VoiceDraft v1.1: Native iOS, Web App, and Browser Extension
We’re excited to announce VoiceDraft v1.1, a major update that transforms VoiceDraft from a simple voice memo tool into a full multi-platform suite for turning recordings into structured, actionable documents using AI.
Record a meeting, lecture, brainstorm, or quick thought, and get back polished meeting notes, emails, action items, journal entries, and more in seconds.
What’s New in v1.1
Native iOS App: Built from Scratch in SwiftUI
The iOS app has been completely rewritten from the ground up in Swift and SwiftUI for iOS 17+. This isn’t a wrapper or a port. It’s a fully native experience built with modern Swift concurrency (async/await, Actors) and Observable state management for a faster, more responsive interface with deep platform integration.
Highlights:
- Home Screen Widgets: Start recording instantly from your home screen or lock screen with the Quick Record widget, or view your latest memos at a glance with the Recent Memos widget. Available in small, medium, large, and lock screen sizes.
- High-quality recording with live waveform visualization
- Import audio and video files from your device or media library
- Resumable uploads with progress tracking, automatic retry, and background upload support
- Biometric authentication: Face ID and Touch ID support
- Share Extension: Send audio and video files from other apps directly into VoiceDraft for processing
- Sign in with Apple alongside Clerk-based authentication

Privacy First
VoiceDraft is built around a core principle: your audio and video files are never stored permanently. Media is processed, transcribed, and deleted. Only text outputs are saved. A 24-hour R2 lifecycle policy acts as a safety net to ensure nothing lingers.

Built on Cloudflare
The entire backend runs on Cloudflare Workers for global edge performance, with D1 (SQLite) for the database, R2 for object storage, KV for caching, and Durable Objects for FFmpeg audio extraction from video files. Async queue processing handles large files over 100MB seamlessly.
VoiceDraft v1.1 is available now. Try it on iOS or on the web at voicedraft-api.com.
