Troubleshooting
My meeting isn't in My meetings
Check that it was recorded: the notetaker was in the call, or the Chrome extension, desktop app or mobile app was recording. Notes appear once the recording has been processed. If a meeting is still missing, email support@acta.ai with its date and time.
Can I fix something the notes got wrong?
Yes. Each topic and key takeaway on the Overview can be edited or deleted from its row.
Who can see my meeting notes?
Your meetings are yours. Other people see the notes only when you share them.
