It’s confusing... – iTalk Recorder Review

It’s a great app and all, but to get any actual use out of it, you have to upgrade. Good luck. You can record high quality audio. That’s great, but I honestly don’t know if it surpasses the audio quality of the iOS Memo app. Even so, I’m inclined to believe it’s better quality, and I don’t know of any actual reason other than “I want to believe”. I’ve used this app for years, and I don’t know why. The only way to transfer audio to any place other than your phone is by email (there’s also the option of doing a sync with iTunes, but let’s be serious, that’s just a pain for many reasons, especially since iCloud backups are a thing now). If your file is too large (over a minute or so), then you aren’t allowed to email it u less you upgrade the app. I’d be totally happy to pay a few dollars to upgrade, but I can’t even figure out how! Either by selecting to upgrade through a prompt or by selecting the “unlock” option in the menu, you are brought to a screen that tells you all of the reasons you should upgrade, YET DOESN’T PROVIDE THE OPTION TO DO SO. Maybe I’m an idiot, but after searching the App Store, Google, and even searching through every corner of the app, I cannot find any actual option to obtain the upgrade. It seems to me that the Unlock screen should have a big button on the bottom that allows you to do the upgrade. I can’t find a way to do it, and without the upgrade, this app is only useful for insanely short recordings, and leaves you with no reason to use it unless you want to sync your phone to you computer every time you record anything useful.
