## Ask about a note

Open a note and choose **Ask About This Note**. You can also **Ask About Selected Text**, ask about a PDF page, or **Ask Across Multiple Materials** you choose.

RooQi sends only what the request needs — your question, the selected text or region and the conversation context. It never sends your whole library automatically. When the AI looks something up on the web, it sends a generated search query, not your note.

## Minutes from a recording

After a recording is saved and transcribed, choose **Generate Minutes…**. You can also turn on **Generate Minutes When Finished** before recording.

- Minutes are checked against source references in the transcript.
- Generating again creates a **separate new version**; previous minutes are kept.
- Ask follow-up questions with **Ask more about this recording…**.

## Subscription devices

One subscription authorises up to **6 RooQi installations** on iPhone, iPad or Mac. Slots count installations, not hardware: reinstalling can use a new slot. Release the slot on a device you no longer use from **Subscription Devices**. Releasing does not delete notes or cancel your subscription.

## If AI is unavailable after subscribing

Tap **Reload plans and status** (Mac: **Check Again**) on the subscription page, confirm the network is available and that this device is authorised in Subscription Devices. Still stuck? Email hello@rooqi.ai.
