Voice Transcription Error
Your recording didn’t turn into text, or an error message appeared. Here’s what each message means and what to do.
Common messages
- “Transcription failed. Please try again.” A temporary hiccup. Retry.
- “We couldn’t catch any speech.” The mic didn’t pick up words. Speak a little closer.
- “Microphone permission is required.” Enable the microphone for Journoo in your phone’s settings.
- “Daily transcription limit reached.” You’ve hit the cap for today.
Recording basics
- Record up to 10 minutes at a time.
- Recording stops on its own after about 10 seconds of silence.
- Interruptions like phone calls will stop a recording, and transcribe what was recorded up to that point.
