[iOS][Bug]: System-Events should pause the playback #109

Open elmoritz opened 2 years ago

elmoritz commented 2 years ago

I have used Mimir constantly and had one Issue with it while also using Maps.app to navigate to a destination.

Every time Maps tells me what to do next the audio playback should stop or decrease the volume.

Right now it was difficult to understand the directions or it took some time and in that case I missed a lot of the podcast.

Maybe this might be something to implement😎

@elmoritz this was normally handled automatically by iOS. A little searching shows that a setting was removed to customize the navigation volume. I'm not sure if Mimir would get a notification of some kind to let me know I should lower the volume: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253193047

I'll keep looking into this and see if there's some kind of fix.

@gdavis It could be that this setting isn't there any more. a few years ago there where 2 options to handle it.

  1. Stop the playback completely while navigation takes over
  2. reduce the volume and increase it again after the navigation announcement.
