Google Voice Search "Listen To" Default Action

[Jinded]

I love that Poweramp is integrated with Google Voice Search, but I think it could go one step further and let you set a default action for the "Listen to..." command. Right now, it is essentially like doing a search within Poweramp and showing you the list of results. Since I (and I'm sure many others) primarily use the voice search in my car, this causes me to still have to look down and make a selection on my phone after the search.

I think it would be convenient if we could have a default action once the search completes: either play top result, enqueue top result, or show results (the current implementation). My personal favorite would be the enqueue option, that way if I'm listening to a playlist but have a sudden urge to listen to a random song in my library, I could tell easily tell my phone to play it, after which it would return to the playlist, all without having to look at the screen.

Thanks for the consideration.

Me too please, the voice function is there for when you can't easily look at or tap the screen, so it's a bit pointless if it does not do what it says...

I agree, this feature is pretty much essential for anyone who bikes, runs, or drives a lot. Voice commands are the only thing I miss about my old iPod.

 

It would also be great if you could do this based on ID3 tags, rather than by search terms. For example "Listen to Album: '<album name>'." This saves the confusion of having a lot of self-titled albums and title-tracks on albums.

 

It still seems a little strange to me that Poweramp is one of the more expensive music apps and still doesn't support voice commands.
