What is the Online Voice Recorder?
This online voice recorder turns your browser into a simple audio recorder. Press Start, speak, and stop when you are done: the recording appears with a player so you can listen back immediately, and you can download it in the format your browser records natively (WebM/Opus or M4A) or as a universal WAV file.
It has a live level meter, a timer, pause and resume, and noise suppression and echo cancellation switches. Recordings are made and kept only inside your browser tab — there is no upload, no account and no time limit other than your device's memory — so it is a safe way to capture notes, interviews, lecture summaries, voice-overs and song ideas.

Questions people ask
Is there a time limit?
No fixed limit. Very long recordings use your device's memory, so download long sessions in parts.
What formats can I download?
The browser's native format (WebM/Opus in Chrome, Edge and Firefox; M4A in Safari) and WAV.
Are my recordings uploaded?
No. They exist only in your browser tab until you download or close it.
Why did it ask for microphone permission?
Browsers require your explicit permission before any website can record audio.
Can I record my computer's audio?
This tool records the microphone. To capture computer audio and the screen together, use the Screen Recorder tool.
