But let’s get back at Poddio.This is an amazing app which proves itself to be extremely helpful especially if you are a journalist or why not a student. A lazy one, but non-the-less a student.

You can record any sound , using the built-in mic in the iPhone. If you are on a iPod Touch , you can get a set of iPhone headphones with the mic on the right cable, or any other similar headphones ( cheaper and maybe with superior quality ) and you pretty much good to go. You can use this “technique” to make calls via VoIP ( fring  or any other app ).

One you recorded the sound ( interview, class, lecture w/e ) that you want, you can safe it as .caf , .wav and . aiff . Than the best part is that you can edit , the recording, and get only the parts that you want, you can share them anything you can imagine.

If you ever worked with a sound recorder ( maybe sony acid pro ) , you will have no trouble using Poddio. One downside to Poddio is, in my opinion , its ugly user interface. But i was told that they work on it, and would appreciate any suggestion for the next version. So please dont be shy to share your opinions.

Poddio it’s a little bit expensive though. It cost $9.99, but depending on your activity field , spending on this one you will get all the satisfaction you would expect from a product like Poddio. You can get Poddio from here .

Now i could do an endless tutorial on Poddio and embed thousands of screenshots. But i think that all of that would have been a waste of time and energy because this app is too damn complex for a image-text tutorial.

Instead , the guys at VeriCorder Technology INC. , did an amazing job presenting the basics of Poddio in this video :
