Notes about voice memos

You have about 180 seconds, but the maximum length of the memo
depends on available memory.

There are 3 audio cues to indicate the recording status to both parties in
an active phone conversation. The start tone plays when recording
begins. A recording tone plays every 5 seconds while the conversation is
being recorded. An ending tone signals the end of the recording.

When the recording tone starts to beep every 2 seconds, you only
have 10 seconds left for your voice memo.

If the memory is full when you try to record a new voice memo, No
space for new recording appears on the screen. You have the choice
to erase an existing voice memo to free up space for the new recording.

If you are recording an active phone conversation and you receive a
call on your second phone line, the voice memo ends and is saved
automatically.
