GoneMAD Music Player 3.0 Beta 10

Split view has finally been added back as a new experimental option.  It was marked as experimental since its definitely not 100% perfect right now and it could take some time to get right.  I'll continue to make improvement over the beta but it will most likely stay experimental until sometime after 3.0.  What exactly does experimental mean?  It simply means that things may not work correctly and users should not expect them to be fixed any time soon.  The option can be found under advanced settings -> UI.  Split mode has a different set of default settings compared to regular view, but most things can still be customized like the album art background and all that.





Beta 10 also added the ability to customize the displayed metadata in most of the views (folder view and a few others will be added in Beta 11).  This works basically the same way as now playing does except the available variables are different depending on the view.  I'll be updating the documentation on the forums to list which variables are available to each view.  If you try to import a custom metadata line that has an unsupported variable, the import will fail and you will get an error message.

Just like now playing, there are a bunch of presets to choose from, however some views that only expose a single variable (like artist, albumartist, genre, and composer) do not have many variations at this time.  My hope is to expose some new variables to those view like "total albums", "total artist", etc to allow a bit more variation.

GoneMAD Music Player 4.0 released and is now free!

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

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...
