SitterBrief Support

You speak a voice note covering things like bedtime, food, allergies, emergency contacts, and house rules. SitterBrief transcribes it, organizes the content into clear sections, and lets you review and edit everything before you share it with your babysitter.

Open the app, tap the microphone, and talk naturally about the instructions you want your sitter to have. Tap Done when you're finished, then tap Generate Brief. SitterBrief organizes your note into sections you can review before sharing.

SitterBrief uses Apple's built-in Speech framework to transcribe what you say, processed on-device when your iPhone supports on-device recognition. The resulting text is then sent to Google's Gemini AI, which organizes it into bedtime, food, emergency contact, and other-notes sections.

Yes. On the review screen, every field is editable — summaries, individual items, children's names, dates, and emergency contacts. You can also add or remove items and contacts before sharing. Nothing is sent to your sitter until you choose to share it.

After reviewing your brief, tap Save & Share. SitterBrief publishes the guide and opens your Messages app (or your device's share sheet) with a link ready to send to your sitter.

Yes. The link opens a plain web page showing the care guide — your sitter doesn't need to download SitterBrief or create an account to view it.

Each contact you add includes a name, relationship, and phone number. In the shared care guide, your sitter can tap a contact to call them directly from their phone's browser.

Open the History tab in the app. Past briefs are saved on your device so you can reuse or update one instead of starting from scratch.

In History, swipe left on a brief and tap Delete to remove it from your device. Note that deleting it from History removes your local copy only — it does not revoke a link you've already shared. Anyone who already has that link can still open it.

Here's exactly what happens with your information: your voice is transcribed by Apple's Speech framework (on-device when supported), the resulting text is sent to Google's Gemini AI to organize it into sections, and your saved briefs live locally on your device. When you share a brief, it's published to a link that anyone with that link can open — treat it the way you would any other link you send someone. We don't claim the shared data is encrypted, automatically deleted, or otherwise handled in ways not described here.

You can re-record your note, or simply edit the text directly on the review screen — every field, including summaries and individual items, can be corrected by hand before you share.

First, check that SitterBrief has microphone and speech recognition permission under iOS Settings → Privacy & Security. Then try closing and reopening the app. If the issue continues, contact support below and let us know what happened.
