Submit IdeaPause Function while recording
So far, I'm very satisfied. However, what I'm still missing is a pause function during recording. Especially when Iβm recording my ideas, there are often long pauses while I think. In those moments, it would be helpful to be able to briefly pause the recording and then resume it, instead of having to start a new session every time. Otherwise, I end up with many separate recordings and summaries, even though theyβre all part of the same topic. I think that would be a useful addition for future versions.

Listen 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. Letβs go for premium so we can refer even more to the service and device!!

Label speakers BEFORE summarizing or Add an easier way to label
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.

Dashboard swipe left to delete
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.

Work with βFind Myβ App
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.

Start recording from Apple Watch
How about a companion Watch app, with a watch complication that would allow you to start recording a meeting by tapping the complication on the watch, rather than taking out your phone and using the app. In some meetings with execs or clients, they don't want to see you using your smartphone. Using a watch would provide a more discreet way to start your recording.

LED Light Timeout
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.

Stronger Magsafe Magnets
It never feels secure on the back of my iPhone 16 Pro. It's always sliding and moving around on the back and can attach at the wrong place where it doesn't even get the full magnet grip. It's fallen off several times. I have quite a few MagSafe and this is by far the weakest connection. It also doesn't help that it's aluminum against glass.

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.

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 homeβs 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 Iβm missing some aspect of security or hardware limitations, this seems like it would benefit a lot of pocket users who arenβt around their phone all day.

Automatically add things to my Calendar
I want to have Pocket automatically add things to my calendar and learn what things I want and don't want added. For example, if I just finish a meeting and there are ToDo's, I want them to show up automagically on my calendar. I want to be able to select when they should show up, i.e., immediately, tonight, tomorrow, select a time, etc. Another example, as simple as "Siri (Alexa, etc) remind me to call Mark tomorrow at 9am and discuss xxxx". I want this to happen automagically

Silent mode
while I love the buzz when you start and stop recoding there are times when you need absolute silence (no buzz). Can there be an option to toggle a silent mode on?

Auto On when call comes in
When Pocket is toggled to call, it will automatically record calls without pushing "Record" manually

Device recording time out if no speech detected
auto device shut-off if no speech detected after X minutes (I leave mine on accidentally after a meeting is over lol) allow us to set the number of minutes it shuts off after... (let's say at least 5?)
