Google adds Speaker labels to transcripts made by the highly-regarded Recorder app for Pixels

You can assign names to each speaker listed on the transcript

It should be pointed out that Google says that Speaker labels will not work if your phone is too hot (uh oh fellow Pixel 6 Pro users). After updating to version 4.2, you will see a new button in the right corner of the app’s recorder UI allowing you to quickly turn on or off Speaker labels. This can also be handled in “Settings.”

After the update, the Auto-detect option for the microphone is replaced with an option to use a Bluetooth or external microphone

We do want to add that the update is not universally available yet. To see if it can be installed from the Play Store, open the Google Recorder app’s listing on the Android app storefront and scroll down to App info. The version number is the top line and remember, you want to see version 4.2 or higher.
