GoneMAD Music Player 3.0.6

By

Note: 3.0.6 broke the back button in the folder view.  I pushed 3.0.7 fixing that which make take a bit to get approved.  Sorry!

Folder view is now available as a tab.


I also added some filename based presets to the browser.


There were a lot of complaints about the 4x1 widget not being resizable vertically so a second 4x1 (listed as GMMP Resize 4x1) widget was added that you can resize.  The original reasoning behind not allowing resizing was because it scaled horribly, but I was able to fix up the layout so it scales decent (but still looks ugly on some devices which is why its a separate widget).  There are also some larger texted presets available for the 4x1 (shown in the 3rd widget below).


3.0.6 (2021/02/12):

New:

  • Added a few filename based presets to song display metadata (under minimalistic)
  • Added folder view as a library tab option
  • Replaced custom metadata creator icon
  • Added help button to metadata creator ui
  • Added 4x1 widget that can resize vertically (GMMP Resize 4x1)
  • Added larger font presets for widget
  • Added 'Enqueue All On Selection' to Advanced folder settings


Fixes:

  • Renamed 'Headset' to 'Wired' to avoid confusion in connection settings
  • Always resume headset/wired and bluetooth were actually swapped in code
  • Fixed issue where folders with no artist or album tags dont show up as an album (should use Unknown Artist - Foldername)
  • Fixed 2nd help menu when queue is added as a tab
  • Fixed issue where song wouldnt play on startup
  • Fixed issue where albumartist sort was not correctly stored in the database
  • Using the custom metadata builder will now switch to the custom list after creation
  • Fixed the overwriting custom metadata when using the metadata creator
  • Scanner should no longer auto clean files if their parent scan path doesnt exist (indicating unmounted sdcard)
  • Potential fix for invisible widget on reboot or app update
  • Fixed custom metadata creator used from widget setup
  • Fixed issue where dialog from widget setup would pop up on the main UI
  • Theme colors should now be properly backed up and restored
  • Fixed crash with embedded art in a cue track
  • Fixed other various crashes

GoneMAD Music Player 4.0 released and is now free!

By
GoneMAD Music Player 4.0 is now fully rolled out!  After 14 years since initial release as being a paid app, I've decided to try something different and switch to being free with ads.  The market is completely different nowadays compared to the early 2010s.  Ads are everywhere and users typically do not want to pay for apps / games / etc.  But don't worry, those users who previously purchased the unlocker or in app purchase unlock will continue to get an ad free experience.  New users will also have the option to purchase an in app purchase to permanently remove ads.   Note: There is a bug with 4.0 where users with the standalone unlocker may see ads when they first upgrade.  You typically fix this by just force stopping the app and restarting.  Ads should not come back after that.  Alternatively you can contact gonemadsoftware@gmail.com and I can help you out as well.  I have no intention on making users who already paid see ads.

4.1

By
4.1 marks the end of life for Android Lollipop (5.0/5.1).  Some of GMMP's dependencies require the SDK level 23 or higher, so I was forced to also increase the min sdk to 23 (android 6.0).  According to the google play store statistics there are around 50 or so users on 5.0/5.1, so I do apologize for dropping support.  10 years of support is fairly decent nowadays anyway.   I've also increased the target SDK to android 16.  With this increase I had to account for the forced "edge-to-edge" that google is making all apps support.  If any UI element ends up behind the navigation buttons, certainly let me know.  I am pretty sure I did everything correctly but I only had one device that I was able to test on (pixel 6a) 4.1.0 (2025-09-03): Updated target SDK to Android 16 Updated dependencies Updated translations
