Heard Records Audio In The Background, Saves The Last Five Minutes

iPhone: Your phone is a very capable voice recorder, but you might miss an important moment in the few seconds it takes to find and open an audio recording app. Heard attempts to solve this problem by recording in the background, and saving a buffer of audio at all times.

Once you launch the app and start recording, it will keep working in the background while you go about your day. If you hear something you want to save, just hop back to the app and save the audio buffer locally, or send it via email or Facebook. Battery life is always a concern for anything running in the background, so this might be an app you use at your desk while plugged in, or only in situations where you think you might need it.
