FoCase Note AI Voice Recorder, Transcribe & Summarize, Translation, APP Control with Chat GPT, Magnetic, 64GB Memory, Support 112 Languages, Audio Recorder for Phone Calls, Lectures, Meetings, Black

This is a great recording device - it is small, easy to operate, and works well - picking up my voice very clearly. If it were just a recorder that would be good; but it is much more than that. Downloading an app to your phone enables the recording device and phone to 'talk to each other'. Audio files can be transferred easily (no wires needed) and speedily from the recorder to my phone. From there files can be shared, or transcribed and summarised. The very generous 1800 free minutes a month is more than enough for my needs. The transcription and summaries and mindmaps can also be shared easily - so nothing is locked in the app. I was sceptical whether this product would match the much more expensive competition, but it does a lot better than I anticipated for a very reasonable price. I also needed to contact customer service for help and got a personalised and speedy response to my question. I have no qualms in recommending this product, and, in the unlikely event of anything not working as expected you will find first class help from customer support.

My Take on This Device After a Month of Use I’ve been using this device for over a month, and it’s been a game-changer for keeping all my phone calls and meeting transcriptions organised. Here’s what I think: What I Love Versatility: Great for recording meetings, phone calls, or casual chats where I need to capture key details. It’s become a daily essential for me. 1,800 monthly minutes of transcription is much more than the competition. Ease of Use: The magnetic attachment allowing me to connect directly to my Nothing phone case is super convenient. It's compact and lightweight, so it’s easy to carry around without noticing it. The recording quality has so far been excellent. The audio recording, transcription text and formatted summaries can all be shared to other apps like mail, cloud storage, Microsoft Word, WhatsApp etc. Hidden Features: Beyond the basic summaries, I found that you can export transcriptions to other apps (like ChatGPT). This opens up endless options for refining notes, brainstorming, or creating personalised content. Tech Support: I had an issue backing up files to my computer using the supplied data cable, so I contacted their tech support by email. The next morning I had a reply from their support team and solved it right away. What Could Be Better? Not much to complain about, but I wish I’d opted for the white version to match my phone. Who Is This For? If you’re looking for a reliable, functional, and innovative recording and transcription tool to streamline your workflow, I believe this is it. It’s compact, powerful, and packed with features that make my life easier. Final Thoughts It’s a solid choice if you want to keep your meetings and phone calls transcriptions organised without any hassle. Worth trying out, I don't think you won’t be disappointed.

I picked up this recorder app hoping it would simplify my meeting workflow and ease transcription into ChatGPT. For the first couple of months it worked really well: clear audio, smooth interface, and I could reliably record meetings then export for transcription. It genuinely felt like a “set-and-forget” tool I could depend on. Then, after roughly three months of usage, it suddenly stopped working. The recording just wouldn’t start. I uninstalled the app, re-installed it, rebooted my phone, checked permissions – nothing helped. I tried reaching out to support but found the process frustrating and slow, and I didn’t get to a definitive fix. Because I had grown dependent on it (especially for transcribing conversations), the failure hit me hard. In short: great for a short run, but unreliable over the longer term. If you’re looking for something to become a core part of your workflow, I’d be cautious – and definitely consider exploring other brands or apps that give stronger support and longer-term reliability.

Nice bit of kit, better value for money than the super expensive one, easy to use, small in size so discreet and unimposing. Comes with a charger and a little storage pouch and a mag ring if you need one to secure it to the back of your phone to record calls. Works well for taking notes but I had an issue with registering on the app so I could access all the functionality. Took a bit of tooing and froing over email but eventually got it sorted (the verification kept saying it failed so I couldn’t get any further along the registration process) with the customer service agent setting up the account as I didn’t have a separate phone available to try and complete it myself (she thought it may be the phone that was causing an issue, I have an iPhone XR) but it works fine now, I have registered my account, changed my password and hey presto!!! Fab little gadget that will help me no end!!! Good to note too that the company have no access to the files you create so everything is secure on your phone or file system.

So this device works as advertised however, the chat gpt4 is an internal subscription service anyone need transcribing or summary over 1800minutes per month will need a internal subscription model. I imagined I could just add my chatgpt service, not subscribe to another one. If you're ok with this then this is a great device. Depends on your use case. For me 1800minutes a month is not the right usage model. Compared with the more pricier models this will be what you pay more for no doubt. For the price point this is excellent, just make sure you know what you need first.

Cheap and works but not suitable if you want to stop start stop start..best for continuous recording

The Focase Rec is a versatile and easy-to-use tool (with two buttons: one to record and the other to connect it to the app for transcription). You can also transfer recordings directly via the USB-C cable. It can easily record a phone conversation by attaching it to the back of your smartphone. The AI transcription is sufficient for my needs, and the recognition quality is good. It’s a shame you can’t set a default language; you have to do it every time you import a file. The company has excellent customer service. I had a hardware issue with the device, and Focase sent me a replacement for free because the retailer had gone out of business. I therefore recommend buying it directly from the official store—it’s not more expensive, and the service is very good.

The recording machine is quite portable, also able to attach on the back of my phone. Recording quality are great as well!

Está genial, práctica por su tamaño y funciones. Si bien no es muy sencilla de operar en un inicio, cuenta con manuales y videos para ayudarte en ello.

文字起こしは正直、お遊び程度でした。あまり期待しない方がいいです。しかし、録画はちゃんと出来ていますし、仕事等で聞き忘れ防止には良いです。相手に通知がでないので、失礼でもないですし、活用しています。

Je l'ai prix pour son prix et je l'ai utilisé en réunion avec environ dix personnes qui parlaient en même temps. Enregistrement sans soucis. Il transforme le tout en texte. Il faut le relire car certains mots ne sont pas en français mais quel gain de temps. Il faut également des résumés pas mal. Il faut relire mais c'est beaucoup plus simple de faire des compte rendu. Je recommande.

Convenient to attach to cell phone. The recoding quality is very good , operation is easy. very suitable for student to use in classroom, Highly recommended

Ottimo dispositivo. Funziona bene, fa quello che dice. Ha l’intelligenza artificiale, quindi da un discorso di riconosce le persone, fa una trascrizione del testo, un riassunto preciso e una mappa mentale. Pazzesco!! Ho registrato un colloquio di 30min ed ha capito di cosa stavamo parlando, ha evidenziato le varie problematiche, i punti più importanti, le considerazioni!! Ottimo acquisto, considerando che l’alternativa costa € 169
