Recording Life... Uninterrupted
SpeakEasy’s “interruption protection” will automatically allow you to continue a recording even if you get interrupted by a phone call. Say you are recording an interview and you get a call that just can’t wait. Feel free to take the call. When you come back, SpeakEasy will automatically prompt you asking if you would like to continue where you left off. The result will be your entire interview in one recording, just as if you had never been interrupted.

Making an important recording even more memorable is a snap with SpeakEasy’s picture attachment feature. Take a picture to go along with your recording, or just choose one from your photo library.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get my recordings off of my phone?
Download
SpeakEasy Connect to easily import your recordings to your iTunes library.
Why doesn't SpeakEasy support emailing recordings?
The iPhone SDK does not natively support emailing attachments. Others get around this by transferring your recordings to their own servers and emailing them from there. We do not like this approach because of the sacrifices that must be made to audio quality to make the file sizes managable and make this possible. Also, many users have privacy concerns related to sending their recordings to a third party to be emailed. We feel that the required sacrifices and user concerns make emailing recordings an undersirable solution to the problem of getting your recordings off your phone. SpeakEasy Connect provides a superior solution that is faster, more reliable, and does not have the limitations of email. That said, we know some users would like to email recordings. Should Apple make emailing attachments possible in future versions of the iPhone SDK, we will add this functionality.
How do I change my SpeakEasy settings?
SpeakEasy settings are located in the main settings area of the phone. Simply open the iPhone settings and you will find the SpeakEasy icon.
How do I save my recordings in their uncompressed format?
SpeakEasy Connect settings are located in the Preferences menu item of the main menu. Simply open the settings and choose to save the uncompressed copy of your recording.
Can I record phone conversations or voicemail?
Apple does not allow for any application sold on the iTunes store to incorporate the ability to record phone conversations.
How do I pause a recording?
While you are recording, simply tap the pause button on the bottom left hand side. You can come back to your recording at a later time.
How do I save my recording as a ringtone?
If your recording is forty seconds or less you can save it as a ringtone in iTunes. This way when you sync, your new ringtone will be available on your iPhone. The next time you run SpeakEasy Connect and are selecting which recordings to transfer to iTunes simply select the Ringtone option.

Fair Quality - 11025Hz

The sound quality of the recording is very clear. Using the iPhone earbuds allows you to record from the integrated mic too. If voice recording is your thing, you cannot go wrong with SpeakEasy. At $1.99, it is worth every paisa/penny."

"There are many audio recorders now available for the iPhone and this application is by far the best of them all. It is the most feature rich, easy to use, and powerful recorder on the phone. I have been using audio recorders from the days of unofficial apps and this one is much better and off to a great start. I have tested the other ones and this one just blows past the rest. So if you are looking for an audio recorder for the iPhone look no further than this app. Very simple to record, very simple to organize – this results in a very powerful combination that I can’t wait to use more and more.
Fantastic job Zarboo Software on one of the best applications on the AppStore!"

"I’ve bought and used all of the recorder apps and if you do recordings for work or are using it for more than just fun then this is your app. You can categorize, name, and do whatever with your recordings very easily."
- ThisIAsk.com
"I work as a private investigator and conducting interviews is a major part of my job. I recently sued the recording during and interview today for one of my clients. The location was less than desirable with a lot of background noise and a fair amount of wind. I was a little worried at first on how well the telephone would pickup the witnesses voice as they spoke very softly. Well, after my 45 minute interview I checked the recording back in my car and was elated at how well the recording came out. I was able to hear and understand everything he said during the interview. This turns the iPhone into a high quality voice recorder and phone in one – wow- "
- Watchmen Investigations
"I’ve used some type of digital voice recorder for the last 15 years…this is the BEST and the CHEAPEST! I love the ability to name my notes and categorize them. This is a must for any businessperson, busy individual, or anyone wanting to be / or needing to be more organized. It really is good. "
