VocaLingo can turn any recorded meeting, lecture or interview into a searchable text transcript. This guide shows the fastest way to get it done.
Option A: You have a recording already
Open Speech to Text from the Tools tab.
Tap Choose and select the audio or video file from your device.
Select the language spoken in the recording.
Tap Transcribe. For a 1-hour recording, this typically takes 2-5 minutes.
The full text appears in the Text tab. Tap Copy to copy it, or explore the Essence tab for a structured summary.
Option B: Record directly in the app
Open Speech to Text and tap Record audio.
Press Record when the meeting or lecture starts.
Press Stop when done.
Tap Transcribe.
ℹ️ For long meetings, consider using a dedicated recorder app and importing the file — dedicated apps handle battery and background recording more reliably on long sessions.
What to do with the transcript
Open the Essence tab to get a summary with title, key points and takeaway
Copy the transcript and paste it into AI Chat: ask for action items, decisions made or a follow-up email
