Scribe Local is now Sentito. The name changes in the next release; existing installs and licence keys keep working.

What’s new in 1.3.0

November 9, 2026

  • The iPhone and iPad app has a new look, in light and dark, and follows your system appearance.
  • In the iPhone and iPad app, recording sits in a bar above the tabs on every screen, and opens a sheet with the live transcript, notes and marks.
  • Start a recording on the iPhone from Control Center, the Lock Screen, the Action button, or Siri and Shortcuts.
  • The iPhone and iPad app shows the meeting that’s on now or up next from your calendar, with a button to record it.
  • A recording on the iPhone and iPad opens on its summary, with action items, decisions, topics and talk time, and the transcript groups each speaker’s lines together.
  • The iPhone and iPad app can skip silences during playback, translate a transcript and its summary into another language, and change the server’s processing schedule.
  • Ask on the iPhone and iPad links each answer to the moments it came from, and keeps your question if something goes wrong. Search filters by time, speaker and folder.
  • Put recordings in folders, from the iPhone and iPad app. Search, Ask and exports can be limited to a folder.
  • Export every recording, or one tag or folder, as one zip from the iPhone and iPad app, even from a large library.
  • On an iPad at full width, the library and a recording sit side by side, with the summary beside the transcript.
  • The server translates the whole transcript, not only the summary, and keeps the translation with the recording.
  • The web app groups each speaker’s lines in the transcript, with a setting to turn it off, and exports follow the setting.
  • The owner can read and download the server’s logs in the web app’s Settings, with passwords and tokens removed.
  • Scribe Server checks once a day whether its licence key was revoked, and only a clear answer from the licence service counts.
  • Scribe Server sends a short report when a trial starts, when a key is activated, and when a trial ends, with no personal data. You can turn this off on the Licence screen.

  • iPhone and iPad

    Free, with no key. It records meetings to your server and shows the words as they’re said, and pairs with a QR code from the Sentito Server app. It needs iOS 18 or later.

    Not on the App Store yet

  • Web app

    Free, with no key, and nothing to download: your server serves it to your browsers, at home and through your router from outside. Read, search and ask questions of every meeting from any computer, and upload recordings made somewhere else.

    Comes with the server

Using a license key

A key covers 2 servers. In the Sentito Server app, open Licence, paste your key, then choose Activate. After the 14-day trial, a server without a key still accepts recordings and shows every transcript; only processing waits for the key.

Sentito isn’t on sale yet. What has to be done first.

Check for updates in the app reads the latest release. When there’s a newer version, the app says so and links to this page. It doesn’t download or install anything itself.

Earlier versions

Only 1.3.0 can be downloaded here. Earlier versions’ installers are no longer published.

1.2.0

November 6, 2026

  • After you install a newer Scribe Server, its window offers to update the server. The old server stays in place until the new one answers, and if the update fails, the old one is put back and started. Updating never removes your recordings or settings, and there’s no offer while the service is paused.
  • A recording now completes only when all of it is on the server, and the server finishes recordings the iPhone and iPad app left unfinished. The app finishes each piece of audio before it uploads it, and the server refuses an unfinished piece.
  • The iPhone and iPad app tells you when an upload finishes in the background, and checks back later for the finished transcript.
  • Send feedback from the iPhone and iPad app: from Settings, by shaking the device, or with Command-Shift-F on an iPad keyboard.
  • Once you name a speaker, the summary uses that name, and correcting the transcript no longer writes “Speaker 1” in place of a name.
  • The built-in template that builds the summary around your notes no longer repeats the transcript, and a recording with no notes gets the general template instead.
  • The meeting page, exports and summaries sent by email or webhook use the recording’s own title first.
  • The dashboard no longer asks for models that are already on your computer.
  • A tall sheet stays inside the window and its body scrolls, and each search field shows one clear button.
  • The web app and the install scripts name the real pairing buttons, and no longer say the iPhone app is on the App Store.
  • The logo says Scribe Local in the web app and in Scribe Server, and it’s larger in the web app’s sidebar.

