Well I have been developing native apps for both for over a decade, and I don't think either is particularly more difficult than the other. What it came down to is that I use an iP…

I have no issue with people decompiling my code for fun or curiosity. I often put easter eggs in my code or built files for this specific purpose. I never use obfuscation unless th…

Very strange... Best I can offer is to delete and reinstall the app to reset the microphone permissions, or if you'd like you can send me an email via my website (okat.best) and we…

Small world! Thanks for using it, I'm glad you like it

Here's the comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40502383 Essentially I don't want to have somebody swoop in, replicate the same thing, be better at marketing, and charge m…

You can try with my example video above! Listen to the first couple seconds of the song on my recording (skip to 0:08): https://twitter.com/OKatBest/status/1795453042994680148 Then…

So this is an excellent question, because no joke I have noticed the same thing testing with Spotify. Apple Music does not have that issue. Makes me wonder: do different streaming …

Unfortunately a lot of mid-range tables nowadays don't have the strobe (mine included), most likely for aesthetic reasons... Even just looking at online shopping right now I only s…

That's super odd. So it's not even rotating? There might be an issue that occurs before the analysis starts. If you don't mind, do you have any special setting on? Lockdown mode or…

Thank you so much! I spoke about why I'm not flat out saying how it works in another comment but let me answer your questions: 1) It actually might! Worth a shot I guess, but I don…

That's very good to know, I didn't even think to test it with lockdown mode! I'll see if I can add a fallback page if the content is missing. Thanks!

That's odd, could you share an example of a record you use? Are those fairly popular/common records? Also, do you see the little disk outline moving during the analysis? This would…

I'm gonna be honest, using the accelerometer will definitely be more accurate because you can take more samples over a longer period of time. That's how this project started, but I…

This is how this project started! I thought I was super smart figuring out I could do that, then I realized there are many apps that already do the same thing. Eventually I decided…

Hey that's very odd, would you mind telling me which country/region you are located in? I actually released the app yesterday but didn't post about it til today because it wasn't b…

That is fair criticism, I expected for the website itself to be polarizing. At the end of the day because this is a tiny free app I made for fun, I am willing to throw some people …

Probably a smart idea to be suspicious of new apps, though I will say I am someone who care deeply about privacy. You can take a look at my previous project Boop ( https://boop.oka…

Hey that's awesome to hear, thanks for trying it out! This is exactly what I hoped for when building this app. Making a dead simple tool for people who want their records to sound …

That's correct. The analysis takes a few seconds so even if I take more samples, it all gets averaged over time and won't be able to do instant read. If you're interested in measur…

So you have multiple speed settings (33.3RPM, 45RPM etc.), but most if not all players also have a little adjustment knob to tweak those settings more precisely. Good players will …

Hey there! I made a little app that lets you to calibrate your turntable by putting on any record and tapping a button. It's called Grooved and it uses your phone's microphone to s…
