Feature Ideas
Submit IdeaListen to meetings that are via headset
Most of my meetings are virtual and I'm wearing a headset. This makes pocket way less useful for me as it's unable to record meetings that are not happening live or if it cannot hear the other people speak. A pocket app that can listen in on meetings or be able to import transcripts would be awesome

Lifetime Pocket Pro subscription
Can we get an option to buy a lifetime subscription at a deal to pocket pro as early adopters? I see value in the upgrade but hate having subscription fees. Many other products I have used had the lifetime option and got all the features on their device and devices they upgraded to later. Let’s go for premium so we can refer even more to the service and device!!

Setting to auto delete “zero content” recordings
It’s possible to bump the record button or even click to record and then change your mind and cancel before any content is recorded. The system still processes and saves this. It would be good to have a setting that automatically deletes this if no content was recorded or a recording is less than “0” seconds long. For future hardware, it might be good to have a toggle lock to avoided accidental button presses.

Dark Mode for Pocket App
Why This Matters, I love what Pocket is doing, it’s a brilliant tool that’s become part of my workflow. But after using it for a few hours, especially at night or in low-light environments, the bright white interface can be tough on the eyes. For people like me who deal with photo sensitivity or light-triggered eye strain, a Dark Mode isn’t just a preference, it’s a necessity. It allows us to stay productive, focused, and comfortable without having to step away because of light fatigue. Why It’s Worth Adding • Dark mode improves accessibility for users with light sensitivity. • It reduces glare and blue light strain, especially during long sessions. • It matches the user experience expectations set by most modern productivity tools today. • It would make the Pocket app more inclusive while appealing to design-conscious and night-owl users alike. The Ask Let’s get Dark Mode on the roadmap! It’s one of those “quality-of-life” upgrades that everyone benefits from, plus, it’s Sexy, whether you’re working late, presenting in a dim setting, or just prefer a calmer interface. If you’d like to see this happen too, upvote this suggestion so the dev team can prioritize it sooner. Every click helps push this closer to implementation. Let’s make the Pocket app easier on the eyes. Thank you 🙏

Sync Over WiFi (Pocket Device -> Your WiFi Router)
It would be really awesome if we could configure an access point for pocket to connect to (e.g., your home’s wireless router) for auto syncing to pocket cloud instead of directly to your phone via the app. This would be significantly easier, faster, and additionally an option to have it always sync or on while charging would be incredible! Yeah, battery life would probably take a hit but worth it in my opinion. I saw other idea posts here but they seemed to just be talking about connecting the device to the mobile app via WiFi and NOT the pocket device itself connecting to an access point. Unless I’m missing some aspect of security or hardware limitations, this seems like it would benefit a lot of pocket users who aren’t around their phone all day.

Sync to Google Drive?
Hello recently, my trial from being an early buyer ran out, and I the cost of the , so I’m looking for a way to continue using it without losing information every 14 days. Since I already a Google account for my business and have plenty of storage there I was hoping there might be an option coming, allowing us to in the to Google Drive option where load recordings and then relevant transcriptions or maps that were generated into the same folder added bonus would be to do this with iCloud as well with my limited knowledge I feel like this would be a pretty useful feature with pretty minimal time and effort expended as a developer— but again my limited knowledge may not be correct here.

Faster & Automatic sync & Processing
The biggest roadblock to liking the pocket app and recommending it to others is the fact that it's so slow (It's so time consuming, it feels like a bug). that could be fixed by adding background syncing, that happens automatically. and automatically processing each recording. So that the first time I need to reference a recording I can just open it up and immediately see all of its processed value. currently when I first need to reference a recording, have to go through a 20 minute waiting process that involves manually initializing a sink, trying multiple times to get Wi-Fi sync to work, waiting forever for the sink to happen, then opening the recording, and waiting all over again for the processing and transcription of that particular recording... it weighs so much time and it's really frustrating.

Widgets - Phone/Watch/Glasses to record
Have widgets to record - phone/tablet home screen, watch, glasses etc that would respond by click or audio input - "Hey Pocket - Start Recording" and "Hey Pocket - End Recording"

Phone/Tablet Cable Uploading Option
You recently provided a solution to attach the pocket device to computer and upload via cable which worked perfectly and was FAST. Mobile Devices: I'd love to just take my USB-C cable, plug into my iPhone and Pocket and then have a "Cable Sync" option build directly into the app. Tablet Devices: Allow the use to upload via cable in Browser on tablets the same way they can on computers. I use my iPad about 90% of the time instead of my computer and would like to have the option to sync via cable the same way. This would be a temporary solution until you create a tablet app, then you can move the cable syn option within the app the same way to the Mobile Device suggestion above 😎

Mention Speakers in Ask Pocket
In Ask Pocket let us mention speakers like @dps to ask questions directly about something speaker dps may have said

OneNote integration
I would like to see an integration to send transcript and audio file and summary and tasks directly to a linked one note. This allows for integration with existing note taking and combine everything in one place.

auto timeout setting for recordings
So many times I have started a recording only to forget to stop it, resulting in countless hours of wasted recording, battery, worthless and unusable files, and having to fiddle with the impossible to press delete button in the app UI. Please provide a setting to allow recordings to be automatically stopped after a certain amount of time (ie one hour), or at least an option for the device to stop recording after X minutes of silence.

Record system audio + my voice for audiobooks/podcasts
Just got my pocket. I am enjoying it so far, but ran into a snag I didn’t expect. I thought call mode would pick up general system audio but I’m not having luck with that. So I wanted to add this feature request here. My main use case for pocket is to record my verbal thoughts while consuming books/audiobooks/podcasts/etc. I have a use case where I listen to audiobooks or podcasts, and would like to record the system audio and my listens where I may pause the book and talk to the mic and add my own thoughts or synthesize ideas. Another use case is where I’m physically reading a book, and I would like to record thoughts from reading the book into 1 memory/conversation. Towards this, I’d like to able to record against 1 memory/conversation and add to it across sessions, because I may spend multiple sessions listening/reading a book. User story: As a pocket user I would like to be able to listen to books or podcasts across sessions and have pocket pick up the system audio, as well as my own voice (for my own notes/synthesis), in one memory/conversation so that I can have one single file for that one book or podcast. The 1 memory/conversation per book/audiobook/podcast is key for organization for me. Let me know if this makes sense! I would really love this feature! It would make the whole experience for me, as this is the primary reason I bought pocket was to more easily learn and take notes seamlessly.
