A51 is my first Android. In my environment, I make voice notes all day long as I drive about my business, then transfer them on my computer, where I listen to them while working there entering information into various programs: time & mileage logs, QuickBooks, Outlook, etc. It is very inefficient to have to try to transcribe directly from the phone.
How would I 1) make a one- or two-tap access to be able to record a voice note on the A51, then 2) transfer them to the computer for transcription. I freely admit my ignorance here. If there is a way to record a voice note that will automatically be transcribed and saved as a file I can transfer to my computer or emailed to myself, that will be even better.
My old Blackberry gave me a two-tap access to record a note, something I could do with barely a glance at the screen, and then the desktop software automatically connected to the BB and mapped a drive to it, so I wrote a tiny batch file to move my voice notes from BB to computer very simply. All it required was a double-click on an icon on the desktop. As obsolete as BB technology was, it provided very easy--that is few-step--ways for me to do the things my particular business requires. And as exciting as the whole graphical world of the Android/iPhone is, my business needs do not benefit from the bells & whistles; in fact that, is largely a distraction; I need the phone to be able to feed information to me while at the computer where all the relevant business applications reside.
