Warning:
Version ( 0.13.1-2 from 30.08.2026 ) renamed package name. It was done to make this app accepted in harbour store. Updating this app, will install second application with the same name.

Disclaimer: Since version 0.8.2 ( included ), I've been using llm to help me write this application. I am not vibe coding it, but I am using it to help me write parts of code faster. If time allows, I'll make a proper rewrite in the future.

Changelog:
## 0.14.0
Added:
- Changelog system.
- A way to download albums.
- Possibly proper softing of songs in albums via trackID / cdId. Needs testing.
- Graceful shutdown: on exit the app reports the current song as listened and stops downloads, with a 3 second cap and a toggle in playback settings.
- Playback setting for the "song listened" signal: never, when the song starts, or when the song finishes (default). Graceful shutdown only reports the song when the signal is set to "when the song finishes".
- Downloads page, opened from the settings pull down menu: shows the running download and the whole queue, cancels a single song or all downloads at once.
- Auto selecting recently used server on start with toggle in settings
Modified:
- Redesigned settings panel, cleaned its code.
- List and album thumbnails are now downloaded downscaled instead of at full quality. Player, song details and cover art keep the original image.
- The song cache is now stored per account, so two users of the same server no longer share one library cache.
- The simple home page no longer shows "Downloading ..." and "Song downloaded" popups; the progress line at the bottom of the list and the new Downloads page cover it.

It is able to connect to my subsonic server and fetch list of starred songs, but then clicking play button does nothing.
I am able to play the song from android app so the server works

Hi. Thanks for reporting. Due to lack of time, I had to give up on this app for the time being. I am not sure if I'll be able to fix it anytime soon.
If you don't mind using older version, you can try to download older version https://git.kiszczyc.pl/jakub/SubMusic/releases, eg. 0.7 or 0.6. I use only starred songs and nothing else, so this feature should work.
Could you please write your architecture here ? Might be useful for future fixes. I only have aarch64 devices.

I'll try, Im on an Xperia 10 III.
It might be that it just doesn't follow redirects? My subsonic server replies with a redirect to a url hosted on S3 for songs

I never thought about that, but if application itself is working, this might be limitation of media player itself ? I would need to check logs. I'll note that down and try to take a look in some free time. Sorry for inconvenience.
