How to Access Audio Files from WebShuttle Dictate

Normally, audio files recorded using WebShuttle Dictate are sent directly to the WebShuttle server over Wi-Fi or mobile data. However, in cases where there's a connectivity issue—such as poor Wi-Fi or no cellular signal—you can retrieve the audio files manually by connecting your device to a computer.
