Feature Ideas

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!!

I have only had my device for a short time. Even so, I am getting really irritated by the constant pressure to upgrade to a pro account. I do not need nor can I justify the cost of this option. Indeed, my main reason for buying a Pocket rather than one of a myriad of competing products is the claim that it offers free minutes forever. I have seen the upgrade options. Please provide a toggle or some mechanism so that I can turn this advertising off. Otherwise I think you will antagonise many more customers and not just me.

Today I accidentally recorded a 2-hour long convo and tried to delete and Pocket would not let me until it finished summarizing.

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.

We all have thoughts in day and will do it later but as I have cognitive impairment I have to do tasks straight away or record it somehow to remind me later. I thought I had this option last week but since last update this has gone

The ability to access and work with the cloud data on other non-mobile devices would be a great option for those who wish to use full size displays and keyboards when possible. V1 at https://community.heypocket.com/t/pocket-web-is-live-beta-and-happy-halloween/692/4 -- Pocket Team

What I want (plain English): Ask one question and have Pocket search everything I’ve captured (all recordings/notes), then answer with where it found it (recording title + timestamp). I shouldn’t have to remember when I said something—Pocket should. Everyday examples: “What did I say about Ella’s birthday gifts last month?” “Summarize all mentions of Project Skylark since September and list open tasks.” “When did I agree to send the Q3 report, and what date did I say?” How I’ll know it’s working (acceptance criteria): Global scope toggle — Ask Pocket searches my entire workspace (all recordings, notes, uploads). Source-aware answers — Replies include links with timestamp + recording name so I can jump right there. Time filters — Natural language like “last week,” “between Aug 10–20,” “this quarter.” Entity continuity — Recognize people/projects/topics across time (even nicknames) and merge duplicates. Privacy controls — Simple exclude switch for specific recordings/folders. Mobile-first UX — One home search bar for global Ask; also a per-recording Ask inside sessions. Performance — Answers in a few seconds for normal queries; progressive results on larger searches. Nice-to-haves: “What changed since last time?” diffs for projects I follow. Auto-created topic hubs (e.g., all “Ella’s birthday” mentions) with an evolving summary + action items. A simple graph/mind-map showing how mentions connect across time. Why this fits Pocket: It already “connects the dots” in summaries/mind maps; this makes Ask work the same way for everyday questions.

Editing transcript is similar but trimming the recording would be a bulk way to edit as well as shrink file size.

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

Right now, when you sync, there's a button you click to generate a summary and a pop-up happens asking you to choose a template. I feel like here it should also have you label the speakers, so that when it's summarizing it will summarize with names instead of "speaker 3". In order to change it from "speaker 3" to "john" you have to go into the transcript and tap on them. It would make a lot more sense to be able to access the speaker labeling functions quicker and easier.

Can someone please put a user manual or an office style Help function together that explains the features and how to actually use them? I am older "55" and am well versed in computers, however the app like most today has an interface that attempts to handle everything it can automatically. This confuses us older generations. I have not been able to figure out how to make my recordings useful in my professional life. I need a booklet/pamphlet or maybe a help option that lays out each feature and how to use them. Maybe tips and tricks that help the pocket perform in different scenarios. Having pocket record my thoughts/conversations is great but if that information is not easily organizable or useable it's of no help. Still have no idea what a mind map even is. In setup I read the First Day use example. All that did is confuse the heck out of me. I think you are going to find many customers feel the same. It just doesn't feel "intuitive" and I find myself delaying putting the Pocket into practice because of this. Thanks

adding additional context like job title, key people, company info or department structure can help the AI better interpret and summarize transcriptions with greater contextual accuracy. Similar to adding to profile memory in ChatGPT. Granola and other AI notetaking summary apps have this as a core feature.

I’d really like full Microsoft integration with outlook, email and calendar. If I’m in a conversation that requires a follow up email I’d like for that email to be drafted based on the conversation any appointments or reminders to be added to my Outlook tasks.

I would like to have the meeting summary view in a desktop log-in-able environment or browser-based log-in-able environment. The UI from when you share a meeting is fine, right? So even just having a landing page that enables viewing of each one of those meetings in that shareable browser-based UI is fine or something along those lines. Ideally that would also make it easier to do different taggings or different groupings of meetings or add in notes to meetings so that when you use an API to more interactively call a context, you've been able to input it all in there very effectively and debrief against it, etc.

I'm getting too many tasks in my list from my meetings. Literally 20-30 a day and it becomes useless to me since not everything is actionable immediately or something I necessarily want to put on my task list Suggestions: A bulk delete tasks option (delete mode - select the ones you want to delete and click one button to delete them all.A toggle option to change the way tasks at the end of a summary works. I'd like there to be a button to add it to my task list instead of a check box to mark it completeTo expand on number 2, there should also be a bulk add tasks shortcut in the drop down menu in the summary so you don't have to select one by one if you want to add them all
