Uploading a voice memo
1 min read
Some thoughts get recorded before Ruxpin is open: a voice memo in the car, a note dictated on a walk. You can bring those in.
Open Create, switch the mode to Upload (alongside Voice and Write), tap Choose a recording, and pick an audio file. From there it rides the same path as a live capture: transcribed, filed to the reading you picked (or left Unfiled), landed as an entry within seconds. And the same privacy promise holds. The audio is transcribed and then deleted; Ruxpin never stores your recordings.
From the Voice Memos app
Voice Memos keeps its recordings in a private space, so they don't appear in the file picker directly. Two extra taps get one across:
- In Voice Memos, tap the recording, then the share button.
- Choose Save to Files and pick any folder. On My iPhone or iCloud Drive both work.
- In Ruxpin, switch Create to Upload, tap Choose a recording, and pick it from that folder.
Sharing straight from Voice Memos into Ruxpin is on our list.
Limits
Uploads can run up to ten minutes or 25 MB. Ruxpin listens to thoughts, not lectures. If a file is over the line, you'll be told before anything is sent.
Offline? The upload waits on your phone and sends itself when the connection returns, like any capture.
