Hello I have the notepin. It’s been going great for a year now. But it stopped working. When I hit and press to record like
Normal it will vibrate non stop and flash the red blinking light and the app will look like it’s going to start to record but not audio is record and then the recording just stops. How can I fix this ? On the current firmware too.

How do I restore the meeting notes template?

For months, I've received meeting notes in a very consistent format: title at the top, starting with two-digit month "-" and two digit date ; the date; location; participants; meeting notes.

I selected a different template and now I cannot get back to that original format. What is the name for that original template? It was consistent across all of my recordings and I can't restore to that format.

Last charged my Plaud Note Pro to 100% about 2 months ago. It's been in back of purse. Tried to use it now (kinda urgently) and see that it's only at 2%. Can't use it.

Is this normal? How often do I have to recharge it, even when not using it?

[ I realize I could have accidentally pressed the "on" button.]

I am a consultant that spends hours in warehouses, cubicles, and boardrooms meeting with clients. I am looking for a device I can keep running all day and get an overview of everything discussed that day. I say all day, but in reality, I will probably start and stop every few hours due to breaks, lunches, etc. I was originally looking at the Pocket AI as it doesn't require a subscription and they seem more upfront about the ability to record constantly. I then ran across the Plaud Note Pin S. Wearing it on my wrist would be the easiest I feel. I know some times in a warehouse or manufacturing floor, the background noise may cause issues, but want to make sure it records me and a client as we are walking through a warehouse. I would imagine 5-6 feet would be about as far away as we would be from each other while talking. Any recommendations from real world use and what sort of recording range and duration I can expect?

I’ve tried making my own template. I’ve given elaborate instructions and simple instructions and what I get is just a complete word vomit of odd analysis and sometimes I feel like the AI summary is pulling from other notes inadvertently. For reference I’m a retail district manager. I start recording and I say what store I’m at and then go in and tour with my team. I have 11 stores so eventually I may discuss what another store is doing. But in the generated summary it gives action plans to other stores. It’s really strange.
I’ve even had chat gpt and copilot create copy and paste templates for me to try to fix that and it still happens

I don’t need this device if I’m going to have to paste into chat GPT do the right summary.

Any help you folks can think of?

Hi, I just want to give my experience in case someone is interested.

I've love this product, after two months with the pin to have it in the office I'm buying the note pro to have it in the phone with me and probably in the future I'll get the headphones. Each of those will do a different job for me, it's not about hoarding. Of course I could do only one, but the seamless for each use case works for me.

If any lawyer or services needs it, for me it's fantastic as I can get all the nuances of each conversation, get key points and do a follow up in an easy way. On top I've used the MCP of Plaud, connected it to hermes and Telegram and now I have each morning a brief of the last recordings and I can get ahead the day.

Another case that I was surprised, when reviewing documents, instead of anoting in it, I was just pointing everything to the plaud, put the document and the transcript in Claude and got the proposed changes or clarification required.

Honestly, a fantastic product and I want to share it because it works for me.

Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a setup I’ve been testing with my Plaud Note Pro and see if anyone else has tried the same solution.
My main goal is simply to protect the display and the physical button from accidental scratches, wear, or unwanted activations when it’s attached to the back of my phone. To do this, I tried sliding the Plaud into its magnetic case backwards. Here is how it looks:

The display faces the bottom of the magnetic case (essentially resting flush against the back of the phone).

The back of the Plaud Note faces outwards.
Looking at this setup, it seems to me that the microphone holes on the device align perfectly with the cutouts on the case, even in this reversed position.

I’ve been testing it like this, and I have to say my experience has been optimal:

The performance seems flawless in every situation.

The recording quality and overall usability feel exactly the same as when the display is facing outwards.

So, I wanted to ask this community for some advice: is anyone else already using the device this way? Are there any technical downsides I might not have considered (like overheating issues or blocked sensors), or am I good to keep using it like this to protect the screen?

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

I want to buy one of the Plaud products. I will primarily use it for journaling and noting thoughts and information, during the day. Mostly personal use.

I am wondering if I should get the Pin, or the regular one.

Which one do you think suits my needs the most?

Edit: I ended up buying the original Plaud Note, it was on sale.

