Frequently Asked Questions

For your Enjoyment and Edification

Why can't I record sound / why is the recorded sound too quiet?

Please check your microphone volume is loud enough.

To adjust your microphone volume, please right click on the voice recording widget (on the main page), then select "settings". From here you can select the microphone tab to access the microphone volume slider.

Why didn't my friend get the message I sent them?

Perhaps you misspelled their email address? You can look in your control panel to see if you used the correct email address for a message.

How long can my recorded message be?

There is no limit on message length.

How long will my message be stored on Vocaroo?

There is currently no deletion of messages, however limits may be added in the future if and when Vocaroo's popularity increases.

Can messages be downloaded and saved to my computer?

Not at the moment, but if enough people request this feature it will be added.

Yes!

When are you going to make a better looking message playback widget for my blog/website/etc?

It's been done! Check this out:

A little better than before, no? You can get the updated HTML code by clicking "Post on the internet" under any Vocaroo message.

Is Vocaroo going to be in Beta forever?

No. Eventually it will cease to exist altogether: The sun will die and go cold, and the small fraction of humanity that leaves Earth will have little need of Vocaroo packed together in a cramped generation ship.
