On this screen, you can edit the clip start and endpoints.While listening to a podcast in Overcast, tap the Share icon to pull up the sharing menu.We’ll be using some of the same steps for getting a full episode transcript later on, so it’s a good place to start. ![]() Let’s start with getting the transcript for a snippet of up to 90 seconds, which is what I do most often. We need this for the full episode transcript workflow because of a minor Otter shortcoming discussed below. If you prefer another app (anything from Apple Notes to Evernote or even an email), you can easily adjust the Shortcut above to work for you. Drafts is the iOS note app I use as an inbox.If you are on Android, you’ll need to figure out another way to do that. This Apple Shortcut is how we will get the podcast’s mp3 source information from Overcast.You can sign up for a free plan that gives you 600 minutes of transcription a month or upgrade to 6,000 minutes for $8.33 USD per month.

One thing that annoys me about the rise of podcasts as a knowledge-sharing medium is how hard it is to capture and recall information later.
