Enhanced session detection
Disclaimer: Enhanced session detection is experimental and available only for Android 10 and up.
If you choose to activate enhanced session detection, Wavelet will actively listen for music sessions instead of relying on being notified when a session starts. The DUMP permission is required to allow Wavelet to filter the required information from the device system services needed to attach and release audio effects to audio sessions. The advantage of enhanced session detection is that there is no need to depend on other applications opening and closing their audio sessions properly, which means it should work properly with every media session.
Instructions to activate enhanced session detection:
- Activate developer options and enable USB debugging on your device as instructed on https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/dev-options
- On Xiaomi devices, it is mandatory to enable USB debugging (Security Settings)
- On Realme and OPPO devices, it is mandatory to disable permission monitoring under settings - security center
