How to create notes?

Updated over a week ago

Overview

Notes is the “record hub” of Looktech AI Glasses. It helps you capture information in two ways, and then view, search, export, or delete your notes in the Looktech app:

  • Recording → Transcription → Summary

    Best for meetings, interviews, classes, and long-form voice notes.

  • Memo Notes (chat with Memo, optional photos)

    Best for hands-free note-taking while moving, and for scenarios where you want photos + text together.

Think of Notes as your portable meeting minutes assistant, idea journal, voice memo notebook, and field log.

Where to Find Notes

Open the Looktech app and go to Notes from the home screen. You’ll see a list of notes. Tap any note to open the full details.

Each note includes:

  • An auto-generated title

  • Date & time

  • A tag indicating how the note was created

#Memo: Notes created from conversations with Memo

#Recording: Notes created from audio recordings and transcription

Recording Notes

Best For

  • Meeting minutes, interviews, classes

  • Long-form thinking, reflections, brainstorming

  • Continuous recording where pauses won’t interrupt your flow

Key Features

  • The glasses stream and save audio to your phone in real time

  • After recording, the app automatically transcribes the full content

  • Once transcription is complete, the app generates:

    • An auto title

    • Structured sections such as a summary, highlights, action items, and more

  • Speaker detection is supported:

    • Different speakers are shown in different colors

    • You can edit speaker names manually

  • If an audio file is available, you can use playback controls

Important: Audio is stored locally only. If the local audio file is deleted, it cannot be recovered.

How to Record

Start a Recording (on the glasses)

  • Double-press the AI Button (left temple) to start recording

    The recording will be saved to your phone.

While Recording

You’ll see:

  • The glasses’ working indicator turns orange during recording

  • A Pause button and recording duration in the app

Pause / Resume

  • You can pause or resume recording manually in the app.

End a Recording

  • On the glasses: short-press the AI Button to stop

  • Or in the app: tap End

Auto-Stop Rules

  • Maximum recording length: 2 hours (auto-stops when timed out)

  • If recording stays paused for more than 10 minutes, it auto-stops

Memo Notes

Best For

  • Quick notes while walking, biking, cooking, or doing hands-on work

  • Photo-backed notes (devices, exhibits, signs, whiteboards, products, etc.)

  • Conversational note-taking: capture ideas while you talk

Key Features

  • Notes created through Memo conversations are automatically tagged #Memo

  • You can ask Memo to take a photo and save it in the note

Tip: After “Hey Memo” becomes available, Memo Notes will be even better for a fully hands-free experience.

Note Management

Ask Memo about your notes

Notes can be used as an external knowledge base that Memo can reference. You can ask Memo to search your Notes and answer questions, for example:

  • “Tell me the action items from my marketing meeting last Wednesday.”

  • “What was the idea I saved before for my Italian trip?”

Export & Delete

In the top-right corner of a note, you can:

  • Export audio (if available)

  • Export transcript and summary

  • Delete the note

Language Support

  • Supports Chinese, Japanese, and English

  • The recognition language follows your app language/system language

  • For best accuracy, make sure the correct language is set in the app before recording.

Recommended Use Cases

  • Meetings: record → auto summary → extract action items → export to your team

  • Interviews / podcasts / user research: transcript + speaker separation + tap-to-jump playback verification

  • Study: record lectures → review summary fast → use transcript for details

  • Brainstorming: long recording without interruptions, or quick Memo notes for single ideas

  • Field notes (recommended): Memo photo + voice context to capture “what you saw” and “what it means.”

Tips for Better Results

  1. Choose Recording Notes for long sessions—pauses won’t interrupt your thinking.

  2. Choose Memo Notes when you need photos or hands-free notes.

  3. Set the correct app language before recording for better transcription accuracy.

  4. Don’t uninstall the app before exporting important audio—local audio will be removed and cannot be restored.

  5. Rename speakers (e.g., “Speaker 1/2”) to real names for clearer meeting notes.

Privacy & Security (Audio vs. Notes)

To protect your privacy, Notes uses a deliberate storage approach: audio stays on your phone; notes sync across devices.

Audio Storage & Access

  • Audio files are stored locally on your current phone only

  • When you sign in on another device or in another app environment, audio will not be available (and playback controls may not appear)

Audio Deletion

Audio is removed when:

  • You delete the note (the associated local audio is deleted together), or

  • You uninstall the app (local audio is removed as well)

Notes Sync & Encryption

  • Note content (transcript, summary, structured points, etc.) syncs so you can access it across devices

  • Notes are protected with an encrypted transmission and encrypted storage
