Would this be enough: https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Voice-Recorder/issues/20? If not, how it should work, how it should be triggered?

Would this be enough: #20? If not, how it should work, how it should be triggered?

No #20 that's aquick tile, we can implement shortcuts like shaking phone and start recording and add option to enable/disable

maybe not shaking that is too obvious, but what if it was some action with buttons?

What about an app launcher shortcut?

Starting recording using some gesture (like shaking) while the app is in the background is likely going to consume a lot of power as we'll need a background service listening for the gesture. Alternatively, we can run some gesture detection while the app is in the foreground.
