It should work alongside numbered recordings - however I just realised that the first recording always ends up being log0 - after that i think you're fine: https://github.com/espruino/BangleApps/blob/master/apps/recorder/widget.js#L266-L269

edit: I just added 0.27 to the dev app loader that should have that fixed

I do have one still on the watch that IDE doesn't manage to download

Can you just download it with the app loader? https://banglejs.com/apps/?q=recorder That should be better

Thanks a lot!
- Indeed, download with app loader worked immediately (wasn't aware of that option, always used IDE so far)
- Also 0.27 works as intended. Possible reason why it didn't before: number was at 5 and I manually increased it to 6 before start recording (see next point). So it used that. Looks like you set the date filename with the new button after you detect a conflict?
- Could this conflict menu made optional somehow? I personally never have used the Overwrite/Append/No, so its always "new". Besides the extra tap I always am a bit afraid to accidentally overwrite/append given the small buttons. So I typically manually increased the number before start (some more taps). With the date format I was hoping to get rid of that fear and taps - just start recorder with one tap.
- If this is only me interested in or difficult: don't mind. I plan start/stop recorder from within a watch face/own app anyway and saw I can force new in the api, so should be fine
```
WIDGETS["recorder"].setRecording(true, {force:"new"/"append"/"overwrite")
```
  Pretty happy to get dates instead of numbers here.

I can think of two solutions, the simplest being to introduce a new setting for this. The other one being to have the selection be made by doing single/multiple HW button presses.
