Voice Recorder

Record voice from your microphone

About Voice Recorder

Voice Recorder captures audio from your microphone directly in your browser using the MediaRecorder API — nothing is uploaded to a server. Recordings are saved as WebM by default, and can also be converted and downloaded as a standard WAV file using the Web Audio API entirely on your device.

How to use Voice Recorder

1Click "Start Recording" and allow microphone access if prompted.
2Speak into your microphone — the indicator pulses red while recording.
3Click "Stop Recording" when you're finished.
4Download the recording as WebM directly, or click "Export as WAV" to convert it and download a WAV file instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

What audio format do recordings download as?

Recordings are captured as WebM by default. Click "Export as WAV" to decode and re-encode the recording as a standard WAV file, then download it separately.

Is Voice Recorder free to use?

Yes, it's completely free with no signup and no limit on how many recordings you can make.

Do I need to install anything?

No, it works directly in your browser as long as you grant microphone access.

Is my recording private?

Yes. Recording and WAV conversion both happen entirely on your device via the browser's MediaRecorder and Web Audio APIs — audio is never uploaded to a server unless you choose to share the downloaded file yourself.

Tips & Tricks

✓Record in a quiet space and keep the microphone 6–12 inches from your mouth for clearer audio.
✓Use "Export as WAV" if you need an uncompressed, universally compatible format instead of WebM.
✓Download your recording promptly after stopping — refreshing the page will lose it since nothing is saved automatically.
✓If you accidentally deny microphone permission, you'll need to reset the site's microphone permission in your browser settings to try again.
