What do you mean by audio support for directions? There’s turn by turn audio output already iirc
Now that you say it, I do see some "Voice instructions" support in the settings. I'll need to figure out how to connect an engine to it to get it working. Thanks! :)
I’d tell you how I did it if I remembered, but I have zero memory of setting it up lmao sorry. Good luck!
If you use Android, it should normally just work with the TTS engine set in android settings.
Unless you don't have one or your engine does not offer either the map language or english.
I am currently working on enabling other TTS languages and notifying the user more noticeably about TTS problems.
I'm on GrapeheneOS, so maybe because I chose not to have Google Assistant setup up on my phone.
Yeah you may need to install another TTS engine, don't know the Graphene TTS situation exactly.
I like SherpaTTS for example.
