Please update this app. It needs mp3 functionality at the very least. Thank you.

Being a professional sound tech, I searched for a long time for no-frills professional recording app. Hindenburg does the job. A no-nonsense interface fills the screen the moment the app opens up. Setting levels is a snap and the volume level indicators make it obvious immediately whether you’re recording in mono or stereo. Sharing files is also just what you’d expect from a well-designed app. Hindenburg has just what I need - and even more importantly - I don’t have to wade through a bunch of cartoon-like garbage to make a recording. One MAJOR omission, though (which is forcing me to use another app) is its lack of ability to recognize and use a Bluetooth mic. If you fix this one fault, I’ll come back home to Hindenburg… thx

It’s everything you would want except a lot of audio is required to be mp3. I’m surprised that it’s not available. Other than that it’s great.
