@franciscoandroid.bsky.social and I are wrapping up our talk at #dcbln25 about our adventure of ditching MediaProjection and building our custom in-app session recorder at Circuit.
Check out the slides and later the recording here:

When MediaProjection Isn't Enough - Building a Custom In-App Session Recorder
Debugging user issues gets so much easier when you can see exactly what they experienced. While off-the-shelf solutions exist to integrate screen recording into our apps, they didn’t give us the quality, flexibility, or control we needed. So, our team built our own native, in-app session recording tool for Android.
In this talk, we’ll share why we decided to go in-house, how we tackled the technical and UX hurdles along the way, and what we learned about recording high-quality video and audio data.
