I don’t get it. Why is it treated so skeptically when a person wants to record video without monitoring the output live? I would like to press “record” on my phone while I’m driving and continue to use my phone while it continues to record video. Is that such an edge case?? It seems like bad design to me, not only making assumptions that people should want to record video while monitoring it constantly but enforcing it so that when I switch activities, for example, while recording a video the recording stops. I didn’t tell it to stop. Why did it stop? Why should it stop? Who determined that the default human expectation should be that when you stop looking at a video recording in progress it ceases to be?

A Theory About Google Play Music on Android
I think I’ve determined that the Google Play Music app on Android has no background services. Maybe that’s why it is so jittery and prone to error; There is no overseer handling things.
What do YOU think?!
I would like to see a more responsive, intuitive, thoughtful engine behind my music player.

No more recording phone calls as of Android 9: Pie. Why (not)???

It seems really silly to me that there’s not an easy way that’s officially supported to record phone calls on smartphones. Privacy concerns amount to paranoia in this case. There is much practical value in recording phone calls.
