Speak or type a thought, file it under Personal or Work, then find it later with search, favorites, and recents — without turning every idea into a meeting transcript.
Short facts from the shipping product — not slogans.
MemoryDock is a voice notes app for iPhone that treats the saved note — not a long audio file — as the unit of memory. Capture quickly, organize simply, retrieve later.
Three steps. No ceremony.
Speak on iPhone or type a note. Review the text, adjust the title or category if needed, then save.
File under Personal or Work. Each workspace has twelve categories so related notes stay grouped.
Find notes with search, pin favorites, jump to recents, or open the Memory Vault archive when you need older items.
A short founder explainer from Cheikh Gueye — how MemoryDock helps you capture what matters and find it later.

Only capabilities present in the shipping product.
On supported iPhones, spoken input becomes editable text primarily through Apple’s speech-recognition path. Availability depends on device capabilities, permissions, and Apple speech features.
Type when speaking is inconvenient. Both paths save as searchable note text — MemoryDock does not intentionally keep raw mic audio as the memory item.
Switch workspaces without mixing contexts. Personal and Work each expose a 12-category taxonomy tuned to that context.
Retrieval is part of the core loop: search the library, keep favorites close, and reopen recent notes quickly.
Archive notes you do not need on the main home surface while keeping them available later.
Lock individual notes on iPhone with device-owner authentication. This is access control, not end-to-end encryption. Web unlock is not implemented in v1.
Use the app in English or French. Notes can be stamped with language at creation for language-scoped browsing.
Signed-in notes sync through your MemoryDock account so the iPhone app and web companion can share the same library when online.

Buyer guidance based on the product’s actual capture and organization model.
Capture a follow-up, expense detail, or client note in the moment, then keep Work separate from Personal without opening a meeting tool.
Two workspaces with category sets reduce the “everything in one dump” problem common in generic notes apps.
Switch app language and keep language-stamped notes easier to browse in the language you used when you captured them.
Lock sensitive notes on iPhone with device authentication. Raw microphone audio is not intentionally stored as the saved memory.
If the job is “get this thought down now and find it later,” MemoryDock is built for that loop.
If you need hour-long meeting transcripts, speaker diarization, or a full project/task system, choose a meeting notetaker or task manager instead.

MemoryDock is a voice notes app for iPhone that also supports typed notes. You capture a thought by voice or text, organize it under Personal or Work categories, then find it later with search, favorites, recents, or the Memory Vault archive. A companion web app is available for signed-in account access.
MemoryDock downloads free on the App Store and uses in-app purchases for MemoryDock Pro. Current US list prices are $3.99 per month, $19.99 per year, or $39.99 lifetime. Apple may show localized prices at checkout.
Yes. MemoryDock Lifetime is a one-time, non-renewing App Store purchase currently listed at $39.99 USD. It is not an auto-renewable subscription.
Yes on supported iPhones with an active plan. Spoken input is converted to editable text primarily through Apple’s speech-recognition framework. You can review and edit the transcript before saving. Typed capture is also available.
Yes on iPhone. Lock Memory uses Apple device-owner authentication (Face ID or Touch ID where supported, with device passcode fallback). MemoryDock does not store biometric templates and receives only success or failure. Locked previews are hidden. Web unlock is not implemented in v1.
Yes. Sign in at memorydockapp.com/app with the same MemoryDock account used on iPhone. Purchases and subscription management are handled in the iOS app through Apple.
Yes. MemoryDock includes English and French app language support. Notes can be stamped with language at creation for language-scoped retrieval.
Apple Voice Memos is built around audio recordings you can play back, edit, and (on supported devices) transcribe. MemoryDock is built around saved note text from voice or typing, with Personal/Work organization, categories, search, favorites, vault archive, and optional per-note lock.
Saved note text is stored in your signed-in MemoryDock cloud account so you can access memories across supported devices. MemoryDock does not intentionally save raw microphone audio as a permanent memory item. Optional cloud AI features are off by default.
MemoryDock is not an offline-first notebook. Saving notes requires reachable account connectivity. Voice transcription uses Apple speech recognition and may depend on device capabilities, on-device speech assets, permissions, and network conditions. Typed capture still requires a connection to save.