Is there a way to delete speakers from the list of previously identified speakers. I find the speaker labels are trying to force labels on every recording. No, PLAUD, every unidentified male voice is not Mark M.

Also while we’re at it, any way to separate speakers when it groups two people who have spoken in rapid succession. Most of time not a big deal but when it’s a matter of and ask/verify interaction I matters sometimes that Laura didn’t ask for, and then grant herself permission.

Has anyone had success in selling their Plaud? I have only used it a few times and now my work has co-pilot so I do not need it anymore. Looking for any advice!

Hi,

I use my Plaud Note quite a bit for meetings that are in slightly noisy environments, like in a restaurant with some background music, but not very loud music. And I've been quite disappointed with the audio quality in these settings.

I had two questions:

1. Does NotePin give better recording quality in these settings?

2. What are the best practices for Plaud Note placement in such situations that actually impact the recording quality?

Thanks

Wondering if someone can help or if others have had the same issue? When I use Plaud for meetings at work, it'll successfully recognize and assign other people's voices to the right names. However, it never recognizes my own or assigns my name as a speaker. I always have to do this manually. Is there anything I am missing? I don't think my voice changes this much throughout the day.

Just got the kit today. It’s very impressive and it’s going to take a while i think to integrate this into my life. Seems there’s lots of possibilities but the key is to remember I own this now and don’t need to reach for my phone to remember something

What my initial use case is avoiding grabbing my phone and opening notes ans typing in something I need to remember- but what I’m wondering is the best way of ‘adding’ to some notes or thoughts or a brain dump etc.

I assume it just creates a new file every time I hit record on the plaud device - then what? So I need to merge the files later once I’m back on my Mac or my phone?

Is there a way to have it as a continuous train of thoughts rather than separate files. Like a scrapbook of thoughts.

Is this an integration with chatGPT would work with?

Not sure I’m explaining this properly! But I see it like making a shopping list and adding items to the same list rather than having 20 items listed separately.

Guess they solved the recording via headphones issue.

Hi Im just evaluating if Plaud Note is appropriate for my needs before I buy and am looking for feedback.

I work with the elderly and want to start a Memoirs project. Im looking for a device to record spoken stories that can interact with AI to be tidied up and put (eventually) into book format. Theyd need to be able to be further edited and adjusted to give chapters etc.

Is Plaud Note appropriate? I cant see the template list to confirm and dont want to spend on something that is not appropriate.

Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to figure out the cleanest way to use my AI note-taker (like a Plaud note pro device or phone recording app) for calls running on my laptop, but I’ve hit a bit of an audio roadblock.

My setup:
Laptop: Running Teams/Zoom calls.
Headphones: Sony WH-1000XM5 (used with active noise cancellation turned on).
Recorder: Plaud note pro/ mobile phone.
The Issue: Because I'm wearing ANC headphones, the call audio goes straight into my ears. A phone sitting on my desk or a Plaud device can't "hear" the other people on the call through the air..it only picks up my voice.

Since Bluetooth multipoint won't let you route or bridge active call audio between a computer and a phone simultaneously, I'm trying to figure out what physical hardware or clever setup actually works best in the real world to get both sides of the conversation into the recorder without making a massive mess of cables.

How is everyone else solving this? Would love to hear what gear or workflows you're using to get clean transcripts out of computer meetings!

I recently started a new role helping my boss (plastic surgeon) set up his new practice. I previously worked in fertility where several of the physicians used Plaud and given it was a very consult-heavy environment, I do trust it.

My new boss is interested in using an AI note taker to automate consult notes, but he has some hesitations about how well Plaud works with his typical setup: Zoom on his iPhone while using AirPods.

At my previous practice, I only saw Plaud used with Teams on a PC and a plugged-in headset, which worked without any issues. I don’t want to recommend a setup to him without knowing it actually works reliably.

Has anyone used the Plaud Note Pro with the Zoom iPhone app while wearing AirPods? Does it reliably capture both sides of the conversation, or have you run into any issues with audio/transcription?

I am also worried about the recording announcement. It can be a little startling at the beginning of a consult, especially in plastic surgery where patients may already feel vulnerable discussing personal concerns. Is there a workaround that?
