AudioNote combines the functionality of a notepad and voice recorder to create a powerful tool that will save you time while improving the quality of your notes. It’s the perfect app for students or business.
By synchronizing notes and audio, AudioNote automatically indexes your meetings, lectures, interviews, or study sessions. Need to review the discussion about deliverables on your next project?

A fully functional note application, AudioNote also increases the value of your notes. Watch as your text, drawings, and photos highlight during playback, helping you to remember the context in which they were taken.
With the convenience of the iPad or iPhone, you can use AudioNote anywhere: meetings, interviews, conferences, lectures, study sessions.

Featured in Gizmodo's "The Best Note Taking Apps":
"AudioNote has one trick, and it's a doozy. Aside from functioning as a basic note-taking app, AudioNote can make sound recordings at the same time, and keep them synchronized, note by note, with the text. You can, in effect, relive a lecture or a meeting through sound and notes."

Ratings and Reviews
Exported files don't sync audio
This app works pretty well, but the exported files have audio clips and a pdf.
The file is an .rtfd, which opens in TextEdit on the Mac with embedded audio files - in my test case, there were five audio files embedded, labelled "Audio part 1" etc. There was also an embedded PDF in the .rtfd file. The PDF had timestamps for each typed line, but no way to correlate the timestamps with the audio file, although a different app than TextEdit might have been able to figure it out by knowing the length of each audio file.
The audio files were probably broken up because I recorded in several separate segments.
However, the audio clips are not synchronized with the typed or drawn notes. Of course, they are sync'ed on the iPad, just not on the MacBook. I don't know if there is a standard file format for that, or if they need a Mac app to be able to read the files. I use Pear Notes on the Mac, but I haven't found a solution that let's me take the notes on the iPad and review the sync'ed notes on the Mac.
Great App
This is one of the best note taking apps I've tried. I have deleted every other app I installed on my ipad since trying the free version of this app. I am going to upgrade to the full version which will allow for emailing notes to others. I especially like the recording feature, and the option to type your notes instead of writing if that is what you prefer. Used this app during a teleconference with my supervisor and one other attendee. At the end of the call, which I recorded while jotting down notes as well, my supervisor asked a lot of questions about how this app worked. I think she's going to get it as we'll.
Although the recording time on the free version is only 10 minutes per note, I just kept adding new notes. Reviewing each 10 minute note was as easy as flipping a page in a book.
Love this app!!
Works decently, way cheaper than LiveScribe but apparent bug
I was looking for an app that would enable me to use the iPad instead of investing in a LiveScribe pen and expensive paper option that would record audio while taking notes.
This app seems to fit the bill. Even though I have to say despite not having the best handwriting, writing on the tablet even with the stylus is a far cry from writing on paper.
Having said that I also found a strange bug in the app. If you click on the Folders button and click Edit (which is where you would select notes to delete etc.), if you happen to tap the Folders button again it basically grays out the whole app screen and you cannot get back into it. The only option seems to be to press the iPad button to exit to the system and force quit the app and relaunch it. Try it out.
Glad I tried the free lite version before spending $5 on the full version, which I am likely to buy if these minor annoyances are fixed.
But those moaning about the recording time limits on a free version, try yourself developing an app that does something like this and give it away free, then complain. Those who expected it to transcribe dictation, consider reading descriptions before buying an app. Thanks.
