🔴🟡🟢🔵Google Assistant Routine(s)

1. Automate Community
2. Personalization

Performs automated routines without user interaction.

If you've encountered "no device for audio available" while setting up your routines to start at a specific time, then this is for you.

This flow is an alternative to an alarm as it wakes you up with your desired information without touching your phone eg: weather, daily tasks, reminders, podcast and music on YouTube/Spotify or any app of choice, etc.
Add your routines on the Google app accordingly as it suits you then edit the flow (time, speak block). Tip💡; When adding action to play podcast, don't add it under 'play and control media' section as it doesn't play the latest episodes instead try adding your own actions. Set Google Assistant as your assistant, Gemini runs the routines but it doesn't open external apps at the current stage.

See below how it works

Speech synthesis is a problem for this flow, the version that is currently working good is this one 👇:

Or maybe this one 👇:

Select 'don't auto update apps' on playstore and restart your device after installing the Speech synthesis or when the assistant is not responding, otherwise use the latest version. Some updates works sometimes they don't.

Officially 30 blocks 😃🙏, connected as an example of how to set up yours.

Here's a very good podcast that you can try on the scripture insight routine, RSS feed url:

Incase Google Assistant responds with "for that you'll have to unlock your device" when the screen is locked, well thanks to the maker of this flow below🙏 👇 use it to automatically unlock your device before the routine starts.
