Question

How do I move my voice recording on my phone to my computer?

Community Answer

You can try Google Drive, or put an SD card into your phone and load it onto there (unless it's an iPhone). Then you can put that SD into your computer to download.
Question

What do I need to do if I have a large file that will take more than an hour?

Community Answer

The app might crash on your phone and stop the transfer if you're uploading a large file. Restart your phone so the memory is "fresh" before starting, and stick to multiple segments of about 20 minutes each.
