FAQ

Will this be made for iOS?

❌ - No, currently this project is not planned to be released for iOS, this is because Apple requires a Mac machine, and multiple payments I am not willing to do. If you want to build it yourself, you may, but I can not guarantee it will work.

Will this be put on the Google Play Store?

❔ - Possibly, depending on how this project turns out, it is possible it could be put on the Play Store, but this will not happen until the project is mostly finished. The project is planned to be completed by the end of 2025.

Does this application work with DeaDBeeF?

✔️ - Yes! Although at the moment it has only been tested with Foobar2000, if you have the BeefWeb component for DeaDBeeF, this app should work for it as well.

Note

Because this has not been tested, it may not work without additional configuration.

Can I modify this app?

✔️ - Absolutely! This app is fully free to use and open-sourced; you are more than welcome to fork the source code and make any modifications you wish! Please read the LICENSE before modifying this project

Is this application safe?

✔️ - Yes, this application itself is intended to be safe; however, there could be exploits I am unaware of. If you discover an exploit or security vulnerability, please create a report in the GitHub here: https://github.com/pchapman-uat/AstroTune/security/advisories. With the newest update of Google Play Protect you can now Scan the application, if Google Play Protect says that the application is harmful please create an issue.

Why do I have to enable "Install from Unknown Sources"?

❕ - Due to this app not being published on the Google Play Store at the moment, to install the application, you need to allow your phone to install applications from an unknown source, in this case, GitHub / Files Manager. You can simply disable this feature once it is installed.

Note

Note: If this application is published to the Google Play Store, you will no longer need to enable this setting.

Why do I have to disable Auto Blocker?

❕ - Auto Blocker by default blocks installing from unknown sources, as well as USB traffic. Because of this, it needs to be disabled before installing. Once the application has been installed, you can reenable this setting.

Note

If this application is published to the Google Play Store, you will no longer need to disable this setting.
