PlexAmp on Android-Auto

The new PlexAmp works great on my Phone but I can’t get it to show on Android-Auto.
I have the regular Plex app and it works with Android-Auto.

Has anyone gotten the latest version of PlexAmp to work with Android-Auto?

I don’t think they’ve implemented it yet, which is surprising considering the number of requests for it that came up when Plexamp was introduced.

I too want to be able to pull up Plexamp in Android Auto.

Correct. It is not implemented yet. Casting and Android Auto/CarPlay abilities are being left out initially.

Count me in on PlexAmp for Android Auto as well, would love to see that. I use the regular Plex app now, always been a little buggy for AA at times, definitely improved over time though.

It’s coming… I hope it’s here soon as well.

Is there anywhere we can report bugs?

If you post it, the beta testers can relay it to the team. What bug did you find?

Been listening through the new app on PC since 20:30 UK time, gapless is bringing the next tune in slightly too early

Gotcha. You can try turning off Sweet Fades (may need to restart the app): Settings -> Playback -> Sweet Fades. Or you’re liking it, but it’s just too early?

That’s actually better, thank you

The app has started behaving strangely. With sweet fades turned off, the app will occasionally start the next track half way through.

If you need any further info in this, let me know and I’ll try to provide what I can

Anything else you can tell me about it would be great? I assume you’re on Android… wow, you’re staying up really late for this!

Haha, I work nights and am locked down at home. So I’ll be testing every night listening to music whilst I work.

I’m currently using it on pc, windows 10. All was fine except for the slight timing issue on hapless. Once I turned off sweet fades the timing was slightly better, but I then noticed that maybe every third track it would start from half way through, the app was also causing the pc to become unresponsive. I’ve switched sweet fades back on now and I’ll see if behaviour returns to normal and I’ll report back later

And have you restarted Plexamp after making each change?

Correct

All reported issues now resolved after turning sweet fades back on. I shall turn it off and see if I can replicated the issue I had earlier

Sounds good. If there are exact steps we can use to reproduce it, let us know. Thank you!

They were so close to a useable music app, then they forgot android auto. Were 90% of my music listening happens

It’s in the works. AA, CarPlay and casting is coming in the near future. Hang on for it.

I have been waiting a very long time for Library Radio to work on Andoid Auto.
