Voice announcements run entirely in the Android foreground service (works with screen locked). Configurable via web UI before starting GPS: time-based or distance-based intervals, selectable metrics (total time, distance, avg/split/current pace), language (en/de). Also syncs workout pause/resume state to the native service — pausing the workout timer now freezes the Android-side elapsed time, distance accumulation, and TTS triggers. Includes TTS engine detection with install prompt if none found, and Android 11+ package visibility query for TTS service discovery.

Technical Highlights
- PWA with offline support — service worker with network-first caching, offline recipe browsing, and intelligent prefetching
- Bilingual routing — language derived from URL (
/rezeptevs/recipes,/glaubevs/faith) with seamless switching - Nord theme — consistent color palette with light/dark mode support
- Auth — Auth.js with OIDC/LDAP via Authentik, role-based access control
- Progressive enhancement — core functionality works without JavaScript
