Apple Speech is used by default. You can optionally configure your own Doubao or Qwen cloud ASR provider.
3. Polish
Optionally connect an OpenAI-compatible LLM to clean up spoken wording into a more readable note.
4. Archive
Notes, raw transcripts, and audio stay on your device for playback, search, and re-polishing.
Designed for Chinese voice notes.
Chinese-first
The first release focuses on Chinese recording, Chinese transcription, and Chinese note polishing. English speech quality is not part of the release promise.
Originals retained
Each note can keep original audio, raw transcript, and polished text so the result remains traceable.
Bring your own providers
Third-party ASR and LLM integrations are optional BYOK paths. Voicen does not provide hosted accounts, proxy APIs, or built-in credits.
Light system integration
Action Button, Control Center, and Dynamic Island support reduce the friction of entering a recording state.
Layered privacy boundaries.
The developer does not host your content
The Voicen developer does not collect, own, or process your audio, transcripts, polished notes, or provider credentials.
Third-party services are enabled by you
Audio or text is sent to a provider only when you enable a cloud ASR or LLM service yourself.
Credentials stay in the device Keychain
API keys and access tokens are stored in the current device's iOS Keychain. Non-secret settings remain in normal settings storage.
Frequently asked questions.
Is Voicen free?
Voicen is free forever, with no account, subscription, ads, or built-in AI credits. Third-party cloud transcription and LLM polishing are optional bring-your-own-key (BYOK) paths; you pay providers directly and Voicen never collects any fees.
Where are my recordings and notes stored?
Audio files, notes, and transcripts are stored locally on your iPhone. The Voicen developer does not collect, upload, or host this content. API keys and other credentials are kept separately in the device's iOS Keychain.
Which transcription engines does Voicen support?
Apple Speech, built into iOS, is used by default and works out of the box. You can also configure your own Doubao or Qwen cloud ASR and connect any OpenAI-compatible LLM to polish notes. All of these are optional.
Does Voicen support English?
The first release focuses on Chinese recording, transcription, and note polishing. English speech transcription quality is not part of the current release promise, and may improve in later versions.
Who receives my data when I enable cloud services?
Audio or transcript text is sent to your selected provider only when you enable a cloud ASR or LLM service yourself. How that data is handled depends on your agreement with the provider and its privacy policy.
A quiet entry point for voice.
Voicen is not trying to be a chatbot or a content platform. Its job is to help you capture voice quickly and come back to a usable note.
