Is it possible to use on older android phones? #183

I know you can modify apk packages and change minimum android version in manifest. Would that work?

I have a few old phones that could use your app. I really dont see why this app should only run on recent android versions. Google changes the OS too frequently making it a bit of a monopoly as to what user gets what and when.

Thank you!

Seems not to be possible as stated in #101 :

Because RootlessJDSP needs direct access to audio data, it also needs to record internal audio output. However, that Android feature was only universally available as a public developer API since Android 10, so I cannot support Android 9 and lower.
