A one-time-purchase recorder that keeps long-form field audio complete, visible, portable, and recoverable.

Medium opportunity (73%)
Journalists, researchers, inspectors, and other field professionals rely on phones to capture interviews, meetings, observations, and evidence that cannot be recreated. Existing recorders frequently stop silently, lose recordings during updates or device changes, hide files in app-private storage, or require manual exports and proprietary cloud accounts. These failures break the workflow between recording, file management, backup, editing, and delivery.
Build an Android recorder designed around file ownership and capture reliability rather than transcription or cloud lock-in. It writes recoverable recording segments directly to a user-selected folder, continuously verifies that audio is being captured, displays prominent failure warnings, and supports automatic copying to removable storage, a computer, or the buyer's chosen cloud folder. Standard filenames, timestamps, selectable formats, checksums, and a migration utility make recordings usable by editing, evidence-management, and archival workflows.
Recent Android storage restrictions and device-specific ecosystems increasingly place recordings in inaccessible app-private folders. The signals span several recorder brands and multiple years, showing that portability, recovery, and dependable long-form capture are broader needs rather than one product's isolated defect.

how do you open settings?? starting the app does nothing because it decided I'm recording video. pressing the defined stop action does not change that. you overprotect,making the app unusable.
App somehow broke. Can't record any audio at all. The recording line moves, but there'll be no waveform and the recording is silent
