Say “good take.” It marks itself.

Flowphonic watches the live transcript while you record. A handful of spoken English phrases — “good take,” “cut,” “circle this” — drop a timestamped marker at the start of the line you said them in. Review starts already organized.

No account. No cloud backup, and from version 1.0.1 Android's automatic app backup is off too. Recordings stay on your device unless you export them — the one exception is live transcription via your phone's online speech service when on-device recognition is unavailable or switched off.

The workflow

Record

Lossless mode records 48 kHz WAV — 16-bit, or 32-bit float if switched on — in mono or stereo, with an optional −12 dB safety track (no limiter, doubles storage) as a spare if the main take runs hot. Other tiers save smaller AAC files.

Mark

Say “good take” or “cut” mid-recording, or tap MARK. Each marker is timestamped and labeled, and any can be renamed. Voice triggers are English and only work while the live transcript is running.

Review & trim

Scrub with the jog dial, loop an in/out range, skip silence automatically, clean up hiss — all without touching the original file.

Export

Marker files for Premiere (XML), Resolve (EDL), and Final Cut (FCPXML) carry timecodes, titles, and quotes — no audio. Audio, SRT transcript, and safety track can go in the same share.

Try it

The dial, right here.

This is a demo of the app's transport control — drag the dial in a circle, or drag along the waveform below. In the app they scrub your actual recording; here, it's just for feel.

Built for the field

DND Quiet during the take

Optional: turn it on in Settings, then grant Do Not Disturb access once in Android's system settings. While you record, Flowphonic sets Priority only, then restores your previous setting when you stop — so most chimes stay out of a take you can't re-shoot.

LIBRARY Titles, markers and transcripts, encrypted

Your titles, markers and transcripts are encrypted at rest on your phone. Audio is saved as ordinary WAV or M4A files in the app's private storage (a Lossless WAV also carries its scene, take, start time and project name in its own metadata), and exports are plain files. Your recordings never go to a Flowphonic server, so there's no central store of them to breach. (The app does a quick purchase check with Google Play each time it opens.)

ASR Transcription, on-device first

On Android 13+ with a language model installed, speech-to-text runs on your phone. Live transcription can use your phone's online speech service instead if the On-device speech engine setting is off, there's no model for your language, or Android is older than 13 — and your audio never goes to a Flowphonic server. Saved takes are always on-device, and need Android 13+ and the model.

EDIT Fix a transcript by hand

Recognizers mishear things. Tap any line of a transcript to correct it directly — the same way you'd rename a marker.

On screen

Record screen with a running timecode, level meters, a live waveform and a running transcript with a voice-tagged marker — Record — live levels, waveform and transcript; say a trigger phrase and a voice marker is added.

Input FX sheet over the Record screen with gain and low-cut knobs, a limiter toggle and an Auto Record switch — Live FX — gain, limiter and low-cut in Lossless quality; Auto Record works on any quality.

Library screen with a search box, folders and takes listed with durations and marker counts — Library — sort takes into folders, and search titles, transcripts and markers.

Playback screen with the jog dial, speed buttons, and loop and skip silence controls — Play — scrub on the jog dial, change speed, loop, skip silence.

Trim view with IN and OUT points set on the waveform and jog dial, and a Save Trim button — In & Out — loop a range, then save it as a new file.

Transcript tab showing timecoded lines of a recorded interview — Transcript — timecoded lines you can correct by hand.

Export sheet with audio, markers and transcript options and a choice of marker formats including Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro — Export — choose audio, markers and transcript, then a marker format.

Settings screen with quality tiers, mono and stereo channels, and pre-roll, safety track and 32-bit float switches — Settings — pick a quality tier and channels; pre-roll, safety track and 32-bit float are Lossless options.
