    How about app-based volume control? Is that an option yet? I just want to be able to listen to music and have the driving directions on at the same time without hearing “TURN LEFT IN A QUARTER MILE MOTHERFUCKER!” at some obnoxious volume. Keep your ai bullshit and fix that first.

            TIL thanks. That’s still a shitty workaround, first because it takes three menus inside of settings, something I’d rather not adjust while driving. And that’s just the one app. I appreciate the tip, but my gripe with Google remains unabated.

              Its annoyingly in sub menus but that seems to be because it’s for your whole account

              When I set mine lower it applied across all 3 devices I used maps on

              So the idea is probably most people like it at a setting once they find it, so save it and apply moving forward, not to be adjusted during the drive

              The option for per-app is still great for other uses though for sure

      There’s a bell icon on the main page or in the main menu you can click it to ! Meaning alerts only so only like slowdowns or reroutes are communicated

        But I want the directions, I just don’t want them louder than the music. It’s a basic feature for all Android devices, and the Google Pixel is the only phone that has this defect.
