Long-Form Audio Recording with Auto-Save

Provide a reliable long-form audio recorder that saves raw audio files, supports auto-save, and removes strict duration/file-size limits.

## Summary
Glide previously supported direct audio recording and file saving, but this has been replaced with a Record-and-Transcribe flow that is only stable for short clips. Longer sessions (≈15+ minutes) frequently fail, time out, or are lost entirely if the user navigates away. Modern operational apps depend on voice input, and without a dependable long-form recorder, many business workflows cannot be delivered.
## Current Problem
- Long recordings regularly fail or time out using the current “Record & Transcribe” flow.
- Users lose the entire recording if they navigate away or if the app stops unexpectedly.
- Transcription is forced into the workflow even when the goal is simply to capture the raw audio.
- Session length and file-size limits restrict common business use cases (e.g., 30–60 min conversations).
- Builders must resort to external APIs/services (AWS, Make, etc.) to replicate something Glide used to support natively.
## Examples/Scenarios
- **Staff development & quarterly reviews:** managers record long discussions with direct reports.
- **On-site inspections:** field workers dictate findings hands-free during long walkthroughs.
- **Customer support logs:** service teams record issue descriptions, customer feedback, and troubleshooting steps.
In all cases, losing a multi-minute or multi-hour recording is unacceptable.
## Why This Matters
A reliable long-form recorder is essential for voice-driven workflows — a rapidly growing input method for internal tools. Without it:
- Core business processes cannot be built reliably in Glide.
- The risk of losing entire recordings erodes user trust.
- Builders are forced into external workarounds that increase cost and complexity.
Restoring dependable recording unlocks a wide range of operational apps that rely on voice capture.
## Suggested UX
1. **“Record Audio” Component (Raw File Capture)**
- Record long sessions (30+ minutes).
- Save raw audio directly into a File column without mandatory transcription.
- Handle large file sizes gracefully.
2. **Auto-Save While Recording**
- Continuously save audio in increments so no progress is lost if the tab closes, the device sleeps, or the user navigates away.
- Resume recording if possible.
3. **Higher Duration & File Size Limits**
- Support extended recording sessions standard in business workflows.
- Expose limits clearly to builders.
A stable, long-form audio recording feature would dramatically improve Glide’s ability to support real-world operational apps and eliminate dependence on external automation services.
