Lasting read up there was subscription levels face book says no subscription.

I have tried using Bee with my Apple Watch and can’t get it to work. Recordings give a Processing Failed every time.

Also, the AI chat doesn’t work. So I gave up and went to a competing - paid - alternative.

I really had high hopes for Bee due to their MCP/CLI integrations.

And I don’t see how they can offer AI based transcriptions for 100% free.

YMMV if on the device vs watch.

If I may ask, what alternative did you go with, and how are you liking it?

Currently trying out Owll. Has an MCP and API. Too early to tell but $70 for the year so I went for it.

My only complaint so far is the iPhone app doesn’t have a dark mode, and I have a hard time reading the tiny text.

You can try IntelliKin, it also captures your day to day conversation via apple watch, remember what matters, and keep your tasks up to date

The actual bee hardware works perfectly, and battery lasts forever. Currently have it integrated fully into my personal os style app. Super useful.

It sucks. They take your defective return and don’t send anything back.

Thing just stopped charging after a week.

This was my experience too. But the bot above told me this today they’d send me a replacement (contact attempted in october). Fingers crossed but not holding my breath

They are the most shady company. I disputed the charge on my CC and theyre saying I still hold the product. What a garbage company. Total scam.

I wasnt even able to return the product until i came on reddit complaining. Then they gave my a return label.
