Make a recording in Voice Memos on Apple Vision Pro
The Voice Memos app is an iPad app that works with Apple Vision Pro. With Voice Memos, you can use Apple Vision Pro as a portable recording device to record personal notes, classroom lectures, musical ideas, and more. You can fine-tune your recordings with editing tools like trim, playback speed, skip silence, and resume.
Record voice memos using the built-in microphone, or an external microphone.
When Voice Memos is turned on in iCloud settings or preferences, your recordings appear on all devices where you’re signed in with the same Apple ID. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Show All, then turn on Voice Memos.

Note: For your privacy, when you use Voice Memos to make recordings, an orange dot appears at the top of your view to indicate your microphone is in use.
Use another app while recording
While you’re recording, you can use another app, as long as it doesn’t play audio on your Apple Vision Pro. For example, you might have Notes open so you can read notes you want to record.
While recording, open to Home View, then open another app.
If the app starts playing or recording sound, Voice Memos stops recording.
