Encrypted before it leaves the device

Your audio is encrypted on your phone before upload and decrypted only on your device. The server can't read your recording content — a stronger trust claim than "auto-delete in an hour."

Recording quality depends on your microphone and surroundings — noise, distance and echo all matter.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Can I record and transcribe audio on my phone?+

Yes. BetterBizz records live microphone audio on Android and iOS and transcribes it automatically after you stop — no separate app needed.

How long can a single recording be?+

Up to 24 hours per recording, with pause and resume for long sessions.

What format is the recording saved in?+

Microphone recordings are saved as M4A before upload and transcription.

Does it detect different speakers?+

Yes. Choose one speaker or multiple speakers (1+) before upload; rename speakers in the transcript afterward.

What languages are supported?+

100+ transcription languages plus a multilingual mode for mixed-language audio.

Is my recording private?+

Audio is encrypted on your device before upload and decrypted only on your device (end-to-end encryption).

How is this different from uploading a file?+

Microphone recording is live capture in one flow — tap record, speak, stop, transcribe. Audio & Video Import is for files you already have.

When should I use System Audio instead?+

When the sound is playing inside another app on the same phone (meetings, podcasts, videos) — not in the room around you.
