Been using it for awhile now. Do we have a way to use our phones as the play yet? I want to be able to listen on my phone with headphones or even in my car with Android Auto. I would love to be able to delete my Spotify app. I still use the service because the radio feature is still much better than MA. But once I can do everything that Spotify can be I can cancel my Spotify account.
You can check out music streaming servers such as Navidrome (Jellyfin also works) for that together with a compatible client such as symphonium This is a closed source app but the most feature complete. I use Tempo but has no android auto support I believe.
I prefer native music apps because, in my experience, they offer a smoother experience compared to PWA. I don’t mind using PWA, but the Music Assistant PWA sometimes annoys me with its delay in loading items.

AFAIK you can enable the snapcast server and then use an app like SnapCast to stream to your mobile devices.
