Ampache

The Music app contains an Ampache compatible server. Below, you can find a list of API clients which have been tested to be compatible with it. Feel free to supplement the list if you know any more working clients. For any incompatible clients, you may report an issue and it's possible that the compatibility may be fixed.

The following Ampache client applications have been tested to be compatible with the Music app v1.11.0:

• Ample (Web browser) (*)
• Foam (Web browser) (**)
• Power Ampache 2 (Android) (***)
• Amproid (Android) (****)
• Kodi with the Ampache plugin (multi-platform, tested on Windows 10)
• SubMusic (Garmin watch) (*****)

(*) Requires Music v1.9.0 or newer. Ample v3 requires Music v1.11.0 or newer.

(**) Requires Music v1.9.0 or newer. When checked 2023-10-14, the latest Foam release v0.6.2-beta had a bug breaking the compatibility but it was fixed in the main branch

(***) Requires Music v1.9.0 or newer.

(****) Requires Music v0.17.0 or newer.

(*****) The app can use both Ampache and Subsonic APIs. Ampache is recommended but it doesn't work on Music app versions older than 0.15.1.

The following client applications have been earlier tested to be compatible but seem to be no longer maintained. Most of these will not work on up-to-date OS/platform versions and the rest can't be recommended, either:

• Amdroid (Android)
• Just Player (Android)
• PatchyAmp (Android)
• Power Ampache (Android)
• Tomahawk with the Ampache plugin (abandoned, multi-platform, tested on Windows 10)
• AMPlayer (Chrome plugin, no longer works on recent Chrome versions)

HISTORICAL NOTE: The Ampache API doesn't work on Nextcloud versions 20.0.0 - 20.0.4 because of the issue https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/23544.
