How to Record Audio Notes on an iPad

The iPad doesn’t have a default audio recording app so you will need to download an audio recording app from the App Store such as Audio Memos or Voice Recorder (FREE). This guide shows how to use these two apps but there are plenty of alternative available for audio recording.

EditUsing Audio Memos

1. Tap the Audio Memos icon on your iPad’s Home screen to launch the Audio Memos app.
   
2. Tap the Record button at the bottom of the screen to start your recording.
   
3. Speak or play sound into your iPad’s microphone to record your audio note. Tap the Pause button to stop recording.
   
4. Tap the Play button to listen to your recording. If you are satisfied with your recording, tap the Done button.
   
5. Tap the Send button to send the audio recording to somebody.
   
6. Tap the Email button to send it to someone else via email.
   
7. Type a contact or email address into the To: field and type a message you want the recipient to read. Once you have done that, tap Send to send your email with the recording attached.
   

EditUsing Voice Recorder (FREE)

1. Tap the Voice Recorder (FREE) icon on your iPad’s Home screen to launch the Voice Recorder (FREE) app.
   
2. Tap the red button at the bottom of the screen with the white button on it. This will bring up a screen with a cassette and some more buttons.
   
3. Press the red button that says "REC" on it to start recording. Press the button again at any time to pause your recording. When the recording is paused, pressing the button again will cause it to start recording again. Press the "STOP" button once you want to stop your recording.
   
4. Tap the "SAVE AS" button to save your recording. After being tapped, a new window should appear with your previous recordings (if any). Type what you want to be the name of the recording in the "Filename" textbox. Once you typed in a name, click "Save."
   
5. To send your saved recording to someone, tap on the recording you want to send, and click on the square with the arrow symbol in the top right corner. Choose "Share", then choose one of the options.
