For songwriters who juggle voice memos and notes. Spit Notes is the iOS app that finally connects audio to your lyrics. Capture inspiration instantly & never lose a song idea again.
I’m the maker of Spit Notes. For years, my songwriting process was a chaotic mess. My iPhone was filled with hundreds of untitled voice memos, while my lyrics lived in a completely separate notes app.
This forced a clunky, fragmented workflow that stifled my creativity and allowed for sparks of song ideas to be forgotten or slip through the cracks. I built Spit Notes to solve this problem for myself and for every other musician who has felt this same frustration.
Spit Notes is designed with one mission: to eliminate the friction between inspiration and creation.
Here are the key features:
Contextual Songwriting: Record audio directly next to any line of text. No more trying to match "New Recording 142" to a lyric you wrote yesterday.
Frictionless Capture: The app is built for speed. It’s for capturing those fleeting ideas in the car or in the middle of the night before they disappear.
Artist-Centric Tools: We use AI for helpful, mechanical tasks like transcription, but Spit Notes is a tool to augment your unique talent, not replace it.
I’m not a native Swift developer but I built this app in about 3 months with a "human-assisted" AI workflow, where I acted as the architect and AI agents did the coding. It was an amazing process that let me finally build the tool I'd been dreaming of for years.
The app is available on the App Store now. I would be thrilled to hear your feedback!

Finally.... someone fixed the voice memo chaos for songwriters! Linking audio right next to lyrics is such a smart idea—I’ve lost so many hooks in my mess of recordings. Did you think about adding tags for moods or genres?
@cruise_chen thanks for the comment. "Voice memo chaos" is a good way to put it. I know I've lost a few good songs ideas in recordings on an old phone somewhere. Fantastic idea about tags. It's definitely on my mind. The whole goal is to make organizing and finding your lyrics better, so adding tags for mood, genre, or even project is a perfect next step. It's high on the list for a future update. Appreciate you checking it out!

Cool tool. Marrying lyrics + audio in the same app is something a lot of creators mights need. If sync is solid and search really works, this could become a staple in a songwriter’s workflow.
@roozbehfirouz Appreciate you checking it out. You're right, the goal is to become that exact staple in a songwriter's workflow. That core idea of preserving the link between melody and lyrics is everything. And knowing it's all being sync'd to your iCloud can help you sleep at night knowing you're lyrics and song ideas are safe.
