Feature Ideas

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.

Textual transcripts lack the emotional delta present in vocal delivery. I want audio-native interpretation to capture sarcasm, excitement, and friction that words alone mask. Specifications: Tonal Distribution: Provide a percentage-based breakdown of emotional states (e.g., 40% Engagement, 20% Sarcasm, 10% Reticence).Temporal Markers: Identify specific vectors where the emotional tone shifts, noted by precise timestamps (e.g., "Shift to annoyance at 08:42").Acoustic Inference: Analyze pitch, cadence, and inflection to synthesize intent rather than just transcribing syntax. Objective: Transform transcripts from flat records into high-fidelity intelligence.

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.

This could be a Pro feature, and subscription rates could be adjusted to fit with Pocket’s business model. By enabling this, recordings and summaries from various devices would flow into a unified thread for one account - this will be useful for small owner-operated enterprises so that, for example, engagements from the front desk, the customer service hotline and the customer service agents are recorded by different staff and then transcribed in unified form for central management. It will also support use-cases where individuals use multiple devices for different engagements across an enterprise they operate in, e.g. during parallel meetings, or for telephone calls as part of in-person engagements where both need recording, or where team members participate in simultaneous engagements that are related to the same project - the list goes on & on. Multiple devices under separate accounts could be a short term workaround, but would require separate subscriptions and would require manual integration into a unified summarisation thread, and would therefore not be sustainable in an enterprise environment (or personal for that matter).

Description: I am requesting a dedicated input field that appears immediately after a recording is completed, but before the transcription and summarization process begins. This field should allow users to provide: Names of participants. The specific context of the conversation. Relevant technical terminology or additional background information. Use Case: By providing this context upfront, the AI can produce a significantly more accurate transcript and summary. This eliminates the need for manual editing after the fact and ensures that the output is immediately ready for professional workflows.

So you don't need to open the app, but it syncs in the background. Would lower friction so much. Loved the idea about not needing to interact with an app, but isn't there a 100%. My oura and my whoop can do background syncing over Bluetooth, should be possible for the pocket also. You just leave it on for some time after the recording, so that it can sync. A notification when it's done, so you know when you can turn it off.

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!!

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.

It would be helpful to be able locate it if misplaced, or to be notified if you leave the device behind. Find My app for iPhone would be really helpful for all Apple Users.

Timeout for the LED status light after say 10 minutes of no use. It can draw unnecessary attention and can be a disturbance at night even though it isn't super bright.

When Pocket is toggled to call, it will automatically record calls without pushing "Record" manually

It would save me many hours if I could swipe a conversation left to on the dashboard to delete accidental recordings, of which I have at least a handful every day.

When adding recording from a file to the app, detect the recording date and time automatically from the metadata.

Seems like mindmaps are more eye candy than helpful on most notes. I'd like to be able to opt-in to adding one over having it default on for every note.

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
