If you want Android Auto support for RadioDroid now, you can use the latest release of my unofficial fork: https://github.com/morckx/RadioDroid/releases

Im using Android Auto with RadioDroid since almost 3 years and it's working perfectly.

The same as with the original RadioDroid, The free version (originally distributed via F-Droid) lacks some non-open-sourced features, such as casting, I think. If in doubt or if anything does not work as expected, I'd use the play version (originally distributed via the PlayStore). I think I might not have tested Android Auto with the free version.

Sorry for late answer .
So quality sound is the same as "normal" first app I guess ?

Yes, at least the same.

You have to uninstall the regular RadioDroid first, because my unofficial version is signed with different keys.

@morckx Hi, I was looking into a Tunein replacement and found this. Android Auto is something I would really like though. I see you have been working on a PR for this since 2020 (!) #836 but also that Alex has just last week asked you to push some stable stuff (if you have it). It would also be much appreciated from me if you could get AA in here! Thanks in advance for your work here :)

Yes, my fork https://github.com/morckx/RadioDroid (master branch) works with Android Auto (see Changelog on how to activate it), but I don't have time, currently, to rebase it and make a proper PR.

I will test the unofficial fork version but I would love to see Android Auto support on the official version too. I like this app.

How long would it take for the working build to get into f-droid ? (And what will it be versiones) ?

I love your app, thanks for sharing it !

The last build had the android-auto integrated. I do not quiet know if F-Droid has that removed due to auto being proprietary or likewise. Maybe you can ask in F-Droid in Gitlab/Telegram, and they can confirm.
BTW, all the great work is due to Alex. :)

Why is this ticket still open if the support is there ?
F-Droid has 0.86, which seem to be the latest version, is the "integrated support" supposed to show a RadioDroid icon on the auto screen ?

Doesn't seem to be the case with latest version on Play Store 0.86 (git 48ac2d4). AA can't control this app, doesn't list it and doesn't recognize it playing.

It does not work indeed. Not with F-droid version and neither with the Play Store version. Tested Yesterday and today again. I enabled Developer Options in Android Auto but that doesn't make a difference either.

I will go back and check the code once. Probably broken somewhere.

Same here. Would love to use this app also in the car. Especially since OpenRadio seems to be taken over and full with ads and it's payware now.

Thanks for this btw!

@vdbhb59 oh my god you are a hero. I was about to look for a replacement since I just got a new car that supports Android Auto but RadioDroid not being AA compatible. It would be a shame to ditch RadioDroid because no other Radio app comes even close to it. I even thought about somehow integrating RadioDroid in another music player that supports but AA but that didn't work either.

For the love of god, please fix this and add Android Auto support 😄

Many thanks in advance!

Tried several ways, but it seems broken. Also needs a lot of changes in various places. I will revert the changes soon. 🙁
