1) Which Android version are you using? 2) Latest version is 4.15 or 4.16 Preview? 3) Test with new version 4.17.

@AndraxDev

1. Android 14
2. Tested on 4.16
3. Crash still happens on 4.17

I have completely reset the app and ensured that all necessary permissions are given.

As soon as I select OpenAI Whisper for STT and then press the microphone button, the crash happens (reproducible on app version 4.17 on Android 14 at 20240819)

App has been crashed and needs to be restarted.

Can you please provide the following info:

• Device model (maybe custom ROM put additional limitations) (Tested on: Xiaomi Poco X3, Xiaomi Poco X6, Samsung Galaxy S23, Samsung Galaxy S24, Google Pixel 5/6/7/8 (It's all real devices, no emulators), Android versions 9-14 (Pure Android, heavy modified ROMs)
• App settings (AI model, individual chat settings, UI settings (sometimes errors are going from here))

[AndraxDev]

Additionally tested on: New chat, existing chat, normal button usage, spamming record button.

Note: Since app's code is obfuscated I can only see approximate error reason (but not exact line numbers) so I require some additional information.
