Reviews for Field Recorder

I like this app and would probably give it 5 stars, but it wants to open every time I plug in my usb-c headset, and there's only "always open app" and "cancel," no option to never open automatically. And unfortunately, I can't find any option in the app or my Android settings that will turn that off. I'll of course change my rating if there's a way to do it that I'm missing!

This is the best recording app for users who want more control. Using is since long time.

Excellent app! When coupled with my dynamic mic. Seriously, you will not find an app that records better audio than this on your phone or tablet. Please consider adding 192kbps CBR controls. And a volume set for db. Constant bit rate controls would be grand!

What a good app for field recordings!!! But i found a small flaw. After i used the app and closed it, my phone audio stop working, for example when i watch a video on YouTube. The audio won't come out anymore and i need to restart my phone to be able to heard any sound. Is there any way to fix it?

I was hoping for a simple recorder with a recording level control for loud environments. While there are some settings that may activate limiting, there doesn't seem to be a place to adjust it. There is no actual manual, just a lot of useless, cumbersome stuff in the settings. Should have spent the $6 somewhere else.

this is an incredible welldone app that gives me a full field recorder (used with a headset-splitter-adapter) in my phone. on my old galaxy s3 it was a bit laggy (in terms of loading and maybe half a second before recording runs on) but with no quality loss or whatever. with a new, a year old cheap redmi, those tiny lag is gone completly. it is really easy to use and gives you a broad variety of functions like waveform, limiter, AUDIO MONITORING (so you can hear what your mic hear through headphones, which is esentially!) - functions you find on higher class field recorder, which physicly begin at 150 euro if you want to get this seriousness. a charme for a young poor filmer. the only question i have, due to new headphones: it is possible to use bluetooth headphones with it?

Have spent the last couple of hours trying out tons of audio recorders, they're all too basic, and nearly all of them mono only. This is the only one that lets you record raw audio from all the available microphones on your device, in stereo, and the only one that lets you turn off the default noise gate and echo suppression that renders all the other apps useless for field recording. There are tons of options, limiter, soft clip, EQ. Brilliant. Slightly ugly UI but who cares. ❤️

The app is really good and practical. I have two big problems though: 1. I cannot record at 24 bits, even though my setup can record at 24 bits: the same hardware configuration with another app is able to record at 24 bits. Which setting do you need to record at 24 bits? 2. After your answer I realized that the Spectrum view is available only during recording, while I was expecting to be available during playback too... so I guess it is not a problem. The issue 1. still a big problem for me, as it was one of the main reason to buy this app.

This is what happens when you understand precisely what an end-user needs - and when you are on a platform that let's you 'under the bonnet'. By a distance the best audio recorder for Android. Will be rolling this out to my radio field reporters. (It is so good it makes other apps work properly... Put it in Pause and hey presto, your expensive external mic becomes available to Chrome!)

I needed a reliable alternative to Neutron Audio Recorder. This works fantastic on numerous devices! Would Love to see this app upgraded to record at 32bit. This app has worked consistently for several months now. NOTE: When using a 32bit HiFi USB-C DAC ( Kiwi Ears Allegro ) Set IN:MIC C , this is the correct configuration to record audio and monitor ( KZ ZAX IEM no mic / moto g stylus 2024 built in mic )
