Phonograph commits the same sin as every other player in that swipe changes tabs and is therefore a total waste of a premium gesture.
I went into the offline mobile music player rabbit hole recently too. I tried like a dozen and personally I think none of them are sufficient, including Symphony.
The most important functionality for me is queuing e.g. how it works and how easy it is to use and it’s just a horrible experience for virtually every player. So disappointing 😣
Hey, this is definitely getting really close. However, I think for this to work our phones would need to be connected to my Wireguard all the time, right?
Apprise is interesting. One of the many things it talks to might be what I’m looking for. I’ve seen multiple instances on the Internet of people using some kind of notification to trigger an automation software on the phone which actually sets the alarm. That might be the route to go.
Home Assistant is an interesting idea. I only learned about it recently but I know it’s hella dense and I feel like figuring out how to get it to do this one thing might be a huge task. I’ll keep it in mind though if nothing else pops up.
I’ve never been able to get a calendar to reliably trigger alarms :(
Another user posted about photoprism, which has AI powered features like facial recognition. Might be worth checking out.
Man, fraggles really do love radish though.
