General Tips
For Telehealth Users: We recommend the desktop app for stable performance and Bluetooth compatibility.
For Mobile Use: Use the mobile app for convenient recording on-the-go, even with app switching or screen locking.
For low network coverage: Use the Heidi Mobile app, it will use your local system to keep a backup of the transcription until you go online. Once you are online just hit resume on that session, and stop and it will produce the transcript for you.
For Web-Based EHR: The Chrome extension is ideal for quick and seamless note-taking directly within your EHR.
