AuraNote
User Guide

From every button on the recorder to turning a conversation into a transcript, notes and a mind map. Six short chapters.

01 · Hardware

Meet your
AuraNote.

Designed to disappear. As thin as a card, it slips into a pocket or a notebook, or onto the back of your phone — and goes almost unnoticed while it records.

02 · Basics

Power
& recording

Everything happens along the top: the right button powers the recorder and starts recording, the left switch picks the mode. Choose an action below to see how it works.

03 · Bluetooth

Connect
your recorder

Connect from the AuraNote app — there’s no need to pair it in your phone’s Bluetooth settings first.

The recorder attached to the back of a phone
  1. 01
    Turn on the recorder

    Hold the right button for 3 seconds to turn it on and keep it near your phone. A blinking Bluetooth icon means it’s waiting to connect.

  2. 02
    Allow Bluetooth access

    The first time, allow AuraNote to use Bluetooth when prompted. On Android, you may also need to allow “Nearby devices”, depending on the system version.

  3. 03
    Start connecting

    After you log in, the app looks for your recorder by itself. You can also tap “Connect recorder” at the top of Home, or go to Mine → My Devices.

  4. 04
    Choose your recorder

    When your recorder appears, tap Connect. Once it shows “Connected”, the Bluetooth icon on the recorder stops blinking. The first recorder you connect is bound to your account and activates the Free Plan.

04 · Recordings

Recordings move
on their own

When the recorder is connected, new recordings transfer to your phone over Bluetooth automatically.

  1. 01Stay connected

    Keep the recorder near your phone with the AuraNote app open.

  2. 02Watch it transfer

    The top of Home shows “Transferring” and how far along it is. You can keep using the app while it works.

  3. 03Keep it close

    Long recordings take a while. If you leave the app, the transfer picks up where it left off next time.

  4. 04Find it on Home

    Finished recordings appear under “Not Transcribed” on Home. You can also import audio or video files you already have with the “+” button.

05 · AI

Transcripts, notes
& mind maps

One recording, four steps, and text you can actually use.

  1. 01Pick a recording

    Open a recording on Home.

  2. 02Start transcribing

    Pick a note template — meeting, interview, lecture and more, or your own — then tap “Start transcribing”. Minutes are only used when you start.

  3. 03Let the cloud work

    You can leave the page. Allow notifications and AuraNote tells you when the transcript and notes are ready.

  4. 04See the results

    Switch between the transcript and your notes, open the mind map, or ask anything about the recording.

06 · Troubleshooting

Common
questions

The recorder doesn’t show up in my phone’s Bluetooth settings

That’s expected. Connect from the AuraNote app instead. Some phones only list it in Bluetooth settings once it’s connected.

The app can’t find the recorder

Check Bluetooth permissions, close any other app that’s using the recorder, move it close to your phone and restart it, then scan again from the connect page.

My recordings aren’t showing up on my phone

Make sure the recorder is connected (its Bluetooth icon isn’t blinking). Keep the AuraNote app open and the recorder close to your phone; the transfer continues automatically.

It’s stuck on “Transcribing”

Check your network and that your plan still has minutes left. Leave the details page and refresh the list. If it still doesn’t finish, note the file name and when you submitted it, and contact support.
