Minutes for Speakr

Minutes for Speakr is a client for the self-hosted, open-source Speakr transcription and meeting-notes server. It records, uploads, and reviews AI-transcribed meetings — and it talks ONLY to the Speakr instance you configure.

IMPORTANT: This is an independent, unofficial app. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Speakr server project, and it is not a standalone service. You must run (or have access to) your own Speakr server and supply an API token from the server's Account → API Tokens page. Without a reachable Speakr server, the app cannot transcribe anything.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Record meetings live, with a tag picker and pause/resume. Optionally capture the audio other apps are playing (the other side of a call or video meeting) alongside your microphone — Android asks for its consent dialog each time.
• Upload existing audio files (m4a, mp3, wav, and more) with options for minimum/maximum speakers, language, tags, meeting date, and notes.
• Watch transcription progress with live status badges: Pending → Processing → Summarizing → Completed.
• Read the results: a Markdown AI summary, a speaker-attributed transcript, and a chat tab for asking questions about the recording — all in one detail view.
• Review and rename speakers, with autocomplete from your global speaker list and per-segment suggestions.

AUTOMATION

• Background auto-upload watcher (Android and Windows): pick a folder — for example your call recorder's output folder — and new audio files in it upload to your server automatically, then the local copy is deleted so your device does not fill up. Optionally skip and delete recordings shorter than a minimum you set.
• On Android you choose each folder in the system folder picker; Minutes only gets access to the folders you pick, never to the rest of your storage.
• On Android, the watcher can run a scan after a phone call ends, so call recordings are picked up without opening the app.

DESKTOP EXTRAS (WINDOWS)

• Always-on-top mini recorder that survives app switching.
• Auto-record that starts when an application you choose (e.g. your meeting app) begins using the microphone, and offers to stop when it goes quiet.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN

• Your audio and metadata are sent only to the server you configure. There is no hard-coded backend and no third-party telemetry.
• Your server URL and API token are stored in your device's OS secure storage (Android Keystore-backed). They are never logged.
• No analytics SDKs. No advertising. No data shared with the developer.

REQUIREMENTS

• A reachable Speakr server (REST API v1) and an API token from it.
• Microphone permission for live recording.
• For auto-upload only: access to the folders you pick, granted through your device's own folder picker. Minutes requests no other storage access.

Minutes is cross-platform: Android, iOS, and Windows desktop. (iOS builds are not produced in this project's CI.)
