3.4.0

Plans for 3.4 changed a bit when google announced they will be hiding apps on newer versions of android if they dont target the newer sdks.  GMMP always tries to target one of the more recent versions of android, but the unlocker has no need for that since its essentially just a license key.  As of May 1st the unlocker will be hidden on newer versions of android to those who have not already purchased.  Because of this, the focus of 3.4 was to get in app purchases working to allow users to buy the full version after May 1st.  There is a new 'Purchase' section in the settings where the unlocker can now be purchased.

One other change in 3.4 is the support for the Android 13+ media controls.  They changed around how to customize them, so that is reflected in a new 'Media Controls' section of the settings.


The language can also be changed for just GMMP via the system settings



The changelog itself is fairly small but I did a large update of all the libraries / dependencies that GMMP uses.  Some had not been updated in 4+ years, so it took quite some work.  The 3.4.0 Beta is live on Google Play.  Will be fully released in a few days.

3.4.0 (2023-04-26):

New:

  • Updated target api level to Android 13 (api level 33)
  • Added IAP version of the unlocker (Settings -> Purchase)
  • Notification settings replaced with 'Media Controls' settings to reflect Android's Media Controls on Android 13+
  • Add ability to change GMMP's language through android system settings on Android 13+
  • Updated dependencies
  • Added Swedish translations and updated other translations

Fixes:

  • Fixed issue where detail artwork did not take up the full view
  • Lyric view will reset back to the top on track change

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.
