How to use Voice Recorder
Best Voice Recorder is an app for recording lectures, speakers, conversations, and other sounds. Hit the big Record button, and add markers to identify key moments as you record or play. Then you can trim, rename, or share your recordings, which are saved in Documents > Sound Recordings.
Sound Recorder won’t continue recording in the background when you use other apps. To use Sound Recorder along with other apps, use them side by side. To use Sound Recorder alongside other apps you must:
- Open Sound Recorder.
- Swipe in from the top of the screen until an opening appears behind the app, then drag the app to the left or right.(If you’re using a mouse, click the top of the screen and drag the app down until an opening appears behind it, then drag the app to the left or right.)
- Go back to Start and open a second app. It will appear next to Sound Recorder on the same screen.
- Adjust the amount of your screen you would like Sound Recorder to use by moving the bar between apps.
