FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to create an account?
No. You can try VidNotes in your browser without creating an account or signing up. Just paste a video link and get an instant transcript. When you decide to upgrade to a paid plan, account creation is handled through the App Store or Stripe with minimal information required.
What languages are supported?
VidNotes supports English and 30+ additional languages including Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, Korean, and more. The engine handles diverse accents and dialects, and you can mix languages within a single video. AI summaries and flashcards are generated in the same language as the source.
How accurate is the transcription?
VidNotes uses state-of-the-art speech-to-text models that deliver high accuracy on clear audio. Background noise, microphone quality, and speaker clarity all affect results. For YouTube videos with existing captions, VidNotes pulls those directly for near-perfect accuracy.
What's the maximum video length?
There is no hard limit. VidNotes handles everything from 30-second clips to multi-hour lectures and meeting recordings. Longer videos process in the background with progress updates, so you can keep using the app while transcription completes.
Is my data secure?
Yes. Videos are encrypted in transit, and we do not store video files after transcription. All transcripts are stored locally on your device, not on remote servers. You control what gets exported, shared, or deleted. We never sell user data.
What platforms is VidNotes available on?
VidNotes is available on iOS (iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision Pro) through the App Store, as a web app at app.vidnotes.app that works on any device with a modern browser, and as a Chrome extension for instant YouTube transcription. Android support is coming soon.