1.1.0

November 1, 2026

  • Live transcription. While the iPhone or iPad app records, words show up a second or two after they’re spoken. Transcribing in pieces of 10 seconds to 2 minutes is still there as a setting, and the iPhone and iPad app uses 30-second pieces with a server older than 1.1.0.
  • Record a meeting on the computer running Scribe Server: your microphone and the computer’s own sound, so both sides of a call, with no bot joining the meeting. Start and stop it from the window, or from the menu bar on a Mac and the tray on Windows, type notes as you go, and it keeps recording if you close the window. On a Mac, recording the computer’s sound needs macOS 14.6 or later.
  • In meetings recorded on the computer, the voice on your microphone is labeled as you, and Scribe Local then recognizes you in recordings from your phone too.
  • The desktop app can suggest recording when another app starts using the microphone. It’s off unless you turn it on, and it never records by itself.
  • On a Mac, the desktop app names a recording after the meeting in your calendar.
  • Scribe Local is now an iPad app as well as an iPhone app, with a sidebar, the library and a recording side by side, a wide Record screen, and Split View.
  • Type notes while you record. They’re kept at the moment you typed them, tapping one plays the audio from there, and search and Ask find them.
  • Summary templates. Write your own, pick one as the default, or use the built-in one that builds the summary around the notes you typed.
  • Custom vocabulary. Give Scribe Local up to 200 names and terms and it fixes their spelling in your transcripts.
  • Choose the spoken language of a recording, or let Scribe Local detect it, and the summary is written in that language.
  • Share a recording with a read-only link. It shows the summary, and the transcript and audio if you choose. A link lasts a day, a week or a month, or until you revoke it, and you can revoke one at once. A link opens from outside your network only if you’ve set up remote access.
  • Export a recording as Markdown, plain text, SRT, WebVTT, Word or PDF, or export every recording at once as a zip from the web app.
  • Have the summary sent when a recording is ready: by email through your own mail server, or to a webhook, such as a Slack channel. It’s off unless you set it up, in the web app.
  • A mind map of each summary, in the web app and the iPhone and iPad app, that you can copy, download or share as Markdown.
  • In the iPhone and iPad app, rename a recording, move a line or part of one to a different speaker, and rename a speaker with a tap. The app also counts the speakers itself unless you set a number.
  • When you name speakers in the iPhone and iPad app, the people invited to the meeting in your calendar are offered first, for recordings from the phone and from a Mac.
  • On the iPhone and iPad: share audio or video to Scribe Local from Voice Memos, Files, Photos and other apps, add a summary’s action items to Reminders, and get a reminder to record when a meeting in your calendar starts.
  • The iPhone and iPad app tells you when a transcript is ready. The notice comes when iOS next lets the app check in, so it can take a while.
  • Pause and resume the Scribe Local service from the desktop app, or from its menu bar or tray icon. A paused service stays off across restarts until you resume it.
  • An idle server now uses almost no memory. The speech models, the search model and the language model load when there’s work and unload two minutes after it’s done, and Scribe Local runs at below-normal priority so the rest of your computer comes first.
  • The Remote screen now tests a port forward you set up by hand, instead of always saying one is needed.
  • Pairing a phone is by QR code or typed code only. The old connect-by-address options are gone from the iPhone and iPad app’s Settings.
  • On Windows, setup no longer hangs and the service starts reliably. Setup shows its progress as it runs and says clearly what went wrong if it fails, and the service is let through the firewall.
  • The speech models load as soon as they finish downloading, with no restart, and the desktop app’s window is bigger.
  • Your existing server’s database is upgraded in place the first time 1.1.0 starts.

1.0.1

October 25, 2026

  • The first Windows build: an installer and an MSI for 64-bit Windows. Both are unsigned, so Windows may warn about an unrecognized publisher.
  • The Windows installer brings the runtime libraries Scribe Local needs, so a new Windows PC needs nothing else installed first.

1.0.0

October 25, 2026

  • First release, for Macs with Apple silicon.
  • Scribe Server installs the server as a service with its own database and language model, downloads the speech models, and looks after the license, remote access and phone pairing.
  • Transcripts with speaker labels and summaries, search across every meeting by meaning, and Ask for questions in plain English, all run on your server.
  • The free iPhone app, not on the App Store yet, pairs with a QR code and records meetings to your server. The web app your server shows is free too, for reading, searching, asking and uploading.
  • Reach your server away from home through your own router or your own domain, with no relay.
  • The disk image is signed and notarized by Apple.
