1.4 Progress Update 1

By
For the last 2 weeks I've been reworking a lot of the lower level code to make playback more efficient and to decrease the size of the audioengine libraries.  The native libraries are now around 2.2 mb which is around 800kb smaller.  While most users wont care about this, it will benefit the older devices with limited memory.

I replaced the ogg decoder with a fixed point decoder called tremor.  This should significantly reduce the amount of cpu needed to decode ogg (and in turn, fix the issue where playback of ogg stutters with the screen off on older devices).  FFmpeg has been updated to 1.0 which results in plenty of bug fixes for tta, wma, alac, ape, wav, and wv decoders.

WMA Lossless and opus are now added to the list of supported formats.

There is still tons more that needs to be added for 1.4, but I plan on putting out a beta version once these low level changes are 100% and then every so often release newer betas once new features are updated

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.

4.1.6

By
4.1.6 has some fixes and one more significant change.  Previously if you decided to turn off the metadata text on the album grid so it only shows the artwork, this would force the same displayed metadata on views like artists -> albums.  Some users preferred to show a list of albums instead of the grid when filtering by artist / album artist / etc.  You can now set the metadata independently between the top level view and the filtered view like the images below. 4.1.6 (2025-12-12): Filtered album, artist, and albumartist list views displayed metadata can now be set independent of the top level list Prompt new users to add audio folders if less than 10 files detected in library Updated translations Fixed issue where multi folder albums scanner setting being off would still group albums in diff folders Fixed rare case where a tab would not load when using a very short custom tab name Fixed hebrew translation not showing up correctly on some devices Fixed bug where app op...
