  • Added Android real-time transcription support (Android 13 / API 33). Realtime transcription now works on iOS and Android; Android only supports real-time (not file-based) transcription.
  • Updated docs:
    • README now documents Android support, platform-specific permission guidance, and updated requirements.
    • requestPermissions() noted as iOS-only; microphone permission used on Android.
    • File-based transcription APIs (transcribeAudioWithSFRecognizer, transcribeAudioWithAnalyzer) and isAnalyzerAvailable() are iOS-only.
  • Example/UI:
    • Redesigned example/RecordRealTimeAndTranscribe.tsx UI to match App.tsx styling while keeping original functionality (permissions, start/stop, live transcription).
  • Limitations/reminders:
    • File-based transcription remains iOS-only.
    • Android requires API level 33+ (Android 13).
    • Locale is still hardcoded to en_US.
