permissions

miniti asks for the minimum permissions it needs to record and transcribe meetings. nothing more.

​

macos

you can manage both later in system settings → privacy & security. smart meetings can recognize supported call applications through public macos audio-process information. this reuses the permissions above and does not add a camera prompt, accessibility prompt, system extension, administrator helper, or higher macos requirement.

​

system audio, explained

system audio capture lets miniti transcribe what the other side of a call is saying - zoom, google meet, teams, and other video callers. without it, miniti only hears you. to enable system audio capture:

1. open miniti
2. on the home screen, toggle system audio on
3. the first time you start a recording, grant system audio recording permission when prompted

​

optional: google calendar

if you connect google calendar (settings → calendar & meetings), miniti reads your events (read-only) so it can show upcoming meetings and auto-start/stop recording. it never writes to your calendar.

​

ios

background recording is enabled at the app level. as long as the app is running (foreground or background), recording continues when you switch apps or lock your phone.

​

what miniti does not ask for

• screen recording
• camera
• accessibility
• administrator access
• contacts
• location
• files outside the folders you pick yourself (markdown export)
