Memo 1.108
Memo for iOS 27
You talk, Memo takes the notes. Memo is made independently, by someone who wanted a recorder worth loving in every meeting, and it’s shaped by the people who use it every day, at every text size and in every language. With iOS 27 it lives wherever you are: in Siri, on your wrist and across the fold of iPhone Duo, with Arabic notes made offline, right on iPhone.
