Description
Tapedeck is a private voice recorder for iPhone built around one idea: your recording should survive whatever happens. Audio is continuously saved to disk, so a crash or dead battery won’t wipe the whole session. Record for free with no time limits, then transcribe and search recordings entirely on-device. No account, no cloud uploads, and your audio stays on your phone.

Could you build this?
Partial Continuous crash-proof low-latency disk flushing of audio on iOS combined with background execution and on-device offline ML speech recognition requires nuanced native AVFoundation and CoreAudio expertise.
What it would actually take: A production build requires native Swift using AVAudioEngine or Audio Queue Services configured to stream PCM buffers directly into incremental audio file containers (like CAF or segmented WAV) to prevent header corruption on abnormal termination. Transcription requires embedding Whisper.cpp or utilizing Apple's Speech/CoreML frameworks while keeping memory usage under iOS watchdog limits. It requires real-time native audio engineering and on-device ML deployment experience.
