Every note has two action surfaces.
  • The Send button (paperplane) on the toolbar gets a note out of Cleft. See Sending Notes.
  • The ••• menu next to it covers actions you take on the note inside Cleft.
On iOS, long-press a note in the list to open the same set of actions as a context menu. On macOS, right-click a note in the list.

​
Actions on a note (the ••• menu)

  • Continue. Append more audio to an existing note.
  • Pin to Widget (iOS only). Pin this note as the focus of your home screen Pinned Note widget. One note at a time. See Widgets.
  • Rewrite. Regenerate the summary from the transcript. Useful after you tweak your custom instructions.
  • Duplicate. Create a copy of the note.
  • Merge. Combine two selected notes into one. Select two notes first to unlock this option.
  • Archive / Unarchive (⌘⇧A). Move the note in or out of your Archived filter.
  • Delete. Permanently remove the note.

​
Sending and copying

Send and copy options live under the paperplane Send button on the toolbar. See Sending Notes for the full menu, Copying Notes for copy formats, and Shareable Links for web links.

​
Multi-Select

Select multiple notes for bulk operations:
  • Delete. Remove multiple notes at once.
  • Archive. Archive or unarchive in bulk.
  • Tags. Add or remove tags across selected notes.
On macOS, use ⌘ + Click to select individual notes or ⇧ + Click for a range.

​
Audio Playback

Tap the play button on any voice note to listen back:
  • Play / Pause. Drag the scrubber to jump to any point.
  • Speed controls. 1x, 1.5x, or 2x playback.
  • Layout. On iPhone, the player opens as a sheet. On macOS and iPad, it plays inline.

​
Storage

  • Audio is transcribed locally. Speech-to-text runs on your device using Whisper, so your audio is never sent to AI partners.
  • Audio syncs to Cleft’s servers. Recordings upload to Cleft for cross-device access and sharing, but are never shared with third-party LLM providers like OpenAI.
  • Note data syncs. Titles, transcripts, and summaries sync across your devices.
  • Offline support. Notes created without a connection sync automatically when you’re back online.
Only the text transcript is sent to AI for summarization. Your audio stays between you and Cleft. Cleft is an Irish company and all data is stored in the EU. Learn more in our Trust Center.
