Review, replay, and export a recording

The recording detail screen, audio playback, copying, exporting files, and sharing.

Updated Nov 12, 2026

Open a recording in the Library to see its details.

Tabs

  • Transcript: each line with its timestamp. If the recording has a translation, the translation stands out on top and the original appears smaller below it.
  • Translation (iPhone and iPad): translated lines only. If the recording has no translation yet, the screen says No translation yet.
  • Summary: see Meeting summaries.

You can't edit individual lines of a recording yet. To clean up a whole recording, use Polish a recording.

Play the audio back

Use the play and pause buttons on the playback bar.

  • Mac: click the waveform to jump to another position. The bar shows the current time and the total duration.
  • iPhone and iPad: the waveform only shows progress. You can't scrub it yet.

The app doesn't have a playback speed option yet.

Export a recording on Mac

The Export .txt / .srt button at the top of the page has two choices:

  • Plain text (.txt): the title, date and time, and duration, then each line as [mm:ss] with the translation indented below it.
  • Subtitles (.srt): a subtitle file with timestamps, containing both the original and the translation.

The button is dimmed when the recording has no lines yet. The app opens the standard macOS save dialog.

Summaries have their own export (a .md file). See Meeting summaries.

Share on iPhone and iPad

The share button at the top of the detail screen opens the iOS share sheet. What you share is plain text: the title and language pair, each line (timestamp, original, translation), and the summary if there is one. The app doesn't share the audio file yet.

Audio won't play

If you turned on Encryption on your Mac and then moved to another computer or reinstalled the operating system, the encryption key may be gone. The audio then can't play, but the transcript, translation, and summary are still intact. See Privacy and your data.
