[App][5.1+][Alpha] AnyAutoAudio - Use any audio app in Auto
- Thread starter jvvpc
- Start date
Hello there . I just installed the newest version today. And I opened the music app before I opened the android auto. But the music app is still not there. This music app does have a notification bar and the name is qq music. Can you please have a look? Thanks.
I just had to wipe my phone and either the newer versions of Android Auto (4.4.x) have changed how you enable developer mode or it has been removed because tapping the top bar in the about section doesn't do anything (for me, at least).
I uninstalled and sideloaded an apk for v 4.1.5 and was able to enable developer mode there then update AA to current version and keep the AAA integration.

Open Android Auto. Tap the three bars at the upper left (is that what they call a "hamburger menu"?), and tap on Settings. At the bottom of the settings page it lists the version - start tapping on that, and you can enable Developer Settings (that's what I just did, and it worked for me).
That makes sense since that's how you do it for android itself in the phone settings. Should make setup easier when I get a new phone in a few months
Had the same problem for awhile but no time to try to fix it until today (thought it would take much longer if even possible).
My fix:
Since this looping only happens with SoundCloud and that it started after some updates ago, I simply uninstalled the SoundCloud app from my phone and downloaded a APK from APK-mirror instead that I knew worked with AAA before.
My choice (without trying any other):
apkmirror.com/apk/soundcloud/soundcloud-soundcloud/soundcloud-soundcloud-2019-03-04-release-release/
Hope this helps, it sure did for me anyway
Running AAA 0.0.4 and AA 4.4.59
Same as many, have to run samsung music first before it pops up. If not the hamburger menu is 0.
Hope there is a fix

Does that version have the like button in it's notification? I feel like the issue may be caused from this, and maybe the app is incorrectly expecting a play/pause from the second button, but it's the next track button in this case....

I have seen you referr to GPS version before, is this some kind of app or what is it?
And what is the exact benefit of this app because currently if i play audio via any app on my phone i hear it via AA just can't control it via AA.
(My apologies if this has been answered before, did not read whole thread)

I think the only real benefit is the control button play/pause/next etc in the new aa ui..
lol yes you should read the whole thread before posting
well GPS = Google Play Services
Sent from my whyred using XDA Labs
Thanks for the developer
Kudos to the developer, its works perfectly.
Using latest android auto and 1.1 version of the app.
Only drawback is that it is not displaying on android auto when opened on mobile, but when connected to car unit it perfectly displays and performs all activities mentioned by developer.
Even Wynk music app is working.

AnyAutoAudio
So I was tired of not being able to use the audio apps I normally use in Auto and decided to try and do something about it. This app is the result :fingers-crossed:
How does it work?
By using the notification listener permission, the app is able to access the media session of any audio app that is running. This is then passed to Android Auto, which makes it possible to control as any normal Auto app. This also means that it is necessary to run the audio app(s) first before running Auto.
I have several ideas for future features, but would like some feedback first and get rid of bugs. Take it for a spin!
Howto:
- Setup AnyAutoAudio from the app
- Open and run music app(s)
- Run Android Auto from phone or dashboard

Release notes
17Progress update!
First of all, thank you all very much for the kind words and help you have given me!
I have been working on bits and pieces of the app and believe I have found the way this development shall go ahead.
There will be two apps, the normal on Google Play and a advanced on XDA Labs. As Google has a lot of restrictions, it is not possible to get the deep level access to music browsing that is wanted, so I am able to achieve this by having an "advanced" version on XDA Labs. I have already developed and tested this feature, and it works! I will need other bits finished before a release though. It will be a simple feature that opens the music app itself and upon music selection goes back to Auto. So if you use dashboard, the phone will change app and if you just use the app, it will just change. Simple and easy
The first post has already been updated with a link to XDA Labs, but here it is (I even created the image :victory:
https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/dk.jonske.AnyAutoAudio
I do know there still is bugs, and I will attend them throughout the whole process
The ideas I have for the future in general:
- Proper settings UI
- Intro screens
- Feedback option
- FAQ screen
- Analytics (minded on the dual app solution)
- Proper voice implementation
- Search in app if possible (requires each music app to allows this)
Advanced:
- Pin music apps in auto
- Launch music apps from auto, and return on music selection! (Yay!)9Hi everyone! A long overdue update:
The development is still going strong, there have just been some vacation and work taking my time. Also, even though this is an alpha release I want to minimize the bugs as we’re closing in on 2k active users on the Play version alone. Even though I have to pull it from Google Play, more on this:
From the first release of this app, every time I have uploaded a new build to Google Play there have been some issues with the build. Within Android Auto, Google only allows audio and messaging apps. Sometimes they would give me a limited approval, other times they would reject the build. The weird thing was that when it got rejected, I could just create the same build with a new version number and then it would be approved when I tried again or a little later. After getting the app released the first months this way, it became clear it wasn’t viable when I wanted to push small bugfixes.
So I decided to reach out to Google, they looked into it and found that apps that allow other apps to play in AA are not allowed. So no point of keeping it on Google Play as I can’t update it. You can read their answer below.
So what’s next?
From now on, only the XDA version will be updated. The advanced version are almost ready to go, I have been using it for over a month now and believe it is ready for a release next week. It is awesome!
I know this is a long post for a change. But for those that are interested, I wanted to share it with you
Finally, you guys are awesome! Firstly I can see you are great at helping each other when I have been away and as always, thank you for the kind words here, on email and etc. I will get to answer the post here, that have been unattended.
Dev love <34Hi all, the annoying play update is fixed and a updated have been pushed to XDA to set a higher app version
Hmm, is this happening both from XDA Labs and the website? You can find all previous versions here http://jonske.dk/archive.html4
