How Shizuku is used

Can keep its background keep-alive service running by starting it with the `am start-foreground-service` shell command through Shizuku.

This is an AI-assisted analysis of Shizuku-related usages in the app's public source code. It is best effort, so it may not catch every single usage.

How this app uses Shizuku

Shizuku is used only to keep the app's background keep-alive service running so floating and background voice features stay available.

  • Restart keep-alive service: after boot, on a periodic job, or from settings, the app relaunches its foreground keep-alive service with the am start-foreground-service shell command through Shizuku, which succeeds where a normal background start would be blocked.

Android APIs or commands used

  • am start-foreground-service
  • sh -c

Notable details

If Shizuku is not granted or available, the app falls back to a normal foreground service start without privileged execution.

New Features

  • AI Auto Prompt Selection: Before polishing, automatically pick the best Prompt preset for the transcript. Presets can include a Skill description; you can choose a separate classifier model and preview with history. High-quality transcripts can skip polishing
  • Keep Screen On While Recording: Keeps the screen on during keyboard or floating-ball recording so it will not sleep mid-session; also available as a keyboard extension toggle
  • DashScope Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash: DashScope adds the Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash non-streaming model
  • StepAudio Models: StepAudio adds stepaudio-3-asr-max and custom recognition models
  • [Pro] Separate Assistant and Hotword Models: AI assistant and hotword-correction analysis can each use their own model instead of the default polish model

Improvements

  • Online Non-Streaming Chunking: Online file recognition now chunks on silence for faster first results on long recordings; failed segments are retried automatically
  • Full-Screen Prompt Editor: Polish prompts can be edited full screen
  • AI Extra Parameters: Temperature and other advanced parameters move into a dedicated sheet
  • [Pro] Input Field Context: When enabled, automatic prompt selection also uses text around the cursor

Bug Fixes

  • Fold and Rotation: Fix floating ball and floating keyboard position and usable area after rotation or folding
  • Recording Source: Cache the validated capture source to reduce recording failures or repeated source probing on some devices
  • Backup Import: More compatible recognition-history backup import when newer enum fields are missing
