Users can start recording during a voice call by long-pressing either Essential Key, or tapping "Start recording" from within a notification at the top of the screen. After call termination, recordings are automatically saved in Essential Space so they are easy to access later; transcription provides further depth by summarising and outlining important conversations and topics.

The rollout began today and is happening automatically, though it is limited to select regions. Initially, users in the UK, India, Japan, South Korea, Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia will have access to the feature by October 7. Nothing plans to expand availability to more countries in the future.
