Release notes

v2.0.0 — 2026-09-20

A major release: offline, sharing, room-filling playback, and reach beyond the phone.

Playlists & sharing

  • Import from a Spotify link — paste a public playlist URL; every track is matched on YouTube and saved as a local playlist (progress + "matched N/N").
  • Share playlists — share a playlist as a link / QR code, and scan a code to open a shared playlist.
  • Custom playlist covers, delete playlists.

Offline

  • Spotify-style caching — tracks you play are cached to disk (LRU, capped) and replay offline automatically, no action needed.
  • Downloads — explicit offline downloads with a background download service + progress notification; a Downloads page with a live wavy progress bar; download whole albums/playlists.
  • Offline-aware launch: no internet → opens to your library; Home falls back to downloads/recent/liked.

Playback

  • True overlapping crossfade — two tracks blend via a second player (not just a fade); tunable duration; gapless when off.
  • Equalizer & audio effects — multi-band EQ, bass boost, virtualizer, loudness, skip-silence, playback speed.
  • Sleep timer, high-bitrate audio, and a look-ahead buffer for seamless transitions.

Discovery

  • Taste-based recommendation shelves built from history, likes, and followed artists; real trending.
  • Follow artists, play history (recently played), and a Listening Stats screen.

Beyond the phone

  • Android Auto (browse + play), Wear OS transport, a home-screen widget, and a Quick Settings tile.
  • Deep links & "Open with / Share to MusicSM" for YouTube links; voice "play … on MusicSM".

UI

  • Animated Now Playing: breathing album art, flowing multi-hue seek bar, frosted hue play/pause button, glassy album-tinted volume, smooth live-lyrics transitions.
  • Genre tiles with representative art; shimmer skeletons; slide navigation.

Notes

  • Database migrated through v4 (playlists cover, liked artists, play history, downloads); existing library preserved.
  • Still not Play-shippable — GPLv3 NewPipeExtractor + YouTube ToS; personal/educational use.
