Voice Note
Say it: Root turns it into editable text
Speak a thought, a task, or an idea. Root transcribes it into a note you can edit, search, and use like any other text.
Root for iPhone
One place for everything you capture.
Voice notes that become editable text. Smart Scan for useful QR codes and text in photos. Links from your browser. All of it lands in one private workspace. Free, with no account required.
- Free to download and use
- No Root account needed
- Your workspace starts locally
Four ways to capture
Use whatever fits the moment.
Root meets you where the thought is, not where it's convenient to type.
Meetings
Record a conversation, get a searchable transcript
Capture a meeting, interview, or call as a dedicated transcript instead of a buried audio file you'll never revisit.
Smart Scan
Scan a QR code or capture text from a photo
Point your camera to scan useful QR links or pull text from photos. Root saves what matters straight into your workspace.
Share Sheet
Tap Share from your browser: it lands in Root
Found something useful in Safari? Tap Share, choose Root, add a quick note if you need it, and it's in your Inbox.
Share with Root
Save from any app in two taps.
Root captures the source (a useful page, link, or selected text), then lets you add a quick note before it lands in Inbox.
Capture the source
Share the useful page, link, or selected passage you want to keep.
Choose Root
Root opens a small review panel with the shared material already attached. Add a quick note if it needs context.
Append to Inbox
Keep Inbox selected and tap Append. The capture lands in your Root workspace, ready to shape later.
Private by default
Your workspace stays yours.
Root works locally without a Root account. Your library lives in app storage or a Files location you choose. Sharing, file providers, and Apple speech services have their own boundaries; see Privacy. When you want the same workspace across iPhone and other devices, optional Root Connect syncs through your own Google Drive (one US$9.99 unlock, no subscription).
Syncs through your own Google Drive · No Root-hosted notes storage
Also on Chrome
Root is even better when your phone and computer work together.
The Chrome extension gives you the same workspace beside the web: a private side panel with Research Draft and source capture. Optional paid Root Connect syncs through your Google Drive. Use Sync now and check the result on each device before continuing. Each app also works on its own.
