This is an update version of 1.1.1 that contains the proper version code and version string. I apologize for not taking care of this sooner.

Please do not use the previous v1.1.1 tag. While it will still remain for historical reasons, you should use v1.1.1-fixed instead.

This release adds support for dark mode in the current UI. This contribution was provided courtesy of @RealPacket.

After months of work, Sound Recorder Plus 1.1.0 has finally been released! This release has a few goodies with it, so I hope it's a welcomed improvement over the original!

IMPORTANT: Please Read This Section!

• This is the last stable release for Android Nougat and Oreo. If your device is still on these versions, please consider upgrading if you can. A special 2.0 alpha release is planned that will support Android Nougat and Oreo, but the stability of the release is not guaranteed.

• Storage permissions are now required on Android Nougat, Oreo, and Pie only. If you are on Android 10 or above, no new permissions are required. This is because the recording directory was changed again.

• Since the recordings directory changed, SR+ will automatically migrate any recordings in the old directory to the new one. No intervention is required.

Changelog

New

• Added monochrome icon

Changes

• Changed the recordings directory again to external storage Music directory (Android < 11) or the external storage Recordings directory (Android 11+)
• Recordings are now persistent after app uninstall or storage deletion.
• Update dependencies and AGP to their latest versions.
• Rewrite all non-UI code in Kotlin.
• Reduced app size by a few megabytes.
• Reduced build time by a few seconds.
• Replaced "High Quality" preference with new bitrate and sample rate preferences.

Removals

• Removed text above the record button

As always, please report any bugs. If there are any 1.1.x releases, or even another 1.x release, they will support Android Nougat and Oreo.

Sound Recorder Plus 1.0.0 has officially been released! Here's what's changed compared to the original version:

• Android 7.0 or above is now required
• Added support for permissions
• Changed saved recordings directory
• Enable high-quality recording by default
• Drop WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission
• Use AndroidX support library
• Add new adaptive app icon
• Fix many deprecation warnings

This version requires Android 7.0 or above, like the previous beta.

Another version of Sound Recorder Plus has been released! This time it's a release candidate, which indicates that this version is up for getting published to F-Droid! Some changes might occur between the final release and this version, but if everything goes well, then this version will be re-tagged as 1.0.0.

All known bugs are now fixed, and the app should be on par with the original in terms of functionality. However, this version is still a pre-release for a couple of reasons: the attached APK is a debug APK, so you might need to uninstall this version before installing the final F-Droid version, and the app version and version code read "1.0.0" and 100, respectively, despite the possibility of last minute changes happening. Put it short, while it might seem like the app is good enough for a stable release, this version is still for early adopters as anything can change at any time. The package name may also change at any time in order to comply with F-Droid's package naming policy, so be aware of the implications that come with that.

• Fix build with modern Android Studio
• Fix older app warning with newer Android versions
• Bump minimum SDK to 24, target SDK to 34
• Add permission handling
• Change recordings save directory to external app storage
• Drop WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission
• Replace old Android support library with AndroidX
• Add adaptive app icon

Note: This is a preview version of Sound Recorder Plus and contains known bugs. Additionally, some parts of the app might not have been updated yet. These issues will be addressed in the final stable version.
