What people do today

🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. Develop a dedicated Bluetooth compatibility patch specifically for high-frequency EMDR audio streaming.
  2. Create a user-facing bug reporting dashboard within the app to track and prioritize playback feature fixes.
  3. Implement a 'shuffle-all' mode that explicitly bypasses device-level audio routing restrictions.
