Frequently Asked Questions
What audio format are the recordings saved in?โผ
Recordings are saved in WebM (Opus codec) or WAV format depending on your browser. Chrome and Firefox typically use WebM/Opus, which provides good quality at small file sizes. You can convert the downloaded file to MP3 or other formats using a separate converter if needed.
Is there a maximum recording length?โผ
There is no hard limit on recording length, but very long recordings may consume significant browser memory. For recordings longer than 30 minutes, consider saving periodically. If the browser tab crashes or is closed, unsaved recordings will be lost.
Why can't I start recording?โผ
The most common reason is that microphone permission was denied in your browser. Check your browser's site permissions and ensure microphone access is allowed. Also verify that no other application is exclusively using your microphone, and that your microphone is properly connected and not muted.
