Hi Julie,
I would put in another recommendation for you to consider List
Recorder. It is designed completely with the Voice Over user in mind so it has
ways of controlling recording and play back in several ways including motions
and gestures so you don't need to listen for buttons to stop a recording for
example. Also, it is very powerful with regard to easy organization of
recordings. It is a app with a lot of capabilities and most of us are not
using it to it's full potential. I have Voxie Pro but other then making a
quick recording I don't find it useful. I instead use list Recorder to store
all kinds of recorded information all organized neatly into list and sub lists.
So weather I'm looking for my shopping list, the audio description of my
complicated stereo, or a recipe . I can easily find things or add the next
recording to a list.
You also have many ways to move recordings off the phone and can also back up
all the recordings to your computer.
