# Your first recording

> From the pen to notes in a few minutes.

Every new account starts with a sample, **Sample: viewing at 42 Maple Avenue**. Open it to see what Juno writes. It doesn't count toward your recording time. If you delete it, it doesn't come back.

<Warning>
  Ask before you record. You are responsible for getting everyone's consent, and Juno asks you to confirm it.
</Warning>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Record a conversation">
    Use the pen, your phone, or any recorder.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the file">
    In the app, click **Add**, then **Upload audio files**. You can also drop audio files on the page. On your phone, tap **Choose audio files**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Keep working">
    The upload runs in the background. On a computer, leave the tab open until it says **Recording uploaded**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open your notes">
    Notes arrive in a few minutes. You'll see **Your recording "…" is ready.** Click **Open it**. We also email you the summary.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Rather use WhatsApp? Plug the pen into your phone and share the file to the Juno chat. See [Send a recording on WhatsApp](/recordings/send-on-whatsapp).
