Hi all, posted this earlier and trying to ask a different way… is it possible to show an animation or video while audio is recording or playing? Think “Siri” on the iPhone.

There isn’t an easy way to do this because we can’t really customize the action sequence that happens when a user taps “Play” on the video/audio components. 😕 You could explore customizing the action that takes users to the detail screen possibly!
