What’s new

Every update, in one place.

The notable, user-facing improvements we’ve shipped to Noteary — newest first. No hype, just what changed and why it helps you remember more of what you hear.

Nothing you said gets quietly dropped
  • A dropped connection no longer leaves a hole in the transcript

    Mac & iPhone

    If the network hiccuped mid-recording, Noteary kept capturing and reconnected — but the audio from those seconds never reached the server, so the transcript simply skipped them with nothing to say why. That audio is now held on your device and sent the moment the connection is back, including if you pause or stop while it’s still reconnecting.

  • Clicking away mid-recording asks first

    Web

    Opening your library, jumping through the command palette, reloading the tab, or logging out used to end a live recording on the spot, without a word. Now Noteary asks before doing anything that would stop it.

  • Recordings made offline finish uploading on their own

    Web

    A recording queued while you were offline now uploads as soon as you’re back — when you reconnect, when you return to the tab, or the next time you open Noteary. On Safari it could previously wait indefinitely.

  • Recordings can no longer get stuck with nothing coming for them

    Everywhere

    A recording whose processing was interrupted at exactly the wrong moment could sit in your library untranscribed forever. Noteary now finds those and finishes them.

It notices the meeting so you don’t have to
  • Noteary offers to record when a meeting starts

    Mac

    When a Zoom, Teams, Webex, Google Meet, or Slack huddle call begins, a small card appears asking if you want to record it. One click starts capture with the meeting’s audio already selected. Ignore it and it disappears on its own — the countdown drains behind the text. Noteary never joins the call, and nothing is recorded unless you say so.

  • A recording HUD that stays out of the way

    Mac

    While recording, a compact bar shows elapsed time and a live level meter, with pause and stop right there. It floats above full-screen meetings, and you can drag it anywhere — it reappears where you left it next time.

  • Pause and resume, and auto-stop when the call ends

    Mac

    Pause for a side conversation and pick up where you left off. When the meeting window goes away for good, Noteary stops the recording on its own instead of quietly capturing your empty room.

  • Import transcripts you already have

    Web

    Drop in .txt, .srt, or .vtt files — including exports from Otter — and they’re analyzed and added to your library exactly like a recording you made here. Select as many as you like; they upload and process in the background.

Capture the meeting, not the room
  • Record any meeting app on Mac

    Mac

    Pick Zoom, Teams, Meet, or any other app from a live list and Noteary captures just that conversation alongside your mic — not everything else making noise on your Mac.

  • Pause and resume live recordings

    Mac & iOS

    Step away mid-meeting without losing your place. Pause holds the timer and picks back up exactly where you left off — on Mac and iPhone.

  • Live recordings survive a dropped connection

    Reliability

    Lose signal or lock your phone mid-recording and Noteary reconnects to the same recording in progress instead of cutting it short or starting a duplicate.

Built for working with a team
  • Workspace admin on Mac

    Mac

    Manage your team's workspace — seats, members, and roles — right from the Mac app, no need to switch to a browser.

  • Direct messages within your workspace

    Team

    Message teammates in your organization about a recording without leaving Noteary.

A player you can actually navigate
  • Waveform scrubber in the player

    Player

    See the whole recording at a glance and drag straight to any moment. The quiet gaps and the loud parts are visible, so finding the bit you need no longer means guessing at a plain progress bar.

  • Follow-along transcript

    Player

    As audio plays, the transcript highlights the line being spoken and scrolls to keep it in view. Tap any line to jump playback to that exact word.

  • Keyboard-driven playback

    Accessibility

    Play and pause, skip forward and back, and change speed without touching the mouse. A shortcuts panel lists every key, so you can review a recording hands-on-keys.

Move faster, take it with you
  • Command palette on the web

    Web

    Press ⌘K (or Ctrl-K) to jump to any recording or run a common action from the keyboard — no hunting through menus.

  • Word (.docx) export

    Export

    Download a clean, formatted Word document of any recording — summary, transcript, and action items — alongside the existing Markdown, PDF, and subtitle exports. Ready to drop into a report or share with someone who lives in Word.

Ask your memory, get better answers
  • Relevance-ranked search

    Memory

    Search results are now ordered by how well they actually match what you asked, using full-text ranking — so the moment you’re looking for tends to sit at the top instead of buried mid-list.

  • Faster memory search at scale

    Memory

    “Ask your memory” stays quick even as your library grows into hundreds of recordings, thanks to a new vector index behind the scenes. More history, same instant answers.

Everywhere you already are
  • Spotlight search on Apple devices

    Apple apps

    Recordings are indexed in Spotlight on iPhone and Mac. Search from the home screen or desktop and open the right recording without launching the app first.

  • Offline upload queue on the web

    Reliability

    Start an upload with a shaky connection and it’s saved to a queue that finishes on its own once you’re back online — no lost files, no manual retries.

See it before you sign up
  • Interactive demo
