How to set it up on your phone

iPhone with iOS 18 or later, and Android

An iPhone home screen with the Zoundroom widgets in two sizes: a Record idea button and the latest unsorted ideas, next to the app icon.

The widget on your Home Screen

  • Small, medium or large. Tap the mic and it records; tap again and it stops.
  • The medium and large ones show your latest ideas with their waveform, how many are unsorted and your last project. One tap and it opens.
  • In Zoundroom’s colors, light and dark, and with the tint of your Home Screen too.

On iPhone, also from Control Center and the Action button

  • Add «Record idea» to Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button (iPhone 15 Pro and later).
  • While you record, you see the time and «Stop» on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, if your iPhone has one.
  • You need iOS 18 or later.

On Android: widget and Quick Settings tile

  • The «Record idea» widget and the «Ideas» widget, with your latest ideas and your last project.
  • The «Record idea» tile, in Quick Settings.
  • A notification with the time and «Stop» while you record.
An Android home screen with the Zoundroom widgets to record an idea with one tap and see your latest unsorted ideas, next to the app icon.

Nothing gets lost

  • The idea is saved on your phone and uploads itself the next time you open Zoundroom.
  • It records offline too: the idea waits on your phone until you are back online.
  • If you have reached your plan’s limit, it is not deleted: the app asks you where to save it.

What about Voice Memos?

It records just as fast, but the idea stays in a loose list. In Zoundroom it ends up in your project, with its waveform, ready to move into the song, write the lyrics next to it and share it with your band.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to open the app for it to upload?

Yes. The idea stays on your phone until you open Zoundroom; then it uploads itself to «Ideas», and you also see it in the browser, at app.zoundroom.com.

Which iPhones does it work on?

Any iPhone with iOS 18 or later. The Action button, on iPhone 15 Pro and later.

What about iPad?

You can add the widget. When you tap the mic, Zoundroom opens and starts recording right away.

Does it count toward the limit of the Free plan?

Yes: each idea counts as a file. If you reach the limit, the idea is not lost: it stays on your phone and the app asks you where to save it.

Does it work offline?

Yes. It records without internet; the idea waits on your phone and uploads when you open Zoundroom with a connection.
