Just a note.
Its used as a possessive, as in its audio, does not get an  apostrophe.  
Remember that it's is a contraction that means it  is.

The  iPhone is a great recorder, talking 
instrument tuner, metronome, and a  million other uses. (grin)

Just remember that it is a phone, so  normally, 
it's audio is being processed to sound best to 
other people  on the phone. (high-pass filter, 
compression, noise reduction etc.) But,  many 
recording apps can turn off all that stuff if you want to capture  things 
raw.

And, other companies sell tiny audio interfaces 
that  let you attach better equipment, microphones etc. if you're into  
that.
