My Concerns of Using Hable One with Android

Some of the Hable One commands simply do not work on my Samsung Z Flip 3.

Folks on the web have said it does work, and it doesn’t work on their Android devices, so I think it is one of those Android things where openness leads to issues.

I would suggest folks try the Hable One on your own Android device before purchase.

However, works fine on my iPhone, and you’ll find a demo of it on my podcast feed.

Overall we decided great device. However, just because it’s “accessible” doesn’t mean you don’t have to learn how to use the device to get the most out of it.

Check out the excellent tutorial done by Jonathan Mosen on they Living Blindfully podcast for the Zoom H1 Essential Recorder.
