Sound Off: Voice Journal

I love this app, the great functions and usability make it a must for my everyday sound recording. It is really helpful and useful! Would recommend.

I’ve been writing in a physical journal for years and even tried typing out my thoughts however, I kept finding it hard to write everything down because my thoughts are quicker than my hands! Voice journaling has changed everything for me. I get to document how I’m feeling just through speaking. Thank you for this app

The audio recordings are of terrible quality, for an app that has the one job of recording audio, this is a massive fail. The native iOS voice notes app makes recordings crystal clear, while sound off sounds like 1990s telephone. You can’t transcribe recordings, nor can you play them back in an continuous streams. Beware: there is no way to export your recordings. Switching apps then back shows a bug where audio no longer plays. The discover tab is completly blank.

I was recently introduced to this app and can say its the most useful on my phone, I’m used to having a notebook around with me day to day but sound off allows me to record my ideas on the go, couldn’t ask for a more useful app

It’s a really pretty app, which is a nice change from the voice memos app I usually use. I’d love some more features for playback and the option to tag recordings and add photos pleaaaasee! : )

This is an Incredible app, very easy to use!

I really dig this app. Takes journaling from being a thing I plan on doing but never do, to something I do regularly!

I’ve tried to get into writing a physical journal many many times and have never been able to keep up with it because I became too critical of what I was writing or struggled to word it in the way that actually captured how I was feeling and what was going on in my life. As a keen voice noter, it was so much easier to just vent my thoughts out loud and have it captured through using Sound Off. I have found voice journaling has an even more cathartic effect than writing a physical journal and also much easier to maintain as a habit!

As a frequent journaler, adding Sound Off to my routine has completely changed the relationship with how I reflect on my day. Talking has helped me to find words that I often struggle to write. Allowing my thoughts to free-flow makes journaling more efficient, and I’m less judgemental when I look back at my entries. The starters are great prompts for beginners and regulars alike, and have really allowed me to check in with different aspects of my life that I wouldn’t normally touch on. Couldn’t recommend Sound Off enough. Thank you :-)

I experienced some trauma over the summer and have been looking at ways to grapple with my thoughts. Calling this app has is an understatement! Face-to-face therapy sessions weren’t too effective for me, but I came across this app and became obsessed after I finished my very first voice note. I think you’re meant to keep them short and brief (about a minute) but my first voice note was 45 minutes long 🤪 This blew my mind as I don’t normally vocalise these thoughts because I can’t articulate them very well. The app uses prompts at the start of each day to hold your hand through your thinking, making this super accessible in a way that I has never felt before. I’ve always been a sceptic of these kinds of things…but all I can say is try it and you’ll love it! I’m sure everyone experiences it differently but I can’t talk about Sound Off enough. I’m beyond thankful for the team who created this app. Give it a try, fall in love with the warm voice prompts, and feel so much better after venting your thoughts each day 💕
