Name: Chui

Catch a thought before it goes away. Open Chui on your Garmin, press START, say it, and press START again to stop. Your voice memo arrives in your Chui account, with a transcript and a cleaned-up note in the language you spoke.

Sign in once using the sign-in sheet in Garmin Connect on your phone. Use your usual Chui account with Apple, Google or Microsoft. Nothing to copy.

Phone not nearby? Chui keeps the audio on your watch until it can send it. When the phone is away, the early version stops at two minutes. The recording screen says so, with a short vibration ten seconds beforehand. Automatic stops vibrate and play an alert tone where supported. With the phone nearby there is no two-minute cut-off. Recording stops if the watch cannot reserve more storage, even with the phone nearby. The screen tells you how much was kept. Bring your phone close and open Chui to send and make room. Background retries also send finished memos, but Garmin can postpone those retries.

Keep Chui visible while you speak: Garmin stops microphone recording when you leave the app. Only watches supported by Garmin's Audio Capture API can install this app. The Forerunner 165 is not supported.

This is an early public release. Storage and Bluetooth delivery vary between watches and have not yet been measured on a real watch. The app reports recording interruptions, missing bytes and delivery delays so we can improve it. Your saved memos stay bound to the account that recorded them; signing in to another account does not send them there.

A Chui account and Garmin Connect on your paired phone are required. Your normal Chui plan applies. Manage your Chui account and plan at chui.io.
