can coders code any custom function they like?

683 views

For all the different coders, programmers etc out there. Let’s say you have a computer or phone and you want to make some custom functions. For example, for devices which don’t have something like Samsung’s Sound Assistant and you wanted to play an app through a separate speaker than the rest of the apps, can you program a function like this? A use for this may be to play music through a speaker but have all other app audio play through the device speaker as to not disrupt the music.

From a purely computational standpoint, the only real limitation a programmer would have would be the amount of memory available to them.

In terms of something like what you describe where the program is communicating with other systems, it depends on how those systems allow the program to interact with them. In this case, if the underlying OS doesn’t offer a way for an app to request that a specific app re-route its audio to a different output device there isn’t much that the app developer could do. On the other hand, a programmer working on the OS would likely be capable of implementing such a thing, but in general they would still be similarly limited by the ways in which they can interact with the underlying hardware.
