By
Visit the forum post for the download link and full list of changes.

There is only one new skin (silver) currently, but I will be working the next few days to get at least one different color, and then I will work on the ICS skin.  In the mean time there are tons of other changes that I wanted to get out there for testing.

New Features:
-Added skinning system
-Added silver skin (colorless) (switch to this via Preferences -> UI -> Skin Selector)
-Added album art to the album lists (Can be disabled in Preferences -> Library -> Album Library -> Show Album Art)
-Added ability to view/play all songs for a genre or artist, and all albums for a genre
-The tags in now playing are now much more customizable. There are 6 slots where you can select between 15 different tags to display.
 (Preferences->Now Playing->Displayed Tags)
-Can now choose between showing icons, text, or nothing before the tags in now playing (Preferences->Now Playing->Tag Display Style)
-Added transparent variation of the 4x4 widget
-Added quality setting for album art downloads (lower quality = smaller file size). PNG downloads ignore this setting
-Image size for the album art search is now configurable (All sizes, large, medium, small)
-Added option to download album art to album's folder (Preferences -> General -> Album Art Preferences -> Uncheck Download To Custom Location)
-Added custom searches in the manual album art downloader

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
