DTEN Action Card is a slim recorder that captures your meetings and calls — at the table, on the phone or in the hallway — and turns them into the things you promised to do. This article walks you through first-time setup.

What you need

• Your DTEN Action Card
• A smartphone with the DTEN app installed
• A DTEN account (you can create one in the app)
• Any USB-C cable

Step 1: Charge the card

Connect the card to a USB-C cable — the same one you already carry for your phone. A full charge gives up to 12 hours of continuous recording and up to 90 days on standby. Charge it fully before your first meeting.

Step 2: Install the DTEN app and sign in

1. Download the DTEN app from your phone’s app store.
2. Open the app and sign in with your DTEN account, or create a new one.
3. Allow notifications when asked. The app uses them to remind you before meetings and to show the recording timer.

Step 3: Pair the card

1. In the DTEN app, tap Add device.
2. Hold the card next to your phone and press its button once.
3. Follow the prompts on screen. When pairing is finished, the card appears under My devices.

Step 4: Snap it on

The card has a built-in magnet and is MagSafe-compatible. Snap it onto the back of your phone (or a MagSafe case) and it stays put. For an in-person meeting you can also simply put it on the table.

Good to know

• The card is sealed to IP67, so rain, spills and dust are fine.
• There is only one button. See Recording a meeting or a phone call for how it works.

Next steps

1. Set up Voice ID so the card can tell your promises from everyone else’s.
2. Record your first meeting.
