You can now record and transcribe meetings on the go without keeping your Notion app open or your screen active.

This “quality of life” update for mobile users ensures that AI Meeting Notes run in the background, allowing you to switch to other apps for reference or lock your phone entirely to save battery during long sessions. The recording and transcription will persist regardless of your device’s state, providing a reliable way to capture every detail of a live discussion without constant manual intervention. It’s a vital improvement for field researchers and traveling professionals who need a “set it and forget it” solution for capturing high-fidelity meeting data in real-world environments.

Background transcription is enabled by default in the latest mobile app update; simply start a recording session and feel free to lock your screen or navigate away from the app.
