After upgrading my #Android phone a while back, I decided to take the old phone (Pixel 6) and backup all my photos, videos etc.
As I am copying them to my computer I was having a hard time finding where the voice recordings were located.
I take a LOT of voice recordings & haven't backed them up in years.
After doing a bit of reading it sounds like #Google sealed them off and you have to have root access unless you share them online.
WTF?!
#PocketPC would never do this to me.
Hypothetically you can access and download the voice recording from https://recorder.google.com/ if you have chosen to whore out even more of your data to a corporation.
I will find another way. Worst case scenario I will play the recordings one by one into another microphone and make a recording of the recording.
This is absolutely fucking ridiculous!!!
They easily let me copy my videos & my pictures & my downloads, all accessible when I plug into a computer... but not my voice recordings!?!?!
The Recorder app available only on Pixel brings the power of search and AI to your audio recordings. You can record meetings, lectures, jam sessions — anything you want to save and listen to later. Recorder automatically transcribes speech and tags sounds like music, applause, and more, so you can search your recordings to quickly find the part you’re looking for. All Recorder functionality can run on-device, or choose to back-up your audio files and revisit online.
