What the web version does and what only the app does

Updated 6 October 2026 · 2 min read
In shortThe web version (web.sozai.app) records from the microphone and from tab audio, uploads files and YouTube links, and shows text, notes, quiz, flashcards, chat and translation. Purchases, guest mode and background recording are app-only.

In both the web version and the app

Recording, uploading files and YouTube, text with speakers, notes, quiz, flashcards, chat about a recording, translation, export. There is one account: sign in the same way as in the app and your recordings and minutes are there.

Web only

  • Recording tab audio: a Meet, Zoom or Teams call open in the browser (Chrome and Edge).
  • The text of a recording and its notes side by side on one screen.
  • Keyboard shortcuts (the list).

App only

  • Buying minutes and Premium (why).
  • Background recording, widgets, Share from other apps.
  • Guest mode without signing in.
  • Editing the text of a recording and the notes.
  • Export to PDF and JSON: the web exports TXT, SRT and VTT.
  • The voice translator and dictation in notes.

Good to know about the web version

The interface is in five languages: English, Russian, French, Portuguese and Spanish; the app has twelve. One recording in the browser can be up to 3 hours. You can drop several files anywhere in the window: they upload one at a time, and after a dropped connection an upload continues from where it stopped. Keep the tab open until the upload finishes; the browser asks before you close it.

On an iPhone, long recordings are more reliable in the app: Safari stops a recording when the screen locks.
