Save audio to ipod(music) library?

Hey everyone,
Im working on a music app right now, what im wondering is if it is possible to record audio, then save the file to the ipod library?

Ex. of how i would like it to work:
User presses record and makes their recording
Then the user presses a save button which would save what they recorded to the phone
The user is then able to find said recording in their music library.

Any idea if this is possible? I know i can record/create an audio file, but as for the rest well… im hoping you all can shed some light on this.
Thanks in advance [import]uid: 46742 topic_id: 12579 reply_id: 312579[/import]

At this time the Corona API can not support this. I’m pretty sure that you could do something else. If you have a server, you could have the document uploaded to the server, then it could download the document off the website. Then the user would have to manually add it to their iTunes library.

Sorry :frowning:

Thanks for the fast response! Also funny youd be the one to reply.
Just to be perfectly clear, the thing im not able to do is save recordings to the ipod library. I am still able just to simply save a recording to the device right? Or is it neither?
Thanks again. [import]uid: 46742 topic_id: 12579 reply_id: 46000[/import]

I have an Android phone. So basically when I go to the internet, I can download an MP3 from the internet, then I click on it, and it is manually saved into my Music folder on my SD Card. The Corona SDK does not support saving MP3 files or other files like to an iTunes library. I was saying there is only one way to get around this, have the user go to the website and download the MP3 off it directly. The only thing Corona allows you to save to the device is .txt files (to be read by JSON). I would check the sample apps, I think there is an audio recorder or something in their. But to my knowledge, there is no saving directly to the device. Good luck :slight_smile:
