Yeah; my point is that it could be as useful as a button board, but for most people it’ll be no different than something that detects ANY audio from a pet and plays a a random sound from a collection. And once the novelty wears off, they’ll ignore it the same way they were already ignoring their pet.
But for those few people that would already invest the time and effort in a button board, this could be useful as a mobile equivalent.
