Watch recordings arrived on the phone as 28-byte header-only m4a files (record() reported success but no audio was ever captured). Activate the audio session via watchOS's async activate(options:), drop the .spokenAudio mode experiment, match the phone recorder's proven AAC settings (44.1 kHz / 48 kbps), and surface silent failures: an AVAudioRecorderDelegate catches encode errors mid-take, and a stop-time guard detects a dead header-only file, deletes it, and shows the failure on the watch instead of shipping an unplayable note to the phone.

Fixed watch voice notes arriving on the iPhone without audio, so they couldn't be played or transcribed
Transcription now supports many more languages, including Russian, Ukrainian, and Polish
A single toolbar button now starts a new note that opens straight to typing, with voice recording just one tap away
Search now has its own tab in the bottom tab bar
Record voice notes that are transcribed to text right on your device, with the original audio kept alongside the note for playback
Choose the languages you speak in Settings and transcription picks the right one automatically, or re-transcribe any note in another language
A new Apple Watch app and watch-face complication let you capture voice notes from your wrist and send them to your iPhone automatically
First version: take quick text notes that remember where and when they were taken, see the most relevant ones resurface when you return to the same place, organize with tags, search everything, and sync across iPhone and Mac through iCloud
Back up all notes to a single file and restore from it, with automatic safety backups before every restore
