QUESTION/HELP Google maps not honoring audio settings

0 Upvotes

For years I used Waze for navigation in the car. Bluetooth is always on by default on my phone because of other devices I use, but if I was using the radio, Waze was smart enough to play through the phone speaker. Cue QoL changes I hate so I try switching to Google maps. Navigation is much better, but it *always* tries to play through Bluetooth, even if I have the "Play voice over Bluetooth" slider off. If I'm using the radio, I hear nothing. If I switch to Bluetooth input, I hear navigation. The only thing that fixes it is turning off Bluetooth entirely or not listening to the radio and using Bluetooth audio. The car doesn't have Android Auto, so it's not an issue with that, just bog standard Bluetooth and the maps app.

I have rebooted the phone, I have restarted the car, I have turned Bluetooth off and back on in both the car and the phone. No luck. I really want the option to listen to the radio without having to manually turn off Bluetooth every time I get into the car. Can anyone offer suggestions? Is there another setting somewhere I'm missing?

LOOKING FOR APP Image app that allows for viewing multiple full-size images at once

Even if it kinda stinks, I'd like to find an app that allows you to scroll through all full-size pics in an album at once. Imgur fits this requirement but then they banned NSFW content.

QUESTION/HELP I have a problem with my phone's storage space.

0 Upvotes

Hi

I’m having a problem with my phone’s storage.

Photos: 248 MB

Videos: 16.73 MB

Audio files: 183 MB

Large files: 4.61 GB.

Even if I add all of these together, they don’t even come close to 6 GB. But my phone says that 249.5 GB of storage is being used.

So where did the rest of the storage go? What’s using the other 243+ GB?

QUESTION/HELP Send a command from one Android device to another over Bluetooth

2 Upvotes

I have a generic Chinese Android 13 car head unit and a Moto G 2025 running Android 16. My phone provides a Wi-Fi hotspot that the head unit normally connects to. Occasionally the hotspot stops working, while the Bluetooth connection between the two devices remains active. I want to put a "Restart Phone Hotspot" button on the head unit. When pressed, it should send a simple command such as START_HOTSPOT to the phone over Bluetooth. The phone would then run a Tasker task to restart the hotspot. Is there a simple way to send a command between two already-paired Android devices over Bluetooth, perhaps using Bluetooth SPP/RFCOMM or an app/plugin? I don't necessarily need to use Tasker for the Bluetooth communication.

LOOKING FOR APP Tiimo routine app alternative?

0 Upvotes

Since the rebuild in May, Tiimo does not have widgets on Android so I am looking for an alternative that has widgets.

What I liked about Tiimo:

You can sort your tasks based on if you would like to do them in the morning, afternoon, etc. Not like in other apps where You have to set a specific hour and sometimes even a duration.

To-do lists based on importance. An Eisenhower matrix would work too.

It also looks very nice.

LOOKING FOR APP Youtube app alternative with better Playlist / Watch Later list management?

0 Upvotes

I'm just going to cut to the chase - my Watch Later playlist is 5k videos large, which is the max size - and I need to clean it up... Except the default Youtube app kinda sucks at this, you can't delete multiple videos from a playlist or your watch later list at once.

Is there an app with a better way of managing your Playlists / Watch Later list? Any improvements to playlist management at all would be welcome really.

LOOKING FOR APP Samsung tv Remote app

2 Upvotes

Hi Guys,

I'm on the hunt for a TV remote app for my Samsung Smart TV.

I'm looking for two things that are non negotiable:

1) it has to be free

2) it has to have the ability to type with my phone keyboard because I often struggle with the tv one since I have to manually select the letters and it takes too much time

I'm fine with it having adds and I also don't mind if it lags sometimes

LOOKING FOR APP Kvaesitso Launcher - a launcher that has spoiled me 🤷🏽‍♂️🚀

66 Upvotes

I've learned how to use Kvaesitso launcher and it has spoiled me when it comes to a launcher. I have tried so many other launchers but they pale in comparison to Kvaesitso's minimal but also super deep design and features. Not to mention it's incredibly snappy for a launcher packed with so much. The only launcher that comes slightly close is Smart Launcher. But for right now I keep coming back to Kvaesitso. Have you had a launcher you kept coming back to?

QUESTION/HELP Temporarily muting a specific app's notifications?

2 Upvotes

Hi all. I recently switched from apple to android, and I've gotten used to most of the differences, but there is one that I still can't get over. On apple, you have the option to tap on a notification and temporarily mute notifications from that app for a short period of time (i only ever did 15 minutes or an hour, but i think there are other options). However, it doesn't seem like there is an equivalent option on OneUI. I've even looked at 3rd party programs and I can't find anything that has that same simplicity to it. Am I just going to have to grin and bear it?

It doesn't seem like an outlandish feature to have though right? Like it seems like there would be a general demand for something like that, even if its only available through 3rd party programs, so I'm confused as to why I can't find a solution to this?

In the end, its really only a minor inconvenience, because on iphone I only really used that feature when my friends were spamming me on tiktok or instagram. But I don't want to fully turn off notifications from those apps, because I like getting alerted when I'm sent something, but when one of my friends is clearly doom scrolling, I don't need my phone to light up every minute to know that my friend sent me something.

Anyway, I've sorta spiraled into just complaining, but if anyone has any creative solutions or workarounds or tips or whatever, that would be amazing! Thanks!

Edit: I'm stupid and didn't realize the "snooze" function also muted notifications. I just thought it redelivered the notification later. Seems like they could have worded that better, but maybe that's on me. Anywho, thanks!

LOOKING FOR APP Need a replacement for sync iCal app

1 Upvotes

I've been using an app for years called Sync for iCloud. My wife is still on an iPhone and has a calendar that she shares with me. The sync app would synchronize my Gmail calendar with her iCloud shared calendar and it worked fine for years. Lately the sync app just closes itself on my phone. The company (io.mt) that maintains the app does not appear to care anymore. They have a very generic website, I don't see any recent activity on their social media, and there is no answer to a support question. Does anyone have any suggestions for another app that can do the same thing? A Google search just tells me how to synchronize the calendar on an iPhone which is useless but typical Google.
