Love that Earnote writes the lecture notes right on the device, so my recordings never have to leave the machine for a subscription.

I like that the transcription stays on the device and there's no account. I'm on Android though. Whisper runs fine on phones these days, so is an Android version something you'd look at, or does the on-device note writing depend on Apple's own models?

what i always miss is the out loud correction, i say a wrong date then fix it a sentence later and notes never catch which one i meant
