So what's the best music player for android? I've only been using Google play music and I feel the app is sluggish and the file size is too big? Any recommendations for a lightweight clean player?

Poweramp

>>57860773
PowerAmp (paid) or Vanilla Music (free)

anything else isn't worth it.

VLC, go on, do it faggot.

Phonograph is the fucking best

Ok thanks bros I'll check it out. I guess we can just have a general app thread then. What do you guys think of swipe as a Facebook replacement. It's pretty small and doesn't drain battery like the official app. What other 2nd party app is better than the official?
>>
>>57860887
Lite
also consult the wiki

Reading now. I guess I should have checked it out before making the thread. I heard much about poweramp before but it's hard to tell what's a meme and what people would scary oh recommend. Cheers friend.

I have spotify

>>57860773
I'd say Phonograph. I only use that on Android. The UI is also pretty similar to the default music app on my iPad so transitioning between them is no problem at all.

Just downloaded it because I'm too broke to get paid version of power amp. Seems great and looks clean. Storage is much smaller than Google play music. Thanks for the recommendation.

>>57861132

Any reason why you have not gotten the Google Rewards app and get store credit for a couple of your time every now and then?

In my opinion, Blackplayer is the best one m8. It's fully customizable, looks very clean, it's free and it's size ain't big.

Here's the link:

I've been using AIMP the past week and my only issue is it lacks a library so I can't just "play only this artist, genre, etc".

Otherwise it's fine since I'm 99% shuffling all my music anyway.

Sorta related, my lg g3 periodically pauses my music no matter what app I use, but I only if it's in my pocket. I have it upright in a clamp in my truck and it doesn't have any issues, but if it's laying flat or in my pocket it'll freeze until I turn the screen on. I'm assuming there's some pocket-hibernate mode, but I can't figure out how to turn it off. Any ideas?

Poweramp if you want features

I don't care bout feauture, I just wanna blast some SICK NOISE

so I prefer PHONOGRAPH

This is a masterpiece of material design, a neverending pleasure to use and to see, a marvelous nifty little app

----> PHONOGRAPH
>>
>>57863999
I like phonograph but the equalizer has presets and you can't set your own EQ values.

Poweramp with Hi-res output.
>>
>>57864318
I don't know how to use an equalizer.

The sound is fine with PHONOGRAPH

However do you think learning to use it would enhance my music experience?

SO

Poweramp OR Blackplayer?

I have poweramp, and it's pretty good, full of features, but the UI is outdated as fuck, and the themes available are mostly shit.

Blackplayer is on par, feature-wise?
>>
>>57865050
PHONOGRAPH
>>
>>57860773
Icon pack?

>>57865237

>>
>>57860773
Black player

BlackPlayer EX. lightweight, customisable, user friendly

>>57860773
Pulsar

>>57860773
I like Eleven but it doesn't seem to work on Touchwiz for some reason
>>
>>57860773
What skin/distro (icons, wallpaper, ...) is that?
>>
>>57865237
not OP but I think it's Acorn
>>
I use Vanilla Music
>>
I use BlackPlayer.

It's clean, it looks good, downloads album and artist art, is very customizable, works with last.fm and, most importantly, HAS NO ADS.

Sony Music (formerly Walkman)
>>
>>57860788
I'm not going to use it much but it's way better than Google music or any stock.
Anyway It's on sale 0.1€ right now. Works at least in Poland.
>>
Custom free as in freedom firmware on a dedicated music player of your choice.

My phone actually has dedicated hardware for playing mp3 files which means I could listen to music like 40 hours straight without recharging and yet I'm not willing to waste battery charge (and storage space) on music. So I carry a rockboxed iPod Classic wherever I go.
>>
Google music. You can just stream your library you don't need to even keep it on your phone
>>
Anyone uses Rocket Player?

I was looking at the it's price and it costs like $6.99 in USA, and R$0,99 in Huezil (that's about $0.30).
>>
>>57866262
I do. It's the only player I've found that actually reads Album Artist and not just Artist tags. Beyond that it's pretty nice as well.
>>
>>57866299
It seems that Album Artist support is being added to Poweramp v3 too:

http://forum.powerampapp.com/index.php?/topic/9515-library-list-by-album-artist/
>>
>>57866496
And it only took them three and a half fucking years to do.

>>
>>57866534
Yep, this new version of Poweramp is taking forever to be released. That's completely bullshit.

It's a great app, but sometimes it seems that the developer is just cashing on it's fame.
This 'let's release updates all at once and let the stable app stay outdated' is kinda crap. I understand this mentality for some software, but for an android music player?

The UI is outdated as fuck too. What saves it is that the default theme is acceptable and the widgets are amazing.
>>
is there any way to make poweramp look not like shit? this ui is fucking awful
>>
poweramp feels like shit, so i'm giving foobar2000 a try. is it possible to add components to the android version? i just want a last.fm scrobbler

I used power amp for a long time but it is outdated. Use blackplayer. It's just superior in terms of UI customization. Power amp was necessary when it came out but blackplayer really just does everything it does, barring maybe a few EQ features.
>>
>>57866299
Just tried Rocket here and although it looks kinda good, it feels clunky. The animations stutters (opening the now playing list for example).

Poweramp feels a lot more responsive.

I just tried BlackPlayer too, and it looks pretty good.
But, it doesn't recognize the year of the album on the tags, so it doesn't list the albums on the correct release order. Poweramp does this no problems. Tried on the same artist/albums.

If BlackPlayer goes on sale I may buy it, but for now I think I'll just keep using Poweramp.

I hope MaxMP gets his head out of his ass and releases the new version soon, with a decent UI.
>>
>>57867230
Oh and another problem of BlackPlayer.
It doesn't let me choose what folders I want in my Library, like Poweramp and Rocket does.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I couldn't find this.

It just scans everything. Fucking crap approach if you ask me, not nice having random audios from other apps on my music player.
>>
>>57867230
>The animations stutters (opening the now playing list for example).
All I can say is that I haven't experienced this on my phone.
>>
>>57867252

Yes you can, it's in the metadata settings
>>
>>57860773
do any applications work with google music subscriptions?
>>
>>57867740
Welp, just found the 'Blacklisting' option, but it's not available on the free version.

Help me with something else, there's anyway to make the notification go away if the music is paused? Or you have to swipe it away everytime?
>>
i really think /g needs a sidebar or some kind of box on the homepage that has links to all approved programs for things like music players, text editors, anti-virus etc so we can stop having pointless threads like this. Soon there will be another thread about what the best image viewer on windows is. And the same recommendations will show up.

anyone know of a decent ui aiff player? Android doesn't provide support for aiff's natively but i use them for muh quality and the fact that they have good tagging facility (e.g. embed artwork) which wavs don't have to my knowledge. I would use flacs for everything but i do some djing and only the newer cdj models can play flacs whereas most all of them play aiffs so I keep my whole collection in aiff

>>57864548
I'm not talking about phonograph needing an equalizer, it's to improve the sound of headphones, to reduce/increase bass, treble and mids.

I've been using PlayerPro for the last 6 years, it's ran quite well, but is there any reason no one on /g/ has so much as mentioned it so far? Have I been cucking myself with a shit tier application?
