Date in file names

  • New in Settings › Recording › “Date in file name”: 2026-10-30 14-03 (default), 261030 1403, 20261030 1403, or a custom format such as yyMMdd_HHmm (only year, month, day, hour, minute and the separators space, -, _, .). A preview shows the result.
  • Applies to recordings made in the app and to AirDrop. Recordings from the iPhone shortcut keep arriving as 2026-10-30 14-03 and are renamed to your format when the app picks them up from iCloud – no need to change the shortcut.
  • Descriptive names keep the date as set (“Recording 261030 1403 → 261030 1403 Budget planning”). Default names in every listed format are still recognized, so older recordings also get descriptive names after a switch.
  • Existing files are not renamed. “All transcripts” reads the recording date from the new name formats too.
