Device is an Android Go so that feature is not available

Unfortunately, Android Go disables the "Display over other apps" feature, so the screen annotation cannot be supported on such devices.

I understand, but why does screen recording not work without it? Other apps allow me to.

Bnyro commented 3 months ago

Did you disable the screen annotation tool in the settings?

JonnyTech commented 3 months ago

I simply installed the app and tapped the screen record button, no changes to any settings.

The screen recording annotation is disabled by default. Enabling it makes no difference.

But after I enable it and then disable it, then the screen recording works correctly.

Therefore there is a logic bug in the application first run. Thank you for your support.
