Queue: Kotlin Android live transcription (Kotlin) #77
Description
Integration: Kotlin Android
Why this is valuable
Android has 3B+ active devices and Kotlin is the primary language. React Native and Flutter examples exist, but native Android developers need a Kotlin-first example using Jetpack Compose. Native audio capture performs better and is required for many production apps.
Suggested approach
Build a Kotlin Android app with Jetpack Compose that captures microphone audio using Android's AudioRecord API, streams it via WebSocket to Deepgram for real-time transcription, and displays live results in the UI. Include proper permission handling and background audio support.
