Feature description

The app should not show recording in-progress or at least indicate the same in the UI.

Why do you want this feature?

Users could unknowingly delete the recording in progress.

Additional information

This sort of conflicts with #74 because we can't hide files without really hiding them. I see two ways:

  • Append pending- to the in-progress recording filename and ignore files starting with pending- when fetching recordings.
  • Create a pending folder inside user's selected recordings folder.

What about .part extension like some browsers do while downloading a file? This would hide the file from other media-related apps as well.

That's a very good idea. .part is probably what we'll do.

Samsung browser uses ".pending-" prefix for unfinished downloads.
