I needed a free, easy to use recording app to have a record of reoccurring sometimes violent emotional abuse I have been dealing with for many years. This one works well & seemed to be what I needed since it didn't make any noises & I use my phone as usual except microphone & it continues to record. I noticed today it has taken $10.79 out of my PayPal. NOT COOL! Theres a $2.99 plan, but it chose higher $ one. I cancelled. I'm on SSDI & must watch each penny. I NEED MY MONEY BACK PLEASE!!

Had issues with this when I first tried it, you can read my earlier edits for details, but I decided to give it another chance. It’s not exactly straightforward to use and feels kind of clunky at times, especially when trying to find saved recordings on your phone outside of the app. That said, it does serve a purpose. I guess I just had higher expectations for a sound recorder made by Google. I expected something a little more polished and user-friendly than this.

Audio keeps disappearing on long recordings Been using this on my Pixel for a while. Short recordings are fine, transcription is actually useful. But every time I record something around an hour, parts of it just go silent. Random minutes in the middle have zero sound, and the first few seconds are usually missing too. Happened more than once already. Super annoying when you need the full audio later.
