I realized the other day that my Samsung cellphone has a shortcut button that sends you to the voice recorder. In poking around the options I also realized that you could set a default destination for every voice note recorded. When I think of something that I want to remember later I can record it and my cellphone automatically sends it to my email address. When I get to a computer I can then process the voice notes as I would any incoming email.
- On the four-way nav button on my Samsung I hit the right one to go to the voice recorder.
- I hit the center button to start and stop recording a voice note.
- Open the Options menu and set the Default Destination to Email Address > your@email.com
Probably a good idea to make sure you won’t get charged too much for all these text messages you’ll be sending. On my T-Mobile account I have 400 text messages for $4.99 (and that counts multimedia messages and text messages as the same).
