The app works great overall. However, it has some relatively small issues which tend to be very annoying. When listening to a voice note while my ear is on the phone, the screen goes to black immediately as expected. However, it goes back to be active after a bit even when still listening to the note. This causes the audio to stop and the UI to be reactive to the touch of my ear. I've experienced this issue for a while now. Looks like the screen gets back to active after 30 seconds.
