Voice Notes and To-Do Capture for Mac
Voxt makes voice notes available wherever an idea appears. Wake note capture globally, record a quick voice-to-text note, mark it as a to-do, manage notes from a floating window, or drag a note directly into the input where you want to use it.
At a glance
- Wake voice note capture globally instead of opening a notes app first.
- Keep notes as text and mark them with a to-do status.
- Manage notes quickly from a global floating window.
- Drag a note item into a focused input to reuse it in another app.
Capture ideas before they disappear
Voice notes are designed for the gap between thinking and organizing. Capture first, then decide whether the note should remain a reminder, become a task, or move into another workflow.
Global voice capture
Wake the note workflow from anywhere on the desktop and speak a thought, reminder, or next action.
To-do status
Mark a note as a to-do so quick voice capture can become a small task list instead of an unstructured stream of text.
Floating note management
Use the global floating window to review and manage notes without leaving the app currently in focus.
Move a note into the next action
A captured note becomes more valuable when it can travel to the place where work continues. Voxt supports direct reuse instead of forcing a copy-and-paste detour.
Drag into an input
Drag a note item from the floating manager into a compatible text input to insert its content.
Keep rough capture separate
Use notes for fast capture, then apply the transcription or enhancement workflow later when a message, document, or task needs polish.
Organize by intent
Use a note for an idea, a reminder, or an actionable to-do, then clear or reuse it when the work is complete.
FAQ
Can I create a voice note from anywhere on Mac?
Voxt is designed to wake voice note capture globally from the desktop. The exact shortcut and availability depend on your app settings, permissions, and the current Voxt release.
Can voice notes become to-do items?
Yes. A captured note can carry a to-do status so you can distinguish actionable items from general ideas in the floating note manager.
Can I insert a note into another app?
Yes. Voxt supports dragging a note item from the floating manager into a compatible text input. You can also use the regular copy or insertion workflow where direct drag-and-drop is not supported.
Are voice notes the same as meeting notes?
No. Voice notes are for quick personal capture and to-do management. Meeting mode is designed for longer audio, speakers, timestamps, live transcription, translation, summaries, and follow-up questions.
