01Get to know Note One

Your recorder and accessories

Note One records meetings, interviews, lectures, voice memos, and phone calls. The UMEVO App connects your recorder to your phone; UMEVO Web lets you work with synced content in a browser.

Check the contents before starting. If an item is missing or damaged, contact support@umevo.ai.

02Device basics

Charge Note One and identify the controls

• Display: shows device status, recording mode, and battery information.
• Recording Mode Switch: slide down for NOTE Mode; slide up for CALL Mode.
• Rear charging contacts: align the supplied charging/data cable with the contacts on the back.

Before a long recording

1. Connect the supplied cable to the rear contacts, then connect its USB end to a suitable power source. The device guide specifies 5 V / 1 A and approximately 1.5 hours for charging.
2. Check battery indication on the device or in the app's connected device information screen.
3. Check available battery and storage, disconnect the charging setup, and make a short test recording before an important conversation.

03First-time setup

Connect and activate in the UMEVO App

Have your phone, Note One, and an internet connection ready. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth before pairing.

1. Install UMEVO. Search for UMEVO in the App Store or Google Play. Create an account or sign in.
2. Turn on or wake Note One. Hold the main button for three seconds if powered off, or briefly press it to wake an already-on device.
3. Open the device connection control. From the file library, tap the upper-left device control and choose UMEVO Note One.
4. Allow requested permissions. Follow Bluetooth, nearby-device, or location prompts shown by your phone. These depend on your iOS or Android version.
5. Select and connect. Check the model and serial number if more than one device appears.
6. Complete account binding. The first successful binding activates Note One. Return to the library and check connection status.

Your new-device offer is applied automatically at first activation; no code is needed. See AI minutes and benefits.

04In-person conversations

Record meetings, lectures, interviews, and voice memos

Choose NOTE Mode when the sound is in the room rather than coming through a phone's earpiece.

1. Slide the small switch down for NOTE Mode.
2. Place Note One on a stable surface near the conversation. Avoid rubbing fabric and do not cover microphones with papers or objects. For a voice memo, hold it near your voice.
3. Hold the Record Button for about one second until you feel one vibration.
4. Record independently: your phone need not stay connected. Locking or disconnecting it does not interrupt device recording.
5. Hold the button again for about one second. Two vibrations confirm recording has stopped and saved.
6. Transfer and play a short section to check audio before deleting any copies.

You can record before activation, after signing out, or after unbinding. Binding is needed to connect the device to your app account; online AI processing requires internet. For recordings made offline, open All Files → From Device → Meeting Mode or Call Mode → Add to List. View the illustrated steps →

05Phone conversations

Record a phone call in CALL Mode

1. Put Note One in its magnetic case and attach it securely to the back of the phone.
2. Slide the mode switch up to CALL Mode before recording.
3. Use the phone's earpiece. Hold the Record Button for about one second; confirm one vibration.
4. After the call, hold the button for about one second to stop and save; confirm two vibrations.
5. Transfer the saved file and review audio in the UMEVO App.

Ask participants for permission where required and follow applicable recording laws and organizational policies.

06Record from the app

Use Start Recording, Pause, Mark, and End

The app's Start Recording control starts a recording on Note One, not your phone's microphone. Keep the recorder connected when using app controls.

1. Connect Note One and select the recording mode on the device.
2. Open the recording control from the file library and tap Start Recording.
3. Use Pause to pause and resume. Use Mark for important moments; the panel also offers Input and Take Photo notes.
4. Tap End, then End and save, or Continue recording if not finished.
5. Return to the library, complete transfer, and open the saved recording.

07Move recordings to your phone

Transfer by Bluetooth, Wi-Fi fast transfer, or cable

Stop and save before transfer. Files cannot be transferred while Note One is recording.

Default Bluetooth transfer

1. Wake Note One, open the UMEVO App, and connect.
2. Check device recordings in the library and follow transfer prompts. Automatic recording transfer is supported.
3. Wait for transfer to complete and check playback. If an offline recording is missing from All Files, find it under From Device and tap Add to List.

No router or internet connection is needed. Bluetooth transfers complete recordings even with the phone's Wi-Fi off. Fully transferred audio remains playable after disconnecting the recorder and taking the phone offline.

Optional Wi-Fi fast transfer

1. Select Wi-Fi fast transfer when offered by the app.
2. Enable phone Wi-Fi and follow the prompt to join Note One's network or approve the system connection request.
3. Keep devices nearby and follow progress. After transfer, the phone returns to its previous network automatically.

This direct local connection needs no router, existing Wi-Fi network, or internet access. Without fast transfer, Bluetooth is the default. Mobile data can provide internet for AI processing.

