WebIS has released Note2Self 1.0, an audio recorder for the iPhone. It lets you quickly record a voice note, save it in a Saved Notes list and automatically send it to any email address.
Note2Self uses the proximity sensor to turn off the screen when the iPhone is brought up to the face. Llikewise, the accelerometer toggles recording on and off automatically.
Note2Self can record audio as long as there’s free space, and offers two encoding options to help decide the quality of the voice message: AIFF uncompressed or a 4x compressed IMA4 format. Both are playable with QuickTime.
While the iPhone email client is capable of sending attachments, this ability isn’t yet available to iPhone developers. So for Note2Self to send email voice notes, WebIS has set up a passthrough server that accepts voice notes via a web service and then sends the email to the recipients.
Note2Self for iPhone costs US$4.99 and is available at the Apple App Store.
