Voice: Web recordings
Keyboard Shortcuts
Keyboard shortcuts in the recording editor.
Browser-editor shortcuts are separate from the global hotkey used by Ardela Voice for desktop.
View the current editor shortcuts from the recorder gear menu. A shortcut is ignored while focus is in an editable field when using it would replace normal typing.

Browser behaviour
When leaving would put unsaved capture audio at risk, Ardela warns before the page closes or navigates away. Wait for the save or upload state to settle before leaving.
Desktop Voice hotkey
The desktop app uses a configurable global dictation hotkey:
- Windows default:
Alt - macOS default:
Ctrl+Shift
Desktop supports hold-to-record and press-to-start/stop modes. See Ardela Voice for desktop.
