GoneMAD Music Player 3.0 Beta 3

By

Now Playing Customizations

Beta 3 ads a lot more customization to now playing and has a new default layout (2).  The customize menu now contains some new entries: Buttons, Background (layout 2 only), Album Art (layout 2 only), and Time Remaining


A new row of 6 buttons was added below the album art.  These new buttons, the fab, and the 4 bottom row buttons besides play/pause can all be changed.  The following video shows how button customization works.

Background style options:


Blurred

Album Art

None
Tweak background parameters


Album art style options:
Sharp

Rounded

Circle

None
Layout 1 also got some tweaks.  The floating action bar is now hidden if any of the extra button row is used.  Layout 1 on smaller devices doesnt exactly give much room for more than a few metadata lines, so it makes sense to still use the FAB.  Using the button customization the FAB's main action and long press action can be customized.




Finally, a new "Material Black" theme was added.



Importing Custom Metadata

The metadata selection UI now has an import button to import custom metadata line json files.  See this forum post for info on building a custom json file:

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.
