Chapter 14 Using Voice Memo

Creating a voice memo

To record a voice memo, you can use the Voice Memo application button or the onscreen controls. To pause and resume while recording a voice memo, you must use the onscreen controls. After you finish recording a voice memo, you cannot add to or change the content, but you can assign the voice memo to a category or change the voice memo title.

To conserve storage space on your handheld, you can also store your voice memos on an expansion card.
