Recording a message
In any program where you can write or draw on the screen, you can also quickly
capture thoughts, reminders, and phone numbers by recording a message.
• In Calendar, Tasks, and Contacts, you can include a recording in the Notes
tab.
• In Notes, you can either create a stand-alone recording or include a recording
in a written note. If you want to include the recording in a note, open the
note first.
• In Inbox, you can add a recording to an email message.
