Quick audio scratchpad notes workflow
This is something I've been looking for in general for quick voice memos. Back when I was on Android I could set up a hardware button to be a press and hold voice memo button even while the phone was locked. One of the very few things I miss about Android.
This morning I was noodling around on my acoustic while catching up on some "Youtube news" and came up with a simple fingerpicking riff I wanted to keep. From my voice memo app hunting, I had found "Just Press Record", which lets you add a red button widget that will open the app and immediately start recording. I used that because it was ready to go. It certainly worked well, and was quick to access while I had this riff in my fingers, but it's not "a music app", for whatever that's worth. It has a full share sheet so it's easy to get into AudioShare or Ferrite (which I just discovered and I'm checking out), but I'm wondering if there are other options to simplify/consolidate and get a clean workflow that provides immediacy when you don't want to, or don't have time to say set up AUM and record enable it.
So, any workflow tips (maybe using the new Shortcuts stuff?) or field recorder apps for doing reactionary captures or "musical second brain" recordings?
