JAKARTA - On iOS 18, Apple brings a significant improvement to the Notes application by adding a built-in audio recording feature that facilitates the recording and transcription process of voice records. This new feature is available on the iPhone 12 and a newer model, allowing users to record live audio in records without the need to use separate apps or file sharing.

The audio recording feature in Notes is more than just a simple voice recording. When a user records, the app automatically generates a real-time transcript, making it easier to review and search for recorded content. This feature is very useful for students attending colleges, professionals holding meetings, or anyone who needs to quickly capture and refer to oral information.

Here are the steps to use the new audio recording feature in the Notes app on iOS 18:

Done! Although this feature offers a new ability to record, it should be noted that currently the transcript feature only supports English. However, Apple is expected to add support for other languages in the upcoming update.

In addition, in the upcoming iOS 18 update, Apple Intelligence will also be able to generate transcript summarys, providing shorter and more digestable versions of your voice recordings.
