This was SO helpful in the beginning. Now I can only record 5 seconds. I am not sure what happened to limit the recordings, but I would love for it to go back to allowing longer.

This is the most helpful tool I have used to add audio! It has some glitches, but gets the job done!

I used the audio recording and it works like a charm! I love that it saves to one's own Google Drive instead of on other servers!
