Very good stuff!

I use it with the now playing feature - basically phone picks up music on the radio,.detects the song and artist and throws a notification. This app picks that up and shows it as a notification on the car screen! I have disabled read out. So it stays as a simple notification.

Quick question - haven't been able to try it - if I set zero seconds as the duration, will it leave the notification forever?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tom1807:
Tested but not working as expected. Line is an application which doesn't support Android Auto.

Positive: Yes, Car Notifier shows there is a message on Line.

Negative: Can't do anything, it won't read the message, the notification stays in grey color and nothing happens when I click on the message.

Cheers

Tom
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bggold:
You can't click the notification to have it read at this time. If you want them read to you enable the read option.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tom1807:
"Read out notifications" is enabled in the settings, my Honda headunit is hacked and I have root access, so I don't think this is related to that.

Cheers

Tom
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bggold:
I'm sure you have but have you checked all the permissions?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tom1807:
CarNotifier asks only permissions to Microphone and Phone, both are granted.

Wondering now whether it has something to do with the new Android Auto v3.8.584554 where some on Reddit claim, that notification is broken

Cheers

Tom

Edit: Maybe the the new AA version interferes with CarNotifier, because AA can show now also message preview

More edit: My friend tested on the Samsung S7 (I have a OnePlus 3T). Also on his mobile nothing happens with Line.

Can't read out and nothing happens in AA when click on it

Is there an app for Speed cams like in your obd2aa app, to have only the speed cam notification?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bggold:
I am running the new aa and it is working. Get Emil a bug report right after it happens.

The only thing you can do at this time is swip away the notifications. Clicking them will not do anything.

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tom1807:
After more testing, I do believe the culprit is Line. Gmail works as expected, Facebook also (just for test).

However, Line refuses, which is actually the reason to install the program in the first place.

Probably one of the few programs which won't work.

Great program though.

Hi Emil,

Is it possible to get a button to turn all toggles on, off, toggle all? This would be helpful, as the list of packages/applications is very very very long.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Possible yes, wise probably NO.

I know the list can be VERY long, on the other hand usually you set the apps once then you don't bother with it any more. Setting all on, will mean a big potential to a lot of clutter.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Axxxxel:
I've just spotted your tool some days ago. Very nice, thanks a lot, Emil.

During the last days I did some testing on my way to work. Very cool is the additional warning for my speed trap alarm app (blitzer.de)

May I suggest another UI for the notification selection?

Instead of building a huge list of all available apps with toggle switch there could be a button to add apps to a list of active apps.

This would add the possibility to change individual settings per app like:

- sound on, off

- read out yes, no

- icon settings

- notification black or white lists

- etc

What do you think?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Updated the beta.

Change log:

- Dropped offline language detection (library was causing too many crashes), using Google services instead.

- Fixed some null point references.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Kc7ryd:
Audio only on first notification

Emil,

The new Beta seems to make the app work on my phone with one exception... I only get audio on the first notification... after that no “ping” or voice.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Updated the app again, fixed some more background crash and also enhanced detection of double notification.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Not bad idea, will consider, first I want to make it 100% usable, then pimp it up :)

P.S. How accurate is the German text (prompts for action I mean)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bggold:

Endless notifications

Honda infotainment with latest AA on Pixel 3xl. I have music from Spotify playing and if anything, existing notifications that I don't have cleared prior to plugging my phone to the car. Once an app (that I allow in CarNotifier) triggers a notification, it speaks endlessly, not even finishing the read out for the notification. So basically it just goes "car-car-car-carno-car-car". The only way I can stop it is to unplug my phone. I am also using the latest beta.

Edit: Resolved. Make double sure you enable developer stuff first in AA before installing the app.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JRFabbi:
Hello all.

This app is amazing as we can check notifications from android no matter what is the "app" but when you start to listen a large e-mail and you realize that is really large one is there any way to stop? (because until now I've to disconnect phone to kill everything)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arlievsky:
Hi, just installed it with Android Auto 4.1.590934. Testing on the phone standalone for now. I continue to get whatsapp messages in Hebrew and Russian read by google engine.

In your app in settings WhatsApp is selected, in permissions it has a permission to read notifications. What should be done else to get it working ? Or those languages are just not supported ? If you need any help with supporting Hebrew & Russian - let me know.

Wish I could get this working, sounds like just what I need. I have AA v4.3.591854 running on Pixel XLand a JVC car radio that is AA-enabled. I have set AA permissions and have "unknown sources" on in Developer options.

AA Developer Mode

I'm having issues getting AA 4.4.592343 into developer mode. Tapping About Android Auto does nothing.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Shayne_b:

What if I was doing GrubHub and wanted to accept trip offers from the AA screen? I can see the notifcations but I still cannot click on them. It shows the available notification and updating location but the offer doesn't come through as a notification.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] strangedata:
This app is a great idea and solves a problema that I would've thought trivial for Google.

