Memo AI 1.2.1 is a refinement release. After the big 1.2 launch we listened to your feedback and focused on making transcription faster and more reliable, refining the new Watch and CarPlay experiences, and smoothing out rough edges throughout the app.
The headline change is under the hood: recordings now use a much more efficient audio format, making files about 10× smaller — so uploads finish faster and transcriptions start sooner.
Transcription & AI
Transcription is faster, smarter, and now covers a lot more languages.
New audio format: ~10× smaller recordings, faster uploads, transcription kicks off sooner
Reworked note summaries — long recordings keep all their substance instead of being over-compressed, and summaries adapt to the recording type (meeting, lecture, dictation, brainstorm)
14 new transcription languages, including Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Arabic, Hindi, Czech, Greek, Vietnamese, Thai, and Hebrew
Chat about a note can now search the full raw transcript, not just the summary
Appending a clarification can now update, merge, or remove existing action items — not just add new ones
Apple Watch & CarPlay
The new Watch and CarPlay experiences got a round of polish.
CarPlay now has separate Stop and Cancel buttons, with a confirmation before discarding
CarPlay fully localized in all 14 languages
Chat
Your conversations can now come with you.

Fixed voice input and table rendering in chat
