★★☆☆☆

The app essentially nags you into turning privacy settings down. I don't want Recorder to be able to record in the background. I set it this way on purpose. Yet every time I start a recording, I have to go through a pop-up warning me that background recording is blocked. Yeees. Because that's what I set it to. Please allow me to dismiss this pop-up permanently.

It was a great app until I needed to offload the files elsewhere. Unlike on other Android phones, the files are saved in a folder blocked to the user, requiring special permission to read. You can get them by uploading them to their website, and even there you can only download them one by one. An upload and download just to get files in my phone. In the app you can only save one by one too. If another recorder app did this it would probably not be trusted. I'd love to discuss more but 500 limit

randomly lost all my files even after two weeks of normal use on a pixel 10 pro. i was trying to make an audio note like usual and all of a sudden it's like the app reset and it's telling me to use an account. I ALREADY WAS. backup was off because I don't want them stealing my data. looks like this is how they force you to give them access to your files if you don't let them put it on the drive. I am absolutely livid. never had an issue with my pixel 6. done with Google forever unless I get them

The app is great and functions awesomely, but the ecosystem lock-in is a huge issue. I cannot access my files. You can listen to recordings directly on the watch, but they can't be backed up or transferred without a Pixel phone. I use a Samsung phone and lost 20 important recordings because there's no way to get them off the device. Despite Google advertising compatibility with any Android phone, essential features are restricted and trap your data. Non-Pixel users, be warned.
