What Fieldy does

Once connected and powered on, Fieldy transcribes whenever you tell it to: tap “Start Transcribing” in the app to begin, and “End Transcribing” when you’re done.


Quick start

Important Pair your Fieldy through the app, not through your phone’s Bluetooth settings. Going through your phone’s Bluetooth settings directly is one of the most common setup issues.

Tip If no light appears when you first power on, charge the device first.


Pairing your Fieldy

Follow these steps the first time you connect Fieldy to your phone, or after a factory reset.

Always pair through the app, not through your phone’s Bluetooth settings. Using your phone’s Bluetooth settings directly is the most common setup issue.


Setting your Fieldy up

Next steps after pairing your device successfully:
