Who it's for

In the Voice Memos app, tap the memo, tap the three-dot menu, choose Share, and save the .m4a (or AirDrop it to your computer). Then upload that file here.

Is the voice memo to text tool really free?

Yes - it's free. You get a few transcripts a day; sign in with Google to run it. No app install.

Does it work if it's just me talking?

Yes - a single-voice memo gives you a clean transcript (one speaker). It won't invent extra speakers from one voice.

What if the memo has more than one person?

m4a, mp3, wav, aac and ogg, up to 70 MB (about 1 hour of audio) per file.

How accurate is it?

High accuracy on clear audio across 90+ languages. Pocket noise and very faint speech are the hardest cases for any transcriber.

What languages does it support?

90+ languages, detected automatically; the transcript comes back in the spoken language.

Yes - copy the text, or download TXT and SRT right in the browser.

Is my voice memo private?

Your audio file is auto-deleted within 24 hours and your transcript after 30 days; neither is used for AI training.
