Field notes
The described workflow keeps sessions line by line with timestamps, translations, and optional audio, then offers replay, slower playback, looping, and dictation. The page also describes importing iPhone Voice Memos synced through iCloud and lists several speech-recognition routes, including a downloaded open model or a cloud API using the user's own key.
