# Recording with the Desktop App

Record Zoom, Teams, Slack huddles, Google Meet, and other calls on your computer. Auto-record is on by default; no bot joins the conversation.

<div class="os-toggle"></div>

## Install and sign in

<div data-os="windows">

Install [Tamloot from the Microsoft Store](https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/tamloot/9P2FSMKJHW64). Sign in and allow microphone access when prompted. Updates arrive through the Store.

</div>

<div data-os="macos">

1. [Download for Mac](https://downloads.tamloot.cc/mac/Tamloot-mac-arm64.dmg) — Apple Silicon, M1 or later.
2. Open the `.dmg`, drag **Tamloot** into **Applications**, and sign in.
3. Allow **Microphone**, **Screen Recording**, and **Accessibility** in **System Settings → Privacy & Security**. Restart Tamloot after granting permissions.

</div>

## Record a conversation

Start a call. A **Meeting Detected** notice offers **Record Now** or **Don't Record**. Recording starts automatically when the short countdown ends.

To start manually, choose **Start recording**. With no call detected, **Start audio recording** captures in-person or desktop audio.

A red timer confirms recording is active. Choose **Stop Recording** when done, or let recording stop when the call ends. Closing the app window keeps Tamloot running in the menu bar or system tray.

Within a few minutes, open **Sessions** in the dashboard for the transcript and notes. Very short recordings, roughly under 20 seconds, are skipped.

<div data-os="macos">

## Notes and people on Mac

While recording, type in **Notes for this conversation** and use **Add people** to link participants or create someone new. Both save as you go. Your notes guide the AI notes afterward.

If you switch screens, a small bar keeps **Return to Notes** and **Stop Recording** within reach.

The Mac sidebar also has **Today**, **Sessions**, and **People** for your schedule and history. **Open in Dashboard** takes you to the full web app. Windows is for recording only.

</div>

Make sure everyone knows the conversation is being recorded. If recording won't start, check you're signed in, permissions are granted, and the app says **Monitoring for sessions**.
