I CAN'T RECORD BY PHONE?


Yodio has discontinued its
record-by-phone feature.

You may continue to UPLOAD recordings to your Yodio account and use Yodio as usual.

How can I create a recording to upload to Yodio?

You can upload audio files into your Yodio account - .mp3 or .wav. 

  • MICROPHONE to PC - To record, you need a microphone of some type... either stand alone, or a headset (similar to that used for gaming or Skype.)
    •  
    • If your computer has a built-in program to record and save as .mp3 or .wav, use that.
      Audacity: Free Sound Editor and Recording Software Record using "Audacity", the free audio recording software that creates high quality recordings http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ Export your audio using File> "Export as .mp3" and save to your computer. Then upload it to your Yodio account.
       
    • Or, you can use a free online service like
      http://vocaroo.com/ Record and save to your computer.
  • SMARTPHONE If you don't have a microphone, do you have a SMARTPHONE? Record via the app and use the "SHARE" feature to email it to yourself. Save to your computer and upload to your Yodio account.

    • Android: Download the free app, "Smart MP3 Recorder". Click here to have it sent to your phone, or search "Smart MP3 Recorder" from the Google app store.

    • iPhone: Download free app, "MP3 Recorder-Free"
      Click here to access it from the App Store, or search "MP3 Recorder - Free" from your iPhone/iPad
    Audacity: Free Sound Editor and Recording Software
  • LAPTOP If you do not have a smart phone, do you have a laptop? Try recording to your laptop using its built-in recorder.  If your laptop has a program to record audio and save to your computer, use that. If not, use "Audacity", the free audio recording software that creates high quality recordings. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

No laptop? Try purchasing a microphone or headset for your PC (heck, you might use it for Skype someday) at Amazon.
Need it today? Run to Walmart
