CREATING MEMORIES AND EXPERIENCES THROUGH STORY TELLING

Tips/Tricks

 

Please record a couple of test recordings to make sure you are familiar with the operation of the app before recording your first story.

 

  1. The personal greeting and the story are recorded and played back separately. When playing them back the story does not automatically start after the greeting is finished. You have to press the “skip” button at the bottom to continue to the recorded story.
  2. When recording the story you do not need to press the record button after the 3 second countdown is finished. The App does it automatically. If you are actively recording the red button at the bottom of the screen should say” End Recording”. Only press it when you are done with the story.
  3. Do not pause and try to start over during the recording session.
  4. If recording multiple stories or recoding the same story again make sure to close the app and then reopen it between each session.
  5. Turn off notifications and alerts before you start recording.
