When i use web sync over my mac through usb c, I’m finding 2 short recordings that are on the Pocket that always try to transfer over. These recordings always error out and i can’t remove them. Any advice here? In the image, out of 3, 1 is today’s recording and then the 2 short ones that are always found. Thanks

hey @nyhunter77 thanks for pointing this out best way would be to delete them using the app for now using the Look Up Device Files Option
