The OpenSubsonic project aims to extend and improve the classic Subsonic APIs in various ways: by adding new endpoints, clarifying existing APIs, or extending functionality. All while maintaining backward compatibility with the old APIs. Understanding whether the server supports the API, requesting the list of supported extensions and acting accordingly is the first step to integrating the OpenSubsonic API. Initial work was done with synchronized lyrics using an endpoint that does not exist in the classic version of the API but was introduced by OpenSubsonic.

Yes, it’s been on my roadmap for a while. I also created a pull request several months ago to enter the repo but it was never accepted (it’s also my fault because I didn’t follow the verification process properly).

Hi and thank you for your appreciation! There is a buymeacoffee page for donations. Thanks again for the support!

Hello and thank you all for your appreciation! For anyone who asks, there is a buymeacoffee page for donations. It’s really a pleasure to see my work recognized, especially when I’ve been practically stuck on Android Auto support for months… For the future, the plans are to fix some bugs already reported to me, add support for the OpenSubsonic API, and clean up the interface (giving the user the ability to show or hide elements as they wish). Fewer server calls should lighten up and speed up the app.

Also a special thanks to Google which with its lack of guides for its libraries makes development a real thrill!

For the curious who want to see the app without downloading it, here are some screenshots: https://imgur.com/a/i3zsqlG

For those who would like to take a look at the app before even downloading it, here is a short tour inside the app: https://imgur.com/a/fTTgjpz

For self hosted music lovers, I would like to introduce you to Tempo, an open source and lightweight music client for Subsonic, designed and built natively for Android.
