3.0 Work in Progress 5: Library view

By
In this update I added a library view similar to the one in the old UI.  I also added in an artist list, genre list, and track list tabs.


The big difference with this one is the toolbar will collapse when you scroll down and if you scroll up it will become visible again


Here is a video of it in action


The plan with the library view is to allow the user to choose which views to add to the library (others will end up in the side navigation view if they are not in the library), the title of those views, and their order.  Below is the chunk of code responsible for building the library, its "hardcoded" currently but will be fairly simple to hook up to the preferences.

v.setupAdapter(listOf(BaseFragmentEntry("Artists", ArtistListFragment::class)
                                  , BaseFragmentEntry("Albums", AlbumListFragment::class)
                                  , BaseFragmentEntry("Genres", GenreListFragment::class)
                                  , BaseFragmentEntry("Songs", TrackListFragment::class)))

I am sure many of you are anxious to try out the new UI, but it is still a ways off.  Some of the views are not too straight forward to code like the equalizer and the browser / folder view, so I expect they will take some time to code.  My plan is to have a working alpha by this fall.  The alpha however will not really contain much customization.  Its really easy to add customization to the code, however actually creating UIs to configure everything is going to take a long time.  Because of this, the alpha will be through a separate group in google+ that users will have to join.  I didnt want to push something so incomplete to the beta channel

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...
