Select storage path #31

Closed fbnrst closed 7 years ago

fbnrst commented 8 years ago

What keeps me from using this app is that it safes recordings to the internal memory of my Motorola Moto E. The reason seems to be that Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() points to the internal memory instead of the SD card for the Moto E. My internal memory is too small to store all my recordings.

It seems to me that the only general solution to my problem to make the storate path selectable by the user. Is it planned to implement this?

It also seems to be similar to the way the ownCloud Android app handles the storage of files (see https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/10). There they state the beta version of ownCloud now offers an option to select the storage path. Maybe one could learn from there.

I'm willing to help on this, but I'm not much of an Android developer, unfortunately.

I changed my phone and do not need this anymore. In the spirit of keeping the app simple, I think this feature is not essential, so I close this one.
