What it does

Tap record, and talk.

Gist writes up what you said as a clean note — a clear title with your key points and action items pulled out as a list — ready to share to your notes app, email, or chat. The whole thing happens on your phone, so nothing you record is ever uploaded. After a one-time setup it works completely offline. Your thoughts stay yours.

  • 100% on your phone — recording, transcription and note-writing all run on the device
  • No account, no cloud, no tracking, no ads
  • Works offline after a one-time setup download
  • Faithful, not made up — it structures only what you actually said
  • A clear title plus bullet points, ready for the share sheet
  • Editable, with the raw transcript one tap away
Private by design

Nothing leaves the device.

Everything runs locally — the speech-to-text and the on-device language model that writes your notes both work on the phone itself. The only time Gist touches the internet is a one-time download of those models when you first set it up. After that, your voice and your notes never leave the device. Read the full privacy policy →

Requirements

  • Android 8.0 or newer (64-bit phone)
  • About 2 GB free storage for the one-time setup download
  • Wi-Fi recommended for that first-run setup

A few taps and you’re in.

Gist isn’t on the Play Store yet, so you install it directly:

  2. Open the downloaded file and tap Install.
  3. Open Gist and follow the one-time setup. That’s it.
