Recording your discussion

You control the whole recording from one screen: tap Start recording to begin and Stop & Submit to finish. Your recording is only submitted when you confirm.

Keep the browser tab open for the entire recording. If you try to leave the page mid-recording, the browser warns you that your recording will be lost.

1. On the recording screen, tap Start recording.
2. Speak naturally — the timer in the top bar counts your recorded time.
3. For a short pause, such as a silent activity, tap the pause button (two bars) to the left of Stop recording. The status changes to Paused and the timer stops. For a real break, such as a coffee break, stop and submit instead; the organisers reopen the link afterwards.
4. To continue, tap the green play button in the same place. The status returns to Recording.
5. When the discussion is over, tap Stop recording.
6. In the End Recording? dialog, tap Stop & Submit. The dialog shows your recorded time — if you're not done yet, tap Keep recording instead.
7. Wait while the recording uploads. The Recording Complete! page confirms your recording was submitted.

Two things worth knowing while you record:

• Short connection drops fix themselves. A red bar You are offline appears at the bottom; the recording keeps running, and the bar disappears once the connection is back — just keep the tab open.
• Once the first sentences are transcribed, a View button appears. Tap it to see the live transcript of your discussion; tap again to hide it.
