GoneMAD Music Player 2.1.0 Released

After 5 months of development, GMMP 2.1 is finally here.  This release was mainly a stop gap between 2.0 and 3.0 which will have an entirely new UI.  There have been some long awaited features that I felt needed to be added before dropping support for some older versions of android.  2.1 drops support for jelly bean and 3.0 will drop the support for kit kat.  However 3.0 is a long ways away and will truly benefit all the 5.0+ users since google added some great UI apis in android 5 (like the animation api). The new update will be rolled out to 20% of the users today and I will increase that to either 50% or 100% depending on whether issues pop up. Some of the bigger newer features are as follows: Share Option The ability to share what you are playing with others in text form and file form have been asked for by tons of users and gmmp 2.1 finally adds that option. Selecting Now Playing Info will let you share the name of the current artist and song you are playing i

GMMP 2.1 Beta 6: Google Now Voice Commands

After all this time of getting reports of GMMP not showing up as a "default music player" I was able to fully understand what the issue is.  It wasnt until recently that someone specifically mentioned google now + default player (the first part was always left out, so i made the assumption it was the default player when opening files), so I started playing around with google now's "play X" voice commands.  GMMP did not show up there and after a little research into the voice commands, I decided it would be worth the extra day or 2 to add that in before closing out the 2.1 beta. So now you should be able to select GMMP when doing voice commands like "Play Artist" or "Play Song By Artist" or "Play Album By Artist" 2.1.0 Beta 6 (10/07/2016) -Fixed issue where sdcard write access is not saved when using 'save to playlist' -Fixed crash when saving new playlist -Force left align for text from tags stored in a RTL language
