Quick answer
Yes—for recording and storage.
Plaud NotePin S supports offline recording and can store recordings locally with 64GB local storage, so you can keep capturing audio without an internet connection (e.g., while traveling).
What requires internet
An internet connection is typically required for syncing recordings to the app/cloud and for AI processing (e.g., transcription, summaries, mind maps, and other generated outputs).
Recommended offline workflow
- Record offline as needed—audio will be saved to local storage.
- When you're back online, open the app to sync and generate any AI outputs.
