From your first recording to a backup you can restore.
Get started
You can record, import, play, edit and read local content without signing in. Microphone access is requested when you start recording. Record and upload only content you have the right to use.
Import supported audio from Files, video from Photos, or media shared by another app. Sayfolio cannot capture phone calls or protected system audio from other apps.
Back up to your own storage
- Open Settings → Backup & restore and select your notes.
- Choose a full backup with audio or a text-only backup.
- Save with Files to your device, iCloud Drive, or an enabled Google Drive location.
- Confirm the upload finished, then test restoring the backup before deleting originals.
Why can't I see Google Drive?
Install and sign in to the Google Drive app, then enable Google Drive under Browse in the iOS Files app. Sayfolio uses the system file provider and does not sign in to your Google Account directly.
Backup ZIP files are not password-encrypted. They do not contain API keys, sign-in credentials or credit balances. A text-only backup cannot restore original audio. Large libraries may need several backups.
Transcripts and export
Export a transcript as TXT for reading or SRT with subtitle start and end times. Export notes as Markdown. Sayfolio does not burn subtitles into video. Review names, timing and important facts against the original recording before sharing.
Online AI processing
Transcription and AI notes require internet and Sign in with Apple. Before your first AI request, Sayfolio explains the data, recipients and purposes and asks for your explicit agreement. That account permission can be withdrawn in Settings → Privacy. Each operation still requires a separate price or provider-cost confirmation.
Hosted processing and bring-your-own-key (BYOK) both use Sayfolio's backend in Google Cloud us-central1 and Google Gemini. Gemini processing is not guaranteed to remain in the United States. BYOK also requires separate key-sharing agreement and your declaration of an active paid Cloud Billing project; key validation does not prove billing is active. Read the privacy policy.
Each visible audio part supports up to 240 minutes, subject to the displayed file-size limit. Longer sources are split into linked parts. Provider limits can delay processing.
What if a job fails?
Keep the original audio. Check your connection, credits, key status and file limits, then follow the displayed retry guidance. For support, send the job ID and error code, never an API key or private recording.
Purchases and credits
Sayfolio is a one-time app purchase. The price and currency in Apple's purchase sheet depend on your Apple Account storefront. The app includes local tools, BYOK and manual backup; hosted AI requires credits, while your own provider bills BYOK usage. It is not an unlimited AI plan or automatic cloud sync.
- Hosted transcription: 0.5 credit per started 30 seconds.
- Each successful hosted note: 3 credits per started 30 minutes of source audio.
- BYOK stages use no Sayfolio credits; provider charges may apply.
Notes are off by default. Review the itemized quote before every job. If transcription succeeds but notes fail, only the completed transcription is charged. Editing, reading and export use no credits. Consumable credits do not expire, but spent credits are not restored when you reinstall. If a purchase is missing, sign in to the original account and refresh the balance. TestFlight Sandbox credits are separate from production purchases.
For refunds, use Apple's refund page; Apple decides the result.
Account and deletion
Delete local notes in the app, remove your BYOK keys, or request account deletion in Settings → Account. Backups you saved to your own iCloud Drive or Google Drive remain under your control. Confirm you have a restorable backup before deleting local data.
If you cannot access the app, contact us about data access or deletion. We will request only the information necessary to verify your identity, never your Apple password or full API key.
