Voice notes: record an audio memo in Flots

Équipe Flots2 min read

An idea on your commute, instructions given out loud as you leave a meeting, something to remember while your hands are full: writing isn't always possible, or even the best option. With voice notes, Flots gives you the choice. Talk, Flots records.

Record a voice note from Docs

On iPhone and Android, a new button in Docs opens the recorder. One tap to start, another to pause if you're interrupted, a last one to stop and preview before saving for good. Each voice note can run up to 2 hours: a warning kicks in well before the limit, so a recording never gets cut off mid-flow.

Filed into your projects and categories, as you record

You pick the project or category the voice note belongs to right as you record it, exactly like a regular file. A client meeting recap lands in the right folder with no separate filing step.

It's then accessible from its own tab in Docs, alongside PDFs and images: "Voice notes" gathers every recording, wherever it was filed.

Listen anywhere, even from a computer

Recording happens on mobile, but listening isn't limited to the device that captured it. Open the voice note from a computer and it plays right in the browser, with a waveform and a speed control to skip through a long meeting faster.

What it doesn't do (yet)

A voice note stays an audio recording: Flots doesn't transcribe it to text for now, so you listen back to it without being able to read it. If you need a written trace, regular note-taking and automatic task extraction remain the right move: see the notes guide for that.

Voice notes round out the Flots Documents space, already built to store and find your files alongside your tasks and projects. A way to capture an idea as fast as it comes to you, without reaching for the keyboard.

Record your first voice note in Flots.
