FIELDRECORDER

Record what matters. Mark key moments. Find them later.

FieldRecorder is a private voice recorder for interviews, notes, lectures, research, and field audio. Tap MARK whenever something important happens — every marker is timestamped so you can jump back to it instead of scrubbing through the whole recording.

What it does

Tap MARK while recording

Save key moments with precise timestamps as they happen. Add a note, color-tag the marker, and keep going. Works from the lockscreen notification too.

Jump back instantly

Open a recording and the markers are right there as a sortable list. Tap one, playback seeks. No scrubbing, no guessing.

Organize by project

Sort recordings into projects — interviews, lectures, field trips, your own taxonomy. Inbox catches everything that isn't filed yet.

Export your timeline

Send markers to Markdown for Obsidian or Notion, CSV for spreadsheets, SRT for video editors, or just hand off the audio file itself.

Background-safe recording

Foreground service on Android keeps capture going with the screen off, the phone locked, or another app in front. The active-recording notification stays accessible.

Private by design

Your audio stays on your phone. No account, no upload, no analytics by default. The microphone is the only sensitive permission FieldRecorder asks for.
