GoneMAD Music Player 3.1.3

By

3.1.3 will hopefully be the last update for 3.1.x.  I was able to fix all of the major bugs reported and minor bugs that were fixable with a reasonable amount of effort.  I'll shortly begin to focus on 3.2 which will mostly be a 100% tab based navigation UI option (similar to holo theme of GMMP 2.x).  I also plan on investigating better external/removal storage support.  If its possible to improve support without using the storage access framework, that'll be done for 3.2, otherwise it will have to wait until the next audioengine is ready (most likely).

Google is requiring all app updates must target android 11 (which forces support for scoped storage) starting in november, so my goal is to finish up 3.2 sometime in early october.  This should allow enough time for any essential fixes before that november deadline.  Updating GMMP for scoped storage might take a few months so I wanted to get a release in before I was forced to support scoped storage.

Changelog:

3.1.3 (2021/07/25):

New:

  • Removed unused READ_PHONE_STATE and BROADCAST_STICKY permissions

3.4.17 and 3.5 Beta 1 Released

By
I was not planning on putting out any more 3.4.x updates, however google refused to approve the 3.5 beta due to some policy updates that caused the existing 3.4.x version already released to no longer be compliant.  Therefore 3.4.15-3.4.17 are basically the work I've been doing on 3.5 for the last 16 months, but with all the new features disabled.  I would like to put them through more testing before enabling to the public, hence the beta. 3.4.17 (2024-10-25): Fixed crash on android 14+ trying to verify the unlocker 3.4.16 (2024-10-24): Fixed multi select in album details highlighting the wrong item 3.4.15 (2024-10-23): Update target api level to 34 Updated dependencies Manual scans are no longer ran in a foreground service due to google's new policies Last played time added to song info pop up Fixed issue where extra space was added in artists with numbers in name Increased full search limit from 100 to 10000 results Fixed issue with files missing tags showing up in the unkno...

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.
