It’s not out of the question, there are a lot of requests for android auto in the repo, I just can’t get to them yet with any confidence until I can test.
Some ideas are good, but I will use the safety rules as a hard guidance once I do get to it.
I did get to use auto while on holiday and it was sweet. I can see wanting more control but also feel too much can be a bit dangerous, might as well be looking at my phone while driving which is bad lol.


I need a dev environment to even see the changes I make actually make it there. There is a flag to enable the 5 star rating on the main screen, it’s off by default. Have you tried that? I am not sure if that transfers to auto (i don’t think it does)
As far as the safety thing, I have to read the docs -> I believe there are guidelines and if it fails them, they block the whole app. So I want to keep it simple until I understand the requirements.

I’m still working on setting up an android auto dev environment. It’s been a challenging however I’ve made progress so I may have it up soon.
That being said, I’ve been told I need to make sure I pass the safety test/guidance to get into the google play store.


Thanks, Not particularly. I’ve already have a bug where something broken between updates I’m tracking down but feel free to open a ticket if you find something that is not already a open issue.


Try it, I’d be curious to see what happens? The release before has a debug version if you want to grab the logs.


Fantastic! I just added the heart/like feature there as well and wasn’t sure if showed up on android auto.
Need to figure out how to get a test environment for that.


That’s an old version from last year. If you get the latest from github you should have android support, given the caveat that you have to make the adjustments for an unknown app (check out the docs)
The other thing that might hang you up is if you use graphene OS. The degoogled version lacks auto support.


Yeah, I’m not sure. I know a few people who run their servers behind a reverse proxy. I don’t think the app cares as long as the response is correct and endpoints exposed properly.
I know there is a PR for basic auth that I have not yet rolled in because I need to test it but perhaps you can test this out and let me know?


I am, in particular in switching over to a rename/rebrand. That stuff is challenging for me. here’;s the discussion https://github.com/eddyizm/tempo/discussions/111


Thanks, yes, I am leaning towards Tempus which is roughly latin for tempo and similar - logo is has some candidates -> https://github.com/eddyizm/tempo/discussions/111


yeah, open a PR and I’d check it out for sure. The playlist functionality needs a lot of love.


It’s not perfect but it’s working. What app are you using?


Hi non_burgler, I am also a tempo user, it was my daily driver for sure.
Yes, I kept going back to check for updates and got into a issue thread someone else starred to get a status update. I have been through a few apps like all of us have and thought it a shame to see this die.
Tried to get access to the repo but the last update was December 2024, so I forked it and started by merging in good looking prs that were pending.
That was a few months ago now and we’ve been making forward progress since.
I hope to figure out how to update the logo and change the name a bit to get it into app stores again but the graphic stuff is a challenge for me lol.
The base is 3.9, my releases/changes start with 3.10+


Thanks! Yeah I’m not sure why I waited so long to join lemmy.
Glad to hear!
Depending on which version of Tempo you switched it, most things would be the same as I had forked it at 3.9 and started my releases at 3.10 I love listenbrainz! Playlists still need work. the only format I’ve seen consistent issues is wma (i know i have some old files I had to replace)
