Does sayit work on iPhone?

Yes, today, in Safari — the full web app works on iPhone now. A native iOS app is built and in the final stages before App Store review; join the waitlist.

Yes, sayit works on iPhone today — through Safari, not a native app yet. Open sayit in your phone's browser and you get the identical product: full-fidelity recording, the same three-pass scoring engine, the same per-word IPA verdicts you'd see on a laptop. A dedicated native iOS app is real and in progress — it's built and in the final stages before App Store review — but there's no public release date, and sayit says so plainly rather than guessing one.

30-second version: Full functionality on iPhone right now, via Safari. A native app (dictaphone-style recorder, home-screen widgets, Picture-in-Picture practice over other apps, Dynamic Island) is coming — sayit's own page describes it as in the final stages before App Store review, with one confirmation email now and one at launch if you join the waitlist. Everything you record today carries over once it ships.

What's different between the browser and the coming native app

The web app on iPhone gives you the core loop today: record, get scored, see the sound to fix. The native app adds phone-native conveniences on top of the same engine — a home-screen widget showing your streak and last score, Picture-in-Picture so the practice deck can float over WhatsApp or Safari while you use another app, and Dynamic Island integration. It is explicitly the same scoring engine as the web app, not a cut-down version — a take recorded on the phone and one recorded in a browser are scored identically.

Recording + scoringYesYes (same engine)
Per-word IPA feedbackYesYes
Home-screen widget, Picture-in-Picture, Dynamic IslandNoYes

Release dateNot yet announced

Where this is genuinely fine

  • Nothing about the scoring is missing on iPhone today — it's the same engine, not a lighter mobile version.
  • Your account, streak, and recordings carry straight over between the browser and the app once it launches — one library, not two.
  • The waitlist is genuinely light-touch: one confirmation email now, one at launch, unsubscribe available, per sayit's own iOS page.

Where it genuinely falls short

  • No home-screen icon, no widget, no Picture-in-Picture yet — you have to open a browser tab.
  • No committed launch date, and the recording itself will still need a network connection to be scored even once the app ships — analysis always runs on sayit's servers, not on the phone.

What to actually expect from the waitlist

Joining the waitlist through sayit's iOS page is a genuinely light commitment: you confirm your email once, and after that you get exactly two emails total — one confirmation now, one when the app actually ships — with an unsubscribe link on both. There's no drip campaign, no "here's what's coming next week" marketing sequence in between. If you'd rather not join anything and just check back periodically, that works too; nothing about using the web app today requires being on the list.

Try it

Use the full product on iPhone right now via the app in Safari, and join the waitlist to get one email the day the native app ships.
