Changelog

v1.3.1 : 2026-08-21

This release is mostly about reliability. Songs now play all the way through instead of stopping partway, seeking to any point in a song actually works, and downloads finish completely instead of cutting off. Alongside that: a redesigned bottom nav, playlist importing straight from a YouTube URL, search history, and Resona will now let you know right in the app when a new release is out.

Published as 1.3.1 instead of 1.3.0. The original tag ran into a naming conflict on GitHub's side before it could be finalized, so the version moved forward rather than trying to reuse it. No functional difference from what 1.3.0 would have been.

Highlights

  • Playback reliability was tracked down to its actual root cause: which YouTube client identity resolved the stream. Songs used to stop partway through, seeking snapped back to the start, and downloads never finished. Switching to a client that isn't cut off partway through a file fixed all three, confirmed by playing a track continuously for minutes straight through the point that used to fail, seeking far ahead of what was buffered, and completing a full download in one pass.
  • The bottom navigation was redesigned as a floating, morphing pill bar with a smooth show and hide animation instead of a hard cut.
  • Playlists can now be imported straight from a YouTube URL. Paste the link into the Library to bring it in.
  • Search history is now saved and quickly reachable from the Search screen.
  • Add to playlist and Share are both wired up from the Now Playing screen's overflow menu.
  • Resona now checks for new releases and shows a dismissible banner on Home when one is out, linking straight to the release.

Fixes

  • Skipping to the next or previous track no longer gets silently undone by a leftover retry scheduled a moment earlier.
  • Seeking responds faster, and playback starts sooner after tapping a song.
  • A visitor identity rejected by the CDN no longer permanently locks a track out of the clients that actually work.
  • Blank artist names in Recommended For You now backfill correctly.
  • Typography consolidated onto the app's own named type styles.

Known Issues

  • None currently known.
