  Audio, Plugin, plugin

Flutter Sound

This plugin provides simple recorder and player functionalities for both Android and iOS platforms.

Demo

Features

  • Play and Record sounds or music with various codecs. (See the supported codecs here)
  • Play local or remote files specified by their URL.
  • The App playback can be controled from the device lock screen or from an Apple watch
  • Handle playback stream from native (To sync exact time with bridging). [Not sure to understand what it means!]

Flutter Sound branches

We actually maintain two branches for Flutter Sound :

  • The V4 branch (the version ^4.0.0)
  • The master branch (actually the version ^5.0.0)

We do not expect that everybody will switch today from 4.x.x to 5.x.x.

V4 is our stable branch, and will be maintained as long as everybody will not have switch to V5 : in other words V4 is our LTS version (Long Term Support).
