Beatwave v4.0 Release Notes

Welcome to Beatwave v4.0! πŸš€ This update is all about making the app look, feel, and run exactly the way you want it to. From a completely refreshed aesthetic and powerful new collaboration features to a heavy-duty tech stack migration, here is what is new in this major release.

🎨 What’s New
Revamped UI & Custom Themes
Complete UI Overhaul: We have completely redesigned the user interface to give you a cleaner, modern, and highly intuitive look that keeps your focus entirely on the music.

Make It Yours: Express your style with all-new custom themes. Personalize your app with a fresh palette of colors that match your creative energy.

Improved Listen Together (BeatLabs Local Server)
Sync Up Locally: Take your jam sessions to the next level! We have drastically improved the Listen Together feature running on the BeatLabs local server. Enjoy lower latency, better synchronization, and a seamless shared listening experience with your friends on the same network.

πŸš€ Enhancements & Smoother Experience
Snappy Navigation: We have optimized animations and transitions across the entire application, making switching between menus feel incredibly fluid and instant.

Reduced Friction: Heavy layouts now load faster, giving you a seamless, uninterrupted workflow from the moment you launch the app.

πŸ› οΈ Bug Fixes & Stability

  • Major Layout Fixes: Resolved significant user interface glitches that previously caused layout overlapping and broken scaling on certain screen sizes.

  • Stutter Elimination: Fixed low-level stability bugs to completely prevent occasional audio and visual stuttering during heavy usage.

  • General Performance Polishes: Under-the-hood optimizations to ensure a much more stable overall environment.

...and more major bug fixes and exciting features are coming soon!

πŸ’» Tech Stack Powering Beatwave v4.0

Language: Kotlin (leveraging modern asynchronous flows and robust memory handling)

Build System: Gradle (optimized multi-variant builds)

Database Infrastructure: Room Database (safe migrations and caching layers)

Media Core: Media3 Ecosystem (advanced audio routing, Crossfade support, and background playback preservation)

Web Ecosystem- (BeatLabs & Landing Network)
Front-End Engine: Lightweight, high-performance static architecture built raw with HTML5, CSS3, and modern JavaScript (JS) to ensure sub-second page loads.
