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.

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

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.

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

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

I want to be able to export PDF without branding. I’m not trying to advertise pocket, it’s unprofessional to show this branding. As a paying Pro user I should have the right to export a bare PDF without branding.

This is not my first feedback regarding this issue. I was hoping the update would have fixed it, but it did not. I occasionally start recording a meeting, the light turns yellow, the device vibrates, and even the app on my phone indicates that the recording has started. Then, after 15, 30, 45 minutes, at random, I will look over at the device to see that the blue light is back on. Without touching the device, it simply stops recording, and the portion of the meeting where the light was yellow is simply gone. No record of the recording at all in the device or the app. At first, I thought it was just a fluke, but it is becoming a real problem. I am now up to about 1 out of every 7 recordings that will just disappear. I can no longer trust the device and have started using a backup recording device for super important meetings. Even in regular meetings, I am now checking the device nearly every 5 minutes to ensure it's still working. I submitted feedback a few weeks ago, hoping to hear from someone that an "update is on the way to fix your issue", but I have heard nothing back. I was super impressed with the dev team and their responsiveness prior to my purchase, but now that they have my money and I have an issue... nothing... I don't know if it's a hardware or software issue, but if I can't trust this device its of no use to me. I truly hope someone from the dev team sees this and chooses to do something about it, because I truly liked the device and used it multiple times every day.

In reading through the community chat, it appears there is no way to listen to the audio files on the device itself. I have a similar device I can do this with and it's very helpful as I may record several different things each day one right after the other without stopping to name the files. During my review time, I like to listen to the beginning of the conversation to see if I even need to keep the file (and have it transcribed, summarized and mind-mapped) and then transfer it to my iPhone or Mac.

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 🙏

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

I was surprised that Mind Maps don't seem to be exportable as OPML files for editing on desktop. That would really make them much more usable.

building a more robust version of our in app calendar open to any feedback here thanks!

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

Basically with my phone and case, recording mode with the call mode contact mic is useless, however I find it very easy to accidentally toggle the conversation mode and defeats the purpose of single button to record, if I have to take a look at a toggle to ensure it will toggle. I'm literally about to create a plug or glue to prevent it from toggling. Can you make a software option to remap or disable the modes. Even just being able to set both directions as conversation would be helpful for me. But other ideas for remapping could be tag toggles with recording modes.
