®Phase 0 · recording test

Can a web page keep
recording while you
take photos?

This decides whether the field app can be a web page or has to be a proper installed app. Nothing leaves your phone — no upload, no account, no storage.

Please run it for at least two minutes, and lock your screen partway through. A short run without a screen lock cannot answer the question — the first round of testing was 50 seconds and told us nothing about the case that matters.

What to do

  1. Start recording and talk continuously — describe the room, keep going.
  2. Take three photos with the green button. Keep talking.
  3. Take one with the grey button — that opens your phone's real camera app.
  4. Lock your screen for twenty seconds — press the side button, wait, unlock, come back. This is the step that decides it. Keep talking throughout.
  5. Come back and stop.

The two numbers are the whole test. If they match, a web page can do this and the field app can be a website. If the audio is much shorter, it cannot, and we build a proper app.
