Overview

Flutter Sound is a Flutter package allowing you to play and record audio for :

• Android
• iOS
• Flutter Web

Maybe, one day, we will be supported by Linux, Macos, and even (why not) Windows. But this is not top of our priorities.

Flutter Sound provides both a high level API and widgets for:

• play audio
• record audio

Flutter Sound can be used to play a beep from an asset all the way up to implementing a complete media player.

This project is one of the two forks of the famous LGPL Flutter Sound Project 8.3. (The other being the MPL Flutter Sound Project 8.4.

This fork is published under the GNU Public License GPL3.0.

If your App will be covered by the GPL License, you probably want to consider using the MPL Tau Flutter Sound Project 8.4.

Requirements

• Flutter Sound requires an iOS 10.0 SDK (or later)
• Flutter Sound requires an Android API level 21 (or later)

Help

τ is a fundamental building block needed by almost every mobile project.

I'm looking to make τ the go to project for Audio with support for each of the Flutter supported platforms and for React Native.

τ is a large and complex project which requires me to maintain multiple hardware platforms and test environments.

I greatly appreciate any contributions to the project which can be as simple as providing feedback on the API or documentation.

Thanks

Too many projects to manage. I am burning out slowly. If you could help me cheer up, buy me a cup of coffee will make my life really happy and get much energy out of it. As a side effect, we will know that Flutter Sound is important for you, that you appreciate our job and that you can show it with a little money.

You can also click on the "Thumb up" button of the top of the pub.dev page. This is free and this will reassure me that I do not spend most of my life for nobody.
