Apple’s popular app, Apple Notes, is gaining two significant features with iOS 18: in-app voice recording and the ability to perform mathematical calculations called Math Notes. Here are the details…

Apple Notes comes with Voice Recording and Math Notes features

With the iOS 18 update, Apple will add voice recording and mathematical calculation features to the Apple Notes app. These innovations aim to make note-taking more interactive and efficient.

The plan is for Apple devices to become an indispensable part of a wide range of uses, from daily tasks to academic studies. Here are the details of the new features:

Voice Recording feature: The voice recording feature integrated into Apple Notes allows users to add voice recordings directly to their notes. This feature, supporting multimedia entries, gives users the opportunity to create voice notes in their digital notebooks. Voice recordings can be embedded into specific notes and stored along with text and images.

Math Notes feature: The new ‘Math Notes’ feature integrates the Notes app with the Calculator app, allowing users to perform calculations while writing their notes. This will be particularly convenient for educational and business uses. Users will be able to automatically calculate mathematical expressions written in their notes and instantly incorporate these calculations into their notes.

These updates aim to transform Apple Notes from a simple note-taking app into a more comprehensive personal information management tool. Especially, the voice recordings and mathematical calculations will enable users to manage information more effectively and create rich content.

Apple plans to offer these features not only in iOS 18 but also in the new versions of macOS 15 and iPadOS, thus providing an integrated experience across all devices in the Apple ecosystem.
