1. Download the Rev Voice Recorder App
Download the Rev Voice Recorder app on your iPhone from the App Store or by clicking the button below.

The checkout window will appear where you can confirm the transcription order details and include additional options like timestamps and speaker names.
Tap the big blue Transcribe button to continue. If you’re not already registered or signed in with Rev, you can do so here.
