- Within the recorder, you can then choose between different functions.
- Start recording at the top left. Recording starts here after a short countdown, after which you can start speaking.
- When you have recorded the desired text, you can stop the recording under the “X”. You can then listen to the recording. If you are satisfied with the recording, you can record further recordings.
- Under the tab “Notes” you can display the notes you have written for the respective slides. These are not displayed in the recording.
- On the camera icon, you can select whether your recording should be visual as well as auditory.
