Hi there. Unfortunately it’s not yet available on Thunkable ✕ – how were you planning on using it? Albert ---

When will the voice recorder be available? It is for a testing app. Students will be recorded answering questions and the recording will be evaluated later. ---

This isn’t on our [roadmap](https://docs.thunkable.com/release-notes#coming-soon-to-thunkable) right now @lin unfortunately. Thanks for outlining your intended use case though - will pass this on to the rest of the team. ---

I have seen that thunkable X doesn’t have a voice recorder but the classic edition has… Why doesn’t X have this simple feature? Thanks! ---

Yes - we need one ASAP for an App I am building. I want to be able to store the recorded files in the cloud. ---

Is user-uploaded audio supported yet? For example, can the end user record a 10-second note with an in-app microphone and have it saved on local storage and replayed within the app? ---

Hi @kindafree, welcome to the Thunkable community! At the moment there’s no voice recorder or speech recorder so I don’t think this is possible. Apologies for the inconvenience. What sort of app are you trying to build? ---

An app where you record 15-second audio clips of your surroundings (that is one of the components). Is there an estimate on when this will be available? ---

You could use text to speech? And record a text answer. The user speaks, and you get text data. ---

HI @J_P_Singh - I don’t have an ETA for you for this component unfortunately. Can you tell me a little more about the app that you’re hoping to build and the role that the voice recorder would play in it please? Thanks! ---

Hello! Is the speech/audio recording available yet? I’m looking to create a small app to take notes on the go. Something like SimpleNote on iOS? Literally records me talking, and saves that recording for transcription or playback at another time! ---

Welcome to the community @beonice80l4ec 👋 There is actually a feature that will transcribe this for you already[! Check it out](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/6c8e5e2ae13d133d155be1361c35eff4) ---

Sometimes I just want to have the audio available for playback, though. Not always transcribed. For example, if I’m out walking on the beach and I want the background sound of the waves crashing on the beach … ---

ahh! I don’t think at this time there is not an an option to record just audio. Perhaps you could request that [here on the GitHub request page](https://github.com/thunkable/thunkable-issues/issues/new?template=feature_request.md) This is where the admins listen to our requests and can organize them much more clearly than on this forum ---

Thanks for the link to the project. When I try clicking the Listen button on my iPad, it tells me “Can’t Overwrite Firebase Data”! I know I dragged an invisible Firebase component into my own test project, but that shouldn’t affect _your_ project, right? ---

If you are recieving that error, it means you need to change your read/write permissions on firebase if you arent’ loggin in, this could be the reason why. your firebase rules need to look like this { “rules”: { “.read”: “auth! = null”, “.write”: “auth! = null” } } [Next page](https://community.thunkable.com/t/thunkable-x-voice-recorder/36393.md?page=2)
