One of the most infuriating things about any voice assistant, IMO, is the absolute clunkiness with which you have to try and control music.

I use Android Auto in my car for safety. God forbid I'm listening to a song and want to queue up another one right after. I don't think I've ever gotten that behavior to work without either skipping the current song or adding the second song to the end of the queue. And even that's assuming that it even recognized the proper song out of my library and didn't try to go to Youtube or something.

Meanwhile, if my buddy is riding shotgun, I can just say "Hey, put on Peace of Mind next"




I switched from Apple Music to Spotify and have yet to figure out how to get it to play a playlist. So it’s either “tap on the screen while hurtling down the highway” or “awkwardly tell it to play each individual song after each one completes”.
