Affected app version

1.7.1

Affected Android/Custom ROM version

Android 16

Affected device model

Pixel 6, 7a and 7

How did you install the app?

F-Droid / IzzyOnDroid

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Optional: Set the app's locale to English (US) or French (FR), it doesn't make a difference
  2. Go to the player's list of existing recordings
  3. Longpress one of the recordings to select it
  4. Tap the Rename button in the toolbar
  5. Try to append " entrevue avec le gros Tony"

Expected behavior

I should be able to type lowercase words unimpeded.

Actual behavior

On every new word, the keyboard constantly tries to enforce capitalization on the first letter. Essentially, it insists on trying to type it like this:

Entrevue Avec Le Gros Tony

This is extremely annoying and time-consuming, Anglo-centric (the majority of languages don't set uppercase first letters on every word) and is not even correct (because English typography requires certain words to not be capitalized, too).

No other app does that on my phone, including the previous sound recorder app I was using.

Please don't enforce capitalization by default in the file renaming field, if I want to type capital letter I will use the Shift key myself.
