How-to guide

Record a meeting with your iPhone and turn it into AI notes

By Rony Fadel, founder of Spiik. Updated November 1, 2026.

The short answer

Open Spiik, tap the microphone, check the language, and tap the red button. You can lock your phone while it records. When you stop, Spiik creates a transcript with speaker labels, and AI Tools turns it into structured notes and a summary.

From meeting to notes

  1. Tell everyone you're recording, and put your iPhone on the table, near the people talking.
  2. Open Spiik, tap the blue microphone, check the language above the red button, and tap the red button.
  3. Lock your phone if you like. The Dynamic Island and Lock Screen show the timer, and let you pause or stop.
  4. Tap ■ to stop and save. Spiik transcribes the recording with its higher-quality transcriber.
  5. Open the recording, use the Speakers menu to rename each person, then tap AI Tools and choose Structured Notes.

Make the notes more useful

  • Ask the chat. Questions like "who is doing what before launch?" get answers from the transcript.
  • Check the source. Tap a line in the transcript to hear what was actually said before you send anything on.
  • Share it. Tap share to send a transcript or PDF, or copy the notes into an email.

Recording a video call instead?

An iPhone only hears what its microphone can pick up. For Zoom, Teams or Google Meet, use the Mac app, which can capture your microphone and system audio with no bot. Here's how to record calls on a Mac.

Recording consent: rules differ by location, and many places require everyone's consent. Saying you're recording at the start of the meeting is the simple way to handle it.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if a phone call comes in while recording?

A phone call, or another app using the microphone, pauses the recording. Spiik resumes on its own when it can. If not, go back to Spiik, tap the red button to continue, and tap ✓ to save.

How long can a meeting be?

Spiik records with no time limit, and Pro transcribes up to 2.5 hours per recording with no monthly minute cap.

Can Spiik tell who said what?

Yes. Spiik separates speakers in the transcript, and you can rename each one. The new name is used throughout that transcript.
