PIXEL RECORDER

A Pixel Recorder alternative for any Android phone

Pixel Recorder labels speakers only on a Pixel 6 or later, in US English. Memory Notch labels them on any phone with Android 12 or later, in 15 languages.

Three steps to get it working

  1. Get Memory Notch from Google Play. It’s free to download and runs on any phone with Android 12 or later.
  2. Press record. It detects the spoken language by itself, across 15 languages, and transcribes on the phone.
  3. Read who said what. Speakers are labelled Speaker 1, Speaker 2, in every language it transcribes. The labels are numbers, never names.
