• 📊 Charts & Stats: Analyze how much AI nonsense you had to listen to.

For Developers

• First

  • Download assets using ./scripts/setup_assets.sh or equivalent ways of running the bash script.
  • To update keywords, edit the main .txt files in assets/ then run ./scripts/setup_assets.sh

• Current Behavior

  • On start, app launches in ASR mode and will listen for keywords and show a persistent/sticky notification indicating so.
  • Main page shows daily stats only.
  • persistent/sticky notification has buttons for control including start, stop, resume and exit.
  • When app is removed from recent apps stack "swiped up", the whole app shut and no more recording is happening.
  • App doesn't start on device start up, but if open, will survive app update/reinstalls.

• DONE

  • Logic for audio processing using record
  • KeywordSpotting (KWS) using sherpa onnx, OnlineRecognizer (ASR) option using sherpa onnx
  • Simple UI
  • Runs in the background (as long as app is open in the background)
  • Detects keywords in this keywords.txt file of both models
  • Spotted "texts" are published as the TrackedText in the form {String text, List keywords, DateTime timestamp} and saved in the Hive database
  • In the case of KWS, keywords of TrackedText is a list with single element, the same as, text
  • Home page keeps track of counts of keyword daily
  • Apps runs in the background
  • Included Stats Page
  • Included Settings Page (Choose ASR vs KWS, display options, clear database, etc.)

• TODO

  • Polish UI/UX
  • See TODOs in files
  • Cannot run in linux because of record and PCM format, see pubspec.yaml; maybe consider encoding
  • Think about trimming database box sizes after certain limit to prevent infinite growth (Do we rly need really old data?)
  • Padding values, spacing in charts, etc are hardcoded numbers, shouldn't be like that
