Field notes
The homepage’s sample interview shows a question attached to a named topic, with speaker turns labeled by name and role; it also demonstrates jumping to the next or previous speaker. Its feature list adds episode topic markers, spoken summaries, and saved notes, plus playback controls from the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, widgets, Control Center, Action Button, or Siri.
