When you record in your browser, MinutesGenerator uploads the audio while you record, so the recording is protected even if the tab closes.
How recordings are saved
While you record, the audio is saved on your device and uploaded in small pieces every few seconds.
If the tab closes or the computer restarts during a recording, open MinutesGenerator again in the same browser. It finishes saving the earlier recording automatically and shows a message such as An earlier recording was saved.
If you don't return to that browser, MinutesGenerator saves the audio that was already uploaded after about four hours.
For more about recording, see Use the recorder and keep a browser recording safe.
Download a recording from any device
Open the meeting from the dashboard.
Click Export.
Under Recording, click Export recording.
On a phone, open the meeting, tap Download, and choose Export recording.
Copies on this device
The Recordings page lists recordings still stored on the computer and browser you recorded with. Click Download to save one, or click the trash icon and confirm to delete that local copy. Deleting a local copy doesn't delete the meeting.
Local copies are deleted automatically about 14 days after they finish uploading. For older meetings, or from another device, use Export recording.
If minutes weren't created or the recording seems incomplete
Don't upload the recording again as a new meeting. Repeated uploads can use credits. Keep the meeting and contact support with the meeting name, the date, the browser and device you recorded on, and what happened. See What to do if your job is stuck or failed.
If you see An earlier recording is saved on this computer, keep using the same browser. The upload retries automatically. If you see Earlier audio is kept on this computer, that audio couldn't be added to its recording automatically, so contact support.
