Record an entry
Choose somewhere you can speak without recording another person’s private conversation. Open Journal, allow microphone access when asked, and record what you want to keep. Stop when you are done.
You might want to remember a conversation or explain a decision you are trying to make. Say what happened and any details you will need when you read the entry again.
Check the transcript
A transcript is a useful draft of what you said. It can miss a name, a negation, or a date, especially around background noise or changes between languages. Read those details before using the entry to make a task.
Pipwild saves the words you choose to keep. Dictation audio is temporary and is discarded after the words appear. If transcription fails, Retry transcription uses the same audio while the page stays open. Dismiss or reload to discard that attempt.
- Check names, numbers, dates, and words such as “not.”
- Correct the transcript in your journal.
- Keep a reflection as an entry, or review an action draft if you want a next step.
Decide whether to add a task
An entry can stay in your journal without becoming a task. If you recorded how a meeting went, you may only want to keep that account of it.
If the entry mentions something you need to do, you can ask Pipwild to suggest tasks. Check each title, date, and estimate before accepting it. You can edit or reject any suggestion.
Find an earlier entry
Include the details you will want to search for later. If an entry is about an appointment, say which clinic and when you plan to call. You can search those words in Journal.
When you find an old entry, check its date and whether the situation has changed. You can edit it or write a new entry to record an update.
Talk through an entry with Pip
Conversation mode gives you another way to reflect. Tap Record voice, speak, then tap Stop recording. The words appear in your message box, ready to edit or send. You can also type. A reply can be read aloud when you choose that option; spoken replies start turned off.
If you enable optional journal memory, relevant earlier passages can help with a reply. Check the dated sources to see which entry it used. You can inspect remembered passages, forget them, exclude an entry, or turn memory off. A past entry is context for a conversation, and you can correct it when your situation changes.
Know where your recording goes
Stopping the microphone sends its audio to ElevenLabs for transcription. Pipwild removes the temporary server copy when the request ends. Dictation does not save an audio attachment. Optional organizing actions send the selected text to Claude. These actions need a signed-in account, and free daily AI limits apply. The demo supports written journaling without sending recordings to providers.
Keep recordings to content you have permission to share. You can delete an entry or export your account in Settings. The privacy page explains storage, provider handling, and deletion limits.
