Audio Diary — Capture your life’s moments

@gael_de_mondragon Thank you so much for spotting those screenshot mistakes! I did them late last night when my eyes weren't the best. They're updated and in review in Google now. Yes, I understand the data concern. We genuinely treat the data very safely, don't sell it, keep it secure under industry best practices, etc. What would it take for you to be comfortable with our use of data? It's something I've been trying to figure out myself. Thanks again!

@audio_diary I'm not sure to be honest. Perhaps the data being stored on a platform I trust (google drive, dropbox). But then for the app to work I guess you would need permission to view my drive which is not great either. If you could store on drive and only need permission to access a specific folder that could work.

@gabriel_nori Hi Gabriel, thanks so much!! Thanks for the thought-provoking questions! Currently the features are somewhat bare-boned. Currently the main features we have are: - A gratitude question each day - Ability to set goals which Audio Diary will ask you about after a set amount of time. - Transcription of your entries - an AI-summary of your day (along with some fun little features each day!) We are planning (amongst other, more boring things that need to be done): - Monthly/Yearly summaries - Hearting/favouriting recordings - Mood tracking over time - Intelligent insights (for example, look back over your holiday last year, à la Google Photos) - More intelligent goal tracking/notifications - Getting to "know" the user. For example learning their relationships so that the AI summaries can be smarter. Obviously this will be completely transparent and the jury is still out how we will do this! Regarding use-cases, we try to look at it via past, present and future. That is: A chronically of a person's history, a way for getting your thoughts out in the now, and a way of setting goals to work towards.

@andrea_juwono1 Thanks a lot–we're so glad you like the idea and hope the app lives up to (or even exceeds!) your expectations! We engage with users via social media and play store reviews, and have just started sending out email comms. The emails are designed to be a helpful reminders and we've developed a system to make sure that we don't send too many emails to any one user. We also plan to send out weekly newsletters with new developments to the app. We currently have such a small userbase that we can actually get an intuitive understanding of how people use the app based on (non-sensitive) events we send to an encrypted admin panel that we built ourselves. For future analysis we are going to implement a more robust analytics tool such as Amplitude, and only send non-sensitive events there. Audio recordings are completely siloed and are hosted separately from other user data, and only accessible to the user via a pre-signed URL with a short expiry. Hopefully that answers your question but if not, please do let me know!

@celia_ainsworth Thanks so much Celia! I hope you find it useful!
