yeah I could use Projects but eh

Work out the packet format

Receive Battery Information
Set/Receive ANC Modes
Set Adaptive Audio Noise settings
Receive In-Ear detection Status
Personalized Volume (use at your own risk - might randomly boost volume to some high level)
Conversational Awareness
Ear Detection
Siri (Voice assistant on long stem press)
Hold and Press configuration
Head Tracking (for Spatial Audio and Head Gestures)
Rename AirPods
Mute Unmute Calls with stem press (No idea why this doesn't already work)
Get firmware info
Configuring accessibilty settings
- Press Speed
- Press and hold duration
- Noise Cancellation with one AirPod
- Tone Volume
- Toggle Volume Control on Swipe
- Volume Swipe (Normal/Longer/Longest)
- Headphone accomodation
- Audio Tuning (idk if this is also smth that mac does)~
- Customize Transparency Mode - includes tone, conversation boost, balance.
- Hearing Aid

Communicate with the case over their Find My protocol (a GATT server)

Authenticate with the case
Toggle case charging sounds
Toggle optimized charging
Fetch battery information even when not connected
Play sound through case

Android app specific stuff

[ x] Remove hardcoded strings and use Crowdin
Support for different AirPods models (Visual changes - only showing features based on the model etc., features should already work)
Remove the need for manually patching and overlayng the library by either making a module that patches or giving the app root access.
Customize settings for various features - like what to do when conversational awareness is triggered (pause music, or lower volume to a customizable level)
Design the widget
Polish the QuickSetting tile
Play sound through individual AirPods (the buds, not the case) to find them.
Redesign the debug screen
Improve renaming
- Possibly use hiddenapibypass to directly rename the BluetoothDevice of Android, and hence not requiring a re-pair.

Feature requests for Linux:

Show system notification with batteries status when case is open.

In the current version to check batteries I need open app. So system notification with simple text which are triggered when I open the case looks much useful.

Thanks.
