Chapters, the mini-player and links to a moment

When a recording has timestamped sections, they appear as chips under the player. Select one to jump the audio to that point; the transcript follows along. The chip for the part that’s playing is highlighted. A recording with fewer than two chapters doesn’t show the chips, since one chapter is just the whole recording.

On a phone, once you scroll down to read the transcript and the main player moves out of sight, a slim bar appears above the bottom tabs. It has play and pause, back and forward 15 seconds, the time, and the current chapter, so you don’t have to scroll back up. It disappears whenever the full player is on screen.

Each line of the transcript has a Copy link to this moment button. The link opens the recording at that second — the same kind of link Ask Memory uses for its sources. Whoever opens it needs access to the recording.
