About this app
Sounds Clearer. Records Cleanly. Translates and Outputs Live! Mic Facing turns your iPhone into a portable voice studio. Amplify your voice across a room, capture clean recordings, transcribe and translate — and never send a byte off the device. LIVE AMPLIFICATION, SHAPED TO YOUR VOICE Thirteen built-in presets — Flat, Podcast, Clean Voice, Hearing Assist, Office, Whisper Boost, Deep Voice, Bright Voice, Megaphone, Lecture Hall, Music, Bass Reduce, Treble Reduce — plus unlimited custom presets. A half-circle gain slider with haptic detents at 2.5×, 5×, 7.5×, and 10× lets you dial in level by feel. Five-band EQ, compressor, and noise gate give you studio-grade control. Optional smart room detection suggests Quiet, Normal, Noisy, or Loud profiles. RECORDING WITH ICLOUD SYNC Tap Record for a clean take. Recordings continue across screen locks, route changes, and interruptions. Files save as plain audio (M4A, WAV, AIFF, CAF) into your private iCloud Drive container — portable, openable in any audio app, no proprietary database. ON-DEVICE TRANSCRIPTION AND AI SUMMARY Auto-transcribe runs after each recording (optional). Tap a word to seek to that moment. AI summaries are generated locally with Apple's on-device Foundation Models on Apple Intelligence-capable devices. LIVE TRANSLATION, TWO WAYS Speak and see your words translated in real time. Conversation mode splits the screen so two people facing each other can each tap to talk and read the result in their own language. BUILT FOR iPHONE DUO Unfold iPhone Duo for two-column layouts: the gain dial beside live captions and presets, translation side by side, conversation mode with each person on their own half, and transcripts next to the player and waveform. Fold it closed and the outer screen becomes a focused recorder with a big timer and Stop button. EXTERNAL USB-C MIC SUPPORT Plug in a USB-C mic and Mic Facing routes input automatically. The UI tints green so you know your external mic is active. BUILT FOR iOS 27 Liquid Glass styling, Live Activities with recording duration on the lock screen, full Dynamic Island support, and a level visualizer that responds in real time. Optional Face ID lock keeps your library private. PRIVACY-FIRST No accounts. No analytics. No third-party SDKs. No servers. Microphone audio, transcripts, summaries, and translations are processed locally using Apple's frameworks. Recordings live only on your device and in your iCloud Drive.
