I didn't ask but the very same app is working well on my old phone.
I had another app downloaded on another store where I have the same problem

This is normal. Every app which is installed by the internal installer does not show up.

Hello All,
Since a while, whenever I click a video located on a website or even Facebook app I am redirected to youtube http website, when i click the video it is downloaded to my device and then i can watch it on the device media player.
What I used to was whenever i click on a video the YouTube app runs automatically and plays the video but i am not sure how to restore this, any ideas ?

You need to try clearing the default actions of all your gallery apps or apps you think are related in settings --> apps
You will not lose data if you select 'clear defaults'

Most of the related apps have the "clear defaults" option dimmed :S

Then they don't have default actions set
So it didn't work?

Found an alternative app for sending Spotify info to the Pebble music controller that seems to work.
(BTW I'm using galaxy s3 and liquid smooth ROM 4.4.2).
why don't you share what you found as an alternative?
Alternative app
I use Media Utilities. It works with Spotify and Podcast (and possibly more).
The disadvantage is, that it needs notification access to read out the current track/podcast. Additionally the user interface is a little odd and buggy.
But it works and nothing bad has happened yet.
...yay, can't post links as a newbie, but I bet you can find it yourself in the Play store ( com.batescorp.notificationmediacontrols.alpha )

Sorry I forgot to put that in there. It was not a good solution anyways it was a strange app that constantly increased the volume.
Tried Media Utilities as posted above and it works!
It does not show Album though.
In the app I added spotify, and then in settings under Application Integration i checked the marker next to Pebble Watch.
Use Music Boss to fix this, and you'll also gain the best watch app for Pebble as a bonus n

[App] Google Play Music -> launch and autoplay

Hi all,
I've made a simple app that decreases number of clicks required to play songs via Google Play Music (which is important for safety when you drive).
When you click this app's icon it launches Google Play Music and immediately starts playing. The behaviour is similar to FM radio behaviour on most head units.
You are welcome to download and use it (it's free): Music Start and Play (Google Play Store)
Nice! I haven't received my head unit yet but I'll definitely install this once I get it. Thank you!
Do you plan on doing this for any other music apps?

I've made a similar app for PowerAmp (it is not published in Play Store). But I don't know if anyone need it.

Actually this can be done via the PowerAmp app itself. Therefore I cancelled the app release.
Go to PowerAmp settings -> Audio -> Audio focus -> Resume on start.
Done

Thanks a lot! I did not know it was right under the hood, though hidden in an unsuspecting manner.

Android App to display picture from gallery

Hi Everyone,
I am just wondering if there exists an app on Android Auto which only displays pictures (one at a time) which you can select from your phone gallery. I am not referring to wallpaper background which Google has just launched in AA 6.0+. Just like any other app where you can select a song, I would like to be able to select a picture for display.
Thanks for replies.
My best guess is using Plex.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Downloaded and installed Plex but the only options available on AA are Music and Podcasts. You can't access 'Camera Roll' as you can on the mobile device. I presume this may be because of safety?
Sorry but forgot to mention that my phone is non-rooted.

Theres no visual-media app without root. Google doesnt allow that.
Thanks.

Third party apps not showing up on developer mode.

So I'm having a bit of a problem. I like to play my music through pi music player and I've tried everything but can't get it to show up on Android auto. I'm already in developer mode and I have unknown sources enabled but no matter what it doesn't show up to be added in the customize menu option. Can someone please help!
Everybody has this problem now with every 3rd party app. See also the other threads in this forum.
