Email supportBackend connection
The app needs the backend for sign-in, transcription, AI answers, cleanup, history, and meeting notes. If it shows offline, confirm the backend URL and server status.
Dictation quality
Use a clear microphone input and avoid noisy rooms. If cleanup is enabled, the backend can polish punctuation, capitalization, and filler words.
Meeting notes
Meeting notes require microphone recording, storage upload, transcription, and AI note generation. Long recordings may take longer to process.
