An electronic device includes one or more sensors having at least an audio sensor and one or more processors. The one or more sensors detect multiple persons within an environment about the electronic device and identify at least one person as an authorized user of the electronic device. The audio sensor receives audio input from the environment, and the one or more processors filter the audio input into authorized user generated audio input and other audio input, record audio signals representing the authorized user generated audio input, and preclude the recording of other audio signals representing to the other audio input.
