Hi, one other app to consider is Dropvox. Note the V instead of the B. This is a recording app which saves your recordings in your Dropbox folder. It is a bit more Voice Over friendly, but doesn't have the flexibility in recording qualities as Voxie does. Speaking of Voxie? $6.99? When I got it a couple of years back it was $2.99. Let me check the link to make sure it's the right one. OK, found it for $4.99 plus tax of course. The link is below.

Oh, and I went ahead and checked on Dropvox, and its link follows.

Thanks Raul, this is really helpful.  Yes, while it makes intuitive sense
that developers would want to prevent VO chatter from contaminating a
recording (and as a user, it is damn beneficial to the end product), it also
makes for a very anxious and mysterious user experience, particularly for a
relative clutz like me who isn't very intuitive about where the important
buttons like "stop" might be hiding in the silence.

Voxie sounds like it's found some clever ways of dealing with this though,
so I'll give it a go.  I see it costs $6, so I hope it's a good investment!

Still open for competition though...

And while on the subject, how have people found iphone's inbuilt voice memos
as a recorder?

Hi, the reason VO goes seemingly silent is because it helps prevent from it
speaking on your recordings. The trouble is that if you don't know where on
the screen the stop button is, that can be a bit disconcerting and leave you
out at sea with no paddles. Or so it feels that way. So, here is what I
recommend. Voxie Pro by Bottle Rocket. This also makes VO go totally quiet,
but if you record in express mode, you can shake phone to start and shake
once again to stop. Plus a tone is played when it starts and stops
recording. Plus, if the shaking isn't working, or you don't want to do that,
there is only one button in the middle of the screen, so if VO is silent
because it's recording, just touch the middle of the screen once, then
double tap like a normal button and the recording will stop. Voxie has the
ability to record in 16Khz, 22Khz and 44Khz to make the quality from lowest
to highest. You can save the recordings to your computer via iTunes file
sharing or via the built-in web browser and get them from your pc browser
that way. There are a ton of recording apps, but this one is the first one
which comes to mind, and is my favorite. It doesn't have dropbox like some
others do, but i still use this one over most on my iPhone 4s. It should
work on the 5 just as good.

Hi all.

Just wondering if anyone can recommend me a good, VO-accessible, voice
recorder ap for Iphone 5?  I have experimented with several, with
results ranging from average (basic workability) to totally unusable
and/or totally silent, with VO going into apparent paralysis and
causing me to do likewise.  I am after something with as clear as
possible recording quality, to be used for recording meetings etc, and
which allows for easy transfer of the digital files onto my PC.  Any
experiences would be appreciated.

Regards,

Julie