Wired transfer and OTG

Use the supplied data cable to transfer to a phone or computer. For a phone, the OTG adapter connects it to the device cable. Align the rear contacts and follow destination file-access or import prompts.

08Turn audio into notes

Generate a transcript, summary, and mind map

1. Finish transferring or importing the saved recording and check playback.
2. Get online and check available AI minutes.
3. Tap Generate and choose Auto Generate or Custom Generate.
4. Auto Generate uses the automatic setup. Custom Generate lets you choose available settings, speaker labeling, audio language, and a summary template before the first summary.
5. Tap Generate Now and follow progress.
6. Open Source for the transcript and Note for the summary; view the generated mind map.

UMEVO supports 114 transcription languages. A single mixed-language recording is not currently supported. Transcription happens after recording, not in real time.

We recommend files of 180 minutes or less for manageable processing time. This is a recommendation, not a fixed duration or file-size limit.

09Check and refine the results

Review your transcript, summary, and mind map

Move between Source and Note. Use playback and timestamps to check names, numbers, and decisions against original audio.

• Speaker labels: replace Speaker 1 and Speaker 2 with participant names.
• Editing: edit transcripts and summaries after checking key details.
• Mind maps: view the visual structure. Editing and separate mind-map regeneration are not currently supported.

Summary templates

Choose a template before the first summary, use the template community, or create your own. Custom templates are private by default; members can choose to publish them to the community.

10Use your files elsewhere

Import audio and export finished content

Import an existing recording

1. Open audio import in the app, or Import Audio in UMEVO Web.
2. Select MP3, WAV, or M4A files from the phone or computer. Multiple-file import is supported.
3. Open the imported audio, check playback, and use the same Generate workflow.

Promotional minutes also work for imported audio, including phone recordings. Users without a bound device can import audio and purchase a plan or minute pack for AI processing.

Export from the Share panel

1. Open the recording and tap the share icon near the top.
2. Under Export file, choose Recording, Transcript, Note, or Mind Map.
3. Choose an available format and save or share using the phone's destination options.

Share a link

Choose Share link in the Share panel. Recipients can open it without signing in. Revoke it to stop further access and check the shared content before sending.

11Phone and computer

Manage cloud sync and use UMEVO Web

Private Cloud Sync is enabled by default and syncs original audio, transcripts, summaries, and mind maps for use in the app and browser.

1. Open More → Private Cloud Sync.
2. Use Enable Private Cloud Sync to control future syncing.
3. Enable Sync only on Wi-Fi to limit automatic sync to Wi-Fi internet connections.
4. Review storage and cloud cleanup before deleting anything.

Work on a computer

Sign in to UMEVO Web in a browser with the same account. Access synced content, or import audio directly and generate transcripts and summaries. Web and App share one AI-minute balance. No installable UMEVO Desktop app is currently available.

Turning sync off stops future syncing but keeps existing cloud data. AI upload still works. Cloud storage currently has no set capacity limit or additional storage payment.

12Device ownership

Switch phones, manage binding, and transfer ownership

Switch to a new phone

Install UMEVO and sign in with the same account; unbinding is not needed just to change phones. You can sign in on two phones, but Note One connects to only one at a time.

Give the device to another person

1. Sign in to the currently bound account and use the device unbinding option.
2. Unbinding removes the account association but keeps device recordings. The device need not be nearby or Bluetooth-connected.
3. The new owner signs in and follows connection and binding steps.

If the original account cannot be accessed, contact support with the device SN and binding problem.

Multiple devices and reset

One account can bind multiple Note One devices. AI generation in a multiple-device account uses the first device's minutes. Each SN can bind to only one account at a time.

A factory reset restores defaults without deleting recordings. Unbinding and factory resetting leave existing phone and cloud content unchanged.

13Understand your balance

Use your new-device benefit and AI minutes

First activation automatically provides 30,000 minutes per month for three consecutive months, refreshed according to the activation date. Afterwards, the free Starter plan provides 400 minutes per month. The offer does not automatically become a paid subscription.

• Benefits follow the device: each SN receives the offer only once. An existing account can claim it by binding a brand-new Note One.
• Changing accounts: does not restart the offer. A new owner inherits the remaining benefit with its original start date.
• Priority: promotional minutes, then plan minutes, then purchased minute packs.
• Unused allowances: free and promotional minutes do not carry over. Purchased packs are valid for one month from purchase.
• Failed AI tasks: do not deduct minutes. A successful retry deducts minutes; a complete rerun charges the original audio's full duration.
• Summary-only changes: changing the template and regenerating only the summary is free.

Paid subscriptions renew automatically; automatic renewal can be canceled. See Note One FAQs for plans and current pricing.
