I just launched my first app. It's a simple app that pops up a toast notification when hdr content is being played, kinda like TVs do

Any chance of a Linux version?

Sorry, no, this is an app made for Android, it won't work anywhere else

[-] warmaster@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Ok, thanks anyways for making open source stuff !

Just installed, and it's not compatible with my samsung s22+ on android 16 ๐Ÿ˜ž

[-] ByteMe@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yes, sorry, it's an Android limitation, only for s24 and later :((

Hmm unfortunately it doesn't work on my pixel 5 which is running android 16 and should be api level 36

[-] ByteMe@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yes, it's not an API issue, check my disclaimer in readme

[-] BakedCatboy@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Ah, maybe it could detect the api level, and show a generic error message if your api level meets the requirements but it still didn't work.

[-] ByteMe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Didn't you see an "unsupported device" message?

[-] BakedCatboy@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah but the learn more link points to the getHdrSdrRatio documentation which says available in api level 34. Maybe that can only show if you're using <34

[-] ByteMe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I've restricted the API to 34+ anyway.

I despise HDR content. Scrolling shorts at night only to get my retinas burned out
