BOYA Notra Q&A

Q1Can Notra still attach if my phone doesn’t support MagSafe?

Yes. A magnetic ring is included, which you can attach to your phone or phone case for secure magnetic mounting.

Q2Is Notra compatible with iOS and Android devices?

Yes. Simply download the BOYA Notra app from the App Store or Google Play to get started.

Q3How do I transfer recording files?

Transfer files via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to the BOYA Notra App or web. You can also temporarily enable USB-C file access mode to read files directly via cable. This mode auto-disables on shutdown, helping prevent unauthorized access if the device is lost.

Q4Can Notra be used offline?

Yes, you can record offline. Recordings will auto-sync to your account once reconnected to the internet. AI transcription and summary currently requires an internet connection for optimal performance. Local transcription is planned for future updates.

Q5Can I use the device without the BOYA Notra App?

Recording with Notra requires device binding through the app, and core AI features such as transcription, summary, and mind maps are exclusively available via the app.

Q6Is my data secure?

Absolutely. Security is our top priority. Your data is encrypted throughout the entire process, from the device to transmission and cloud storage. Our cloud database complies with strict international certifications, including ISO 14001, 20000 standards. You remain in full control of your data and can choose whether to sync it to the cloud. Even if the device is lost, your data cannot be accessed by others.

Q7Can I use Notra without buying a membership?

Yes. Once you pair the device with the BOYA Notra app, a Starter plan is automatically activated, giving you 320 free transcription minutes per month and basic templates for daily use.

If you need higher quotas or advanced templates and features, you can upgrade to Pro/Ultimate or purchase transcription packs.

Q8Many phone apps can record meetings and generate notes. What advantages does Notra offer?

Many phone apps perform well for meeting notes. As a dedicated recording device, however, Notra offers clear advantages:

Always ready with one-press recording, no need to unlock your phone or open an app, and no interruptions from notifications.
Three recording modes: in-person, phone calls, and Bluetooth earbud conversations, covering more real-world scenarios.
Works independently without draining your phone’s battery or storage.
Clearer audio with AI noise cancellation, even in noisy environments.
After recording, powerful AI generates structured summaries, to-dos, and mind maps for easy review and sharing.

Notra makes capturing and organizing important conversations more reliable and efficient, giving you greater peace of mind in your work.
