This version brings support for Android Auto integration and allows you to add feed groups as a tab on the main page. Multiple improvements and fixes to the YouTube and SoundCloud implementations were made, and progress on the refactor continues steadily. Oh, and you can meet the team at FrOSCon!

    As a note, you have to follow these easy steps to setup:

    • Go to the Android system settings
    • Navigate to Connected devices > Connection preferences > Android Auto (you can also find it by inserting “Android Auto” in the search box)
    • Scroll to the bottom until you find “Version”
    • Click multiple times on “Version” to activate developer settings
    • Press “OK” in the activation dialog
    • After activation, click on the 3-dot menu in the top-right and go to “Developer settings”
    • Scroll down until you find “Unknown sources” and tick the checkbox
    • Restart your phone
    • You should now be able to use NewPipe in the car interface!

        Not only Google, but also the automotive sector. It’s almost guaranteed to have a lot of hoops to jump through till you can run a simple app like this.

        I don’t know which phone you use, but for Graphene OS with sandboxed google play + auto, this is the way:

        • System settings
        • Apps
        • Sandboxed Google Play
        • Android Auto
        • Android Auto settings
        • (then continue from here with dev mode)

        I did follow these steps and newpipe appears in my app list. However, the app doesn’t do anything besides showing a black screen.
