Interested in bringing custom voice tech to Android? I've got the beta program for you!
Spokestack is on a mission to bring private, personalized voice tech to mobile apps, and we're beta testing our newest AutoML service. I can't divulge all its features publicly yet, but they add a whole new dimension to what you can already do in an app using our Android library and tutorials.

Apps with voice control
Good stuff. Nice to see Tasker and Termux being considered as clients upfront. Maybe you'd also get some use out of Spokestack's integrations: we* have a modular system for hooking into different services for different parts of the request pipeline (wakeword/ASR/NLU/TTS). Android ASR and Spokestack NLU work offline like your assistant framework; the rest would require an Internet connect.

Free Public Domain Audiobooks
I recently found the Voice Audiobook Player for Android on the google play store[1][2]. Point it to a folder and it looks in there for audiobooks, one per subfolder, and keeps track of which ones you've read and where you are in each one.
No signup, no ads (albeit maybe analytics and crash telemetry), GPL3 code, fairly minimal and keeps audiobooks away from messing up music playlists or from podcast app complexity. Haven't used it enough to give a full review, but it seems exactly what I wanted and good for Libribox book downloads.

Open source audio book player: Voice
I'm not affiliated with this project but it's really nice for playing your audio books if you've liberated them. Has a nice interface and is used as an experimental platform for new Android technologies. Just wanted to give it a shout-out if anyone is looking for an alternative audio player.

Episodes that explain Hillary Clinton and Benghazi?
There are a lot of YouTube videos that don't need visuals and work just fine as audio. On Android, I use NewPipe to download YouTube videos as audio, and then Voice to listen to it as an audiobook so that I get the same playback controls and playback speed adjustment as if it were a podcast. I added my NewPipe download folder as audiobook folder in Voice, so it automatically picks up new stuff that I download.

Audiobook Player Poll
If Voice is 90% of the way to the app you need, and it sounds like it might be, there's no harm in dropping a feature request on GitHub. I've had great luck working with open source developers in the past, and most are eager to implement new features that would make their app more attractive. You can create an issue about books in subfolders getting merged as a bug while you're at it.
