Creating Audio Recorder in Android

Post Views: 5,222

Hello Friends, Today I am going to share audio recording code in android. This code will work on latest version of android (Marshmallow) also. In this code we are going to use MediaRecorder class to record audio and MediaPlayer class to play recorded audio.
