Click the 'New Event' button, then hit the mic icon in the top left of the screen to begin capturing audio.

Studying remotely? Click the drop down below the mic and select ‘Record Screen Audio’. Follow the prompts to get a clean recording directly from your browser or application.

While recording, click the lightning bolt icon on the bottom right of your screen, this will bring up four reactions you can use while listening for quick labels to review later.

Collections are where you can group your recordings together by class, professor, credit or any other category.

If you used Labels while capturing audio notes, you’ll have a few anchor points throughout your recording to come back to first.

To play these moments back, click the Label icon on the audio pane. Playback will begin immediately.

Select a moment you highlighted during class to come back to and listen again.

Type out a brief note with the main takeaway point from that moment. For example, if the professor provided a definition of a term, annotate the audio with that definition.

Soon you’ll have a great set of multimedia notes, ready to study from whenever you need them!

Focus on audio, or zero-in on your text notes free of distractions through Reading View.

Your recording is the spine of your Glean notes, and it’s incredibly simple to get started.
