listing names pause alongside save, so a session can be paused partway through and then stopped and kept.

Lectures and classes, singing, instrument practice, rehearsals and auditions are all listed as recording subjects. Podcasters can record monologues and interviews. The developer also lists nature, birdsong and everyday environmental sound.

Turning recorded speech into text

Transcription converts speech in a recording into written text, using what the listing calls voice recognition. The developer names meetings, interviews, lectures and voice notes as the kinds of recording it is meant for.

The text is intended for cases where you need the words written down, such as reviewing a lecture or keeping notes from a conversation, without listening to the whole audio again.

Sorting, splitting and merging recordings

Recordings can be placed in custom folders, which the listing suggests for sorting by course, subject, meeting or project. Keeping a folder per class is the example the developer gives for study use.

Editing is limited to splitting a recording and merging recordings together. Splitting lets you cut out sections you do not want, and merging joins separate takes into one file.

Backing up and sharing finished files

The listing says backups protect recordings against accidental loss, so a file you have made is not lost if it is deleted by mistake. The listing does not describe where backups are stored.

Finished recordings can be shared with friends, colleagues, classmates or an audience. This covers sending a lecture to a classmate or a podcast episode to listeners.
