Voice of Nigeria (VON)
Native Kotlin Android app for Nigeria’s national broadcaster: feature work, stability, and playback in challenging network conditions.
Key Achievements & Responsibilities
- •Contributed across MVVM screens, networking (Retrofit), persistence (Room), media (ExoPlayer), and background work (WorkManager).
- •Partnered on driving down crash reports by roughly 30% through defensive handling, lifecycle fixes, and clearer errors for playback and networking.
- •Implemented offline playback so users in low-connectivity regions could still consume content reliably.
