I recently passed my driving test and I need a music app that plays local files and can be controlled by google assistant for handsfree. I’ve been using AIMP for ages and its worked great but I can’t specify any songs or playlists via the assistant, I can only tell it to “play music on AIMP” and it plays whatever I was playing before. I would much prefer a FOSS app to do this but if there isnt one available that works with the assistant then it doesent have to be FOSS. If I can’t find an app that suits my needs spotify would probably be my only option but I’ve got a large library of music already downloaded and i’d much rather not pay for premium just for the ability to play my local files lol.
I think GA support + FOSS will be hard to find. That’s often a feature for paid apps, but too niche for foss
One option might be to use Mycroft, the FOSS speech assistant. If I understand correctly you’d have to install support for playing local music - I found one such plugin, but it hasn’t been updated in a few years so who knows if it’ll work.