For some reason though it's not working for me. Asus Zenfone 5z (ASUS_Z01RD), AA 4.5.592854-release, carNotifier downloaded yesterday, Android 9, Chevrolet/GM MyLink 2.

First thing I noticed was that the app list inside carNotifier shows the apps three or four times (i.e. a-z, a-z, a-z, a-z...), but when I select WhatsApp to be notified, all WhatsApp entries in the list are toggled to on at the same time.

The UI in my car has definitely changed, and is better looking than pure Android Auto. When I get a message, carNotifier pops-up a notification, which looks different from that AA usually show, and gives me the option to play or mute the message.

If I select play on a new notification, it switches to Google Assistant and the message is read in English, instead of in Portuguese.

I've rebooted the phone after installing carNotifier.

Anything I can do to get it to work?

Thanks for taking time to create such a promising app.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Adi123456788:
hi guys,

I have the new AA, but anyway on my phone i see the old AA. I have installed CarNotifier, gave access to WhatsApp, set up Developer in Android Auto, rebooted.

Now when i'm in AA on my phone and i get a new message, a CarNotifier card pops up and the message is STILL read in english by the Google Assistant.

Language i'm trying to get my messages read in is ROMANIAN. Does it not support that?

Thanks (sounds like a very good app if i could get it working)

Non Functioning New AA

Good evening.. had the app working like a charm under the older AA version. I received the new AA version, and no notifications except the "standard" ones appear anymore. I tried uninstalling CarNotifier and reinstalling, but nothing. I loved being able to get my Active911 and Gmail notifications through the AA face, so I hope it gets updated.

---------- Post added at 01:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 AM ----------

Just realized (and probably why the question of upgrade vs new install was asked) that because it's a new phone and I didn't do a full restore I had to re-enable Dev mode for AA and enable unknown sources. I'm hoping that does the trick.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Stephanlabbe:
Nice app Emil but I have a little issue

I love the idea of your app as this is really a nice add-on.

This being said I did all required steps on my Samsung Note 9 meaning :

"To use the app you will need to enable unknown sources in Android Auto, simply open Android Auto, go to About, tap the "About Android Auto" header 10 times till you become a developer, then from the 3 dotted right menu select developer options and enable "Unknown sources".

After a fresh install or update please make sure you reboot the device, notifications won't work until a reboot is completed."

Everything worked as expected and I get my notice on the homepage of Android auto for the Gmail app as my goal is to be able to have my email to be read out loud as I drive but my issue is that if I click on the notice, nothing happens meaning it doesn't ask to readme the email and it's like if there was no action registered on the onclick event of the notice ... Any ideas why ?

Hello,

I was trying few times version 1.0 beta 12 and beta 13, but sadly it didn't work as it should.

As I understand it should show notification from the app I want and read the message at loud (in proper language) using google TTS right?

I have android 8, Android Auto 4.8, carnotifier 1.0 beta 12 and 1.0 beta 13 and both worked the same, I had notification, but it didn't read the message and I couldn't do anything with it and after that android auto notifications showed. I was testing it with Telegram. All permissions for carnotifier were allowed and I did restart phone after installed carnotifier.

Regards.

Alderon666
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
I will try to check, yes you got the right idea
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Dehumanizer77:
The app is great, it's exactly what I needed for Android Auto.

However, I have one problem and two suggestions.

First, even though I disabled both "play notification sound" and "read out notification" in settings, I am still getting the notification sound. I just need the notifications without any sound.

As for suggestions, I have noticed that the "seconds before removing newly generated notification" only works in the range 1-99, if I set 100 or more, it drops down to default which is maybe 5 seconds or so. It would be great to have 1. possibility of more than 99 seconds and 2. option of not removing the notification at all.

And my second suggestion is, if it would be possible to display the whole notification after clicking it. As it is now, it only shows a small part of the notification, but if it would be possible to expand the notification to see the whole text, that would be awesome.

Thanks and keep up the good work!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] alderon666:

Its something to do with the language detection.... Which is making it hang.... I need more time to work on this but I don't have it sadly....
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] alderon666:
I'm sure this app is not your priority, since you have Headunit-Reloaded.

To be clear, I will write again, what is not working at my side. I tried all settings and everything that I could think of.

1. App only showing notifications, but Android Auto notifications comes along, no matter if you change that in carnotifier. Also sounds always on, no matter what settings I will choose.

2. App never "says" anything while Android Auto will read SMS (I tested on SMS and Telegram, I didn't have chance to test on anything else, once I get email I think, but it didn't work neither - no reading).

3. I'm not sure, if it's possible, but it would be cool if I can tap on message and dictate SMS, message, mail through google TTS and send it like that.

Anyway, thanks for great work.

Regards.

Hi, I just downloaded and am having an issue - I skimmed the whole thread and didn't see anyone else with the same.

Basically when I open CarNotifier app, it is very slow or unresponsive in trying to scroll through the list. And if I click to turn on an app (or the settings dots), it highlights, but nothing changes.

I only allowed permission to record audio, but I don't see why that would matter for this. (are the other permissions mandatory.
