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 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Ok, thanks anyways for making open source stuff !

[–] ByteMe@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

I love open source!

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 4 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] BakedCatboy@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

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 4 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] BakedCatboy@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

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 4 weeks ago

I've restricted the API to 34+ anyway.

Just installed, and it's not compatible with my samsung s22+ on android 16 😞

[–] ByteMe@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

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

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