About
You speak. Hum writes it up. Hum is a voice-notes app that does the work after you stop talking. Record naturally, and Hum transcribes it on-device and turns it into clean, structured "Minutes" — themed sections and the key points — that you can actually read, search, and share. No cloud. No account. Everything happens on your iPhone — Hum has no servers and never receives your audio, and your recordings live in your own encrypted iPhone backup so a lost phone doesn't lose them. AI MINUTES Every recording becomes structured notes — themed sections and key points, generated on-device with Apple Intelligence. Open a recording and the Minutes write themselves. (Requires iPhone 15 Pro or newer with Apple Intelligence.) ACTION ITEMS → REMINDERS When your Minutes contain action items, add them straight to Apple Reminders in one tap — "Sarah to send the deck" becomes a real reminder. Copy the whole Minutes to paste anywhere, too. ON-DEVICE TRANSCRIPTION Apple's latest on-device speech engine (with Whisper on older iPhones) transcribes locally on your iPhone — your audio is never uploaded. Tap anywhere in the transcript to jump straight to that moment in the audio. CHAT WITH YOUR RECORDING Ask a recording anything — "what were the action items?", "what did we decide?" — and get answers grounded in the transcript, on-device. (iPhone 15 Pro or newer.) EMAIL & SHARE MINUTES One tap opens your mail app with the Minutes ready to send — subject, notes, done. Copy them, add action items to Reminders, or export the lot. KNOWS WHO'S TALKING Multi-speaker recordings get speaker labels for clear conversations. Rename "Speaker 1" to "Sarah" and the whole transcript updates. LIBRARY SEARCH Semantic + keyword search across every transcript. Find an idea from last Tuesday in seconds. FOLDERS, FAVOURITES, TRIM, EXPORT Organise into folders. Star the important ones. Trim audio with a waveform editor. Export to Markdown, Apple Notes, Obsidian, or Drafts. QUICK CAPTURE Add Hum to your Lock Screen, Action Button, or Spotlight to start recording in a single tap. HOW HUM HEARS Hum records through your microphone — perfect for in-person conversations, interviews, and dictation. For a Zoom, Teams, or phone call, put it on speakerphone so the mic can hear the room. Hum is not a meeting bot: it does not join your calls or tap into another app's audio, so a call taken on a headset captures only your side. PRIVACY, BUILT IN - No cloud uploads — audio and transcripts stay in this app's sandbox - No analytics, no tracking - No account, no email required - Uninstalling Hum deletes everything - Network use is limited to one-time model downloads The full privacy policy lives in the app and on the website. FOR - Personal voice journals - Students recording lectures - In-person meetings, interviews, and one-on-ones (or calls on speakerphone) - Anyone thinking out loud who wants notes that stay theirs PRICING Free for 7 days. Then $9.99/month or $49.99/year. Cancel anytime in Settings. Hum is a sibling to Lume — same maker, same posture: small, considered apps that respect the people who use them.
