Media Button Router vs PipePipe
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Media Button Router
In android, app writers decide what priority they get when receiving media buttons (pause/play, previous, next, etc). This can be frustrating to users if they want to use a different app to handle these button presses on their Bluetooth devices. This app attempts to alleviate these pains by providing hands-free selection of the app you want to use to handle media buttons through text-to-speech and use of the previous, next, and play buttons for selection.
PipePipe
NewPipe, reimagined: faster, more stable, and packed with more features. Beyond NewPipe * SponsorBlock (YouTube & BiliBili) * ReturnYouTubeDislike * Bullet comments / Live Chats * Search filters * Search & sort in local playlists * Filter out unwanted items by keywords/channels/... * Music player mode & Background playing * Sleep timer * Fullscreen gestures * Login to watch restricted / premium contents * … and many minor improvements
