1A VoxPop

It's OK, but the app could use some work. Playback is done at phone-levels in the earpiece, but it doesn't shut off the screen with the proximity sensor, so you can accidentally delete your recording while listening to it. I'd also like the opportunity to pause and resume recording, or to begin recording over a certain section, so I don't have to re-record my whole piece if I flub someone's name or something. Otherwise it's reasonably well designed and straight forward. The only non-intuitive thing about it is the record button is behind the question being asked, which makes it look like a background, not a clickable button. It would be nice if we could attach a text comment with our recording, so we could cite reports referenced in our recordings, to make sure hosts and guests have a chance to familiarize themselves with the background of our comments before going on-air, but this is a really minor thing for me.

Makes it so easy to hear and be heard. Not only do I get a preview of the topics but I have the chance to compose a thoughtful contribution. I feel heard and seen. Thank you 1A!

You still mention Joshua Johnson in the introductory text when you open the app for the first time. While I'd love him back, I know that's not happening!
