Integrate with Waze
Waze has this new feature - an audio kit that allows 3rd party apps to play audio in the Waze app (see https://www.waze.com/audioplayer). Several large players (Spotify, Deezer) have already done this integration.
As most of my listening is done on the road it would be a great improvement. I also saw that other users had issues with the current situation.
If you want this to happen, please add the feature request on Waze Uservoice page. and make sure to vote for it.
On my side the development has been done for months. The only thing preventing this from happening right no is that Waze stopped adding new apps to the music player app list…
Thanks

Good news, I think:

Hi
I’m in contact with the staff about this. The good news is that they confirmed the Waze Audio kit is still available and “we’re still onboarding new partners (we’ve recently onboarded a new partner)”. I’ve forwarded them the information you provided above. -

After asking Waze about this on their main tester/developer forum (not their uservoice) in 2021 I finally had a response:

January 19Hi. Checking old suggestions I found this one :slight_smile:
Waze offers an audio kit for developers. In this case, I think it’s the Podcast Addict team that should implement it. Check the kit here: Waze Audio Kit https://developers.google.com/waze/intro-audio

Podcast Addict is more useful and complete than DEEZER or else...
Maybe in the future... -

Podcast Addict integrates with Android Auto as does Waze. I think that's a better way to go. Anyone with an Android can run Android Auto. You don't need a car that supports it.

Unfortunately this only depends on Waze.
For now they are not interested by Podcast Addict supporting this feature... -

I totally agree with you guys! The lack of this feature is really annoying. Best Regards, Ronaldo Russell

Unfortunately, major apps only are considered for now...

This would be incredibly helpful! The podcast apps that have added this so far are really abysmal apps.
