Soundure is a music player app for offline music playback. General features, such as playlist creation/management, a music player interface and track management are all present, but I've also added a quality-of-life feature that I personally felt the need of while listening to music on existing apps: dynamic volume.
Dynamic volume automatically adjusts the volume of the currently playing track, depending on surrounding noise. I was inspired to implement this feature one day while I was listening to music in a noisy train
Even though this app was developed with React Native, I've only tested it on Android
- Playlist creation
- Track upload from devide and external
- Track and playlist editing
- Different kinds of playlist shuffling
- Dynamic volume adjusting
- Daily inspirational quotes in the home screen (used API)
- Clone the project with
git clone https://github.com/LiviuCocianu/soundure.git
- Open a terminal of your choice and navigate to the cloned directory
- Install the required packages with
npm i
You will need an Expo account before proceeding to the next steps, you can make one for free
- Install the Expo Application Services (EAS) client with
npm install -g eas-cli
- Log into the Expo account you just made with
eas login
- Build the APK file with
eas build --platform android --profile production
. You will be put in a waiting queue, since Expo gives priority to paying users, then the app will be built on their servers. A link to the build progress and download section will be generated for you in the terminal! As of the date this README was written at, Expo gives 30 Android builds/month to non-paying users
If you don't want to follow the lengthy steps above to build your own APK, or if they don't work anymore, you can try this demo I've compiled
