Recording radio on your iPhone has never been easier! With the help of the Apple Voice Memos app, you can capture streaming audio recording from any radio broadcast or other source of video and audio. You don’t need to use a third-party app or special equipment – the recording process is simple and free. Here’s what you need to know about using the iPhone Voice Memos app to record radio broadcasts.
Installing and Setting Up Voice Memos App
There’s no need to download the Voice Memos app. Since the Voice Memos app comes built into your iPhone by default, there’s no need to install Voice Memos. Although no installation is required, you might want to move it from the Utilities folder to your home screen for easy access.
There’s no need to set up Voice Memos either. It’s already set up and ready for you to use!
Recording Audio with Voice Memos
To start recording on iPhone, open the Voice Memos app and press the Voice Memos record button (it looks like a red circle). This will initiate iPhone audio recording. When you’re finished, simply press the same button to stop recording and save it as an audio file. You can record radio broadcasts as they are playing.
Editing Your Recordings
If you want to edit Voice Memos recordings or add effects, you can do that too! The Voice Memos app has basic editing capabilities, so you can trim recordings and remove unwanted sections. Voice Memos’s editing features include only basic audio editing, though; if you want to edit or adjust your recordings with advanced effects, you might need a more powerful audio editor.
To edit a recording, follow these steps:
- Click on a recording.
- Click on the button that looks like three blue dots in a blue circle.
- Click on Edit Recording.
- Click on the crop icon on the top right.
- Use the slider to cut out parts of your recording.
- Click on Trim, Save, and Done to save.
Exporting Recordings
There’s no need to manually save a recording on iPhone, as it will save it automatically. However, you should change the name of the recording from the default, so you can find it with ease later.
The audio file format is the M4A file format. Various file type converters are available online that can help you export Voice Memos M4A recordings to different file formats. CloudConvert is a good option.
The best way to export audio to other Apple devices is to sign in with the same iCloud account on all your devices, as your recordings on your iPhone will show up automatically on any device signed in with the same iCloud account. However, you can also use a USB cable to transfer audio files manually to a Windows PC, for example.
Advanced Recording Options
In addition to Voice Memos, you can download advanced audio recorder apps. They may offer features such as timer control recording, multi-track recording, and other advanced recording features.
Each app is different and offers different features, but one of the best recorder apps is Voice Record Pro. It allows you to record audio in different file formats, use audio detection so that it only records when there is sound detected, and apply audio effects while recording.
Recording Streaming Audio on iPhone
You can actually record streaming audio on an iPhone. In other words, even if the audio is coming from your iPhone itself and not from an external source, you can record it with stream recording. However, Voice Memos doesn’t have a stream capture feature, so you’ll need to use another app.
Instead, you can use your iPhone’s built-in screen recorder for iPhone streaming audio recording. You can add it to your Control Center in your Control Center settings, located in your phone’s settings. Then, you can swipe up to open the Control Center and start recording your screen as you are streaming. If you only want the audio, you can use an online tool to convert video to MP3.
Recording a Live Stream on iPhone
You can also record live streams on your iPhone. While there are various screen recorder apps on the market, you really only need to use your iPhone’s built-in screen recorder. Add it to the Control Center so you can record your screen easily for live stream captures. Note that some apps, like Netflix, may block screen recording.
Recommended Recording Apps
There are many Voice Memos alternatives you can use if you find that Voice Memos’s features aren’t sufficient for your purposes. Another one of the best audio recording apps is Recorder Plus Voice Recorder. Recorder Plus’ features include built-in variable file formats to choose from, audio file editing, and one-tap recording. Easy Voice Recorder is another app I recommend.
Once you have recorded audio files, you can use other apps for editing and sharing them. The AudioShare app is an excellent audio file management app for exporting, zipping, unzipping, converting, and doing other functions with audio files.
I’d also like to take the time to include a brief Notta app review. Notta is an app that will record and transcribe audio, podcasts, speeches, meetings, and more in real time. It harnesses the power of AI to offer excellent voice-to-text features.
Conclusion
iPhone audio recording is made easy with the Voice Memos app. Voice Memos’ benefits include easy recording and trimming. However, for creative audio projects, you might want to download an advanced recorder app. We’ve mentioned several in this article. We hope you enjoyed our iPhone recording tips!
