Hey all,

I wanted to share an exciting lockdown-project that I've been working on called Tempo, an open-source and lightweight music client built specifically for Subsonic servers on Android.

Tempo puts you, the user, at the center of your music listening experience. With a sleek and intuitive interface, Tempo enhances your music journey based on your listening history, randomness, and even integrates with Last.fm for optional scrobbling support.

Key Features of Tempo:

  • Seamless integration with your Subsonic server.
  • Clean and user-friendly interface.
  • Stream music directly from your Subsonic server, with offline mode (actively being developed).
  • Create, edit, and manage playlists.
  • Gapless playback.
  • Rudimentary Chromecast support for streaming to compatible devices.
  • Optional Last.fm integration for scrobbling, if supported by your Subsonic server.
  • Activate transcoding on your server to optimize streaming with a transcoding profile.

Tempo is currently in the alpha phase of development, and as the sole developer behind the project, I'm actively working on improving the app. Your understanding and patience are greatly appreciated.

If you find Tempo useful, please consider supporting the project by starring it on GitHub. Your stars help promote the app to a wider audience and encourage further development.

Check out some screenshots of Tempo here. I'm excited to hear your thoughts and answer any questions you may have.

Let's build Tempo into the go-to music client for Subsonic on Android, together!

Cool project, thanks for sharing! I wish you were doing iOS, there's still not a great SubSonic client there.

Out of curiosity, how are you doing the mixes based on a song? Where do you get the list of similar songs from?

I tried it. It is smooth and appealing. Had a couple crash while browsing, but nothing really serious. I'd have to use it a few days for a legit feedback.

I'm missing an app that allows me to browse my music respecting my folder structure. I have a lot of vinyl rips poorly tagged... VLC does this but it is not practical at all.

Is this something easy to implement ?

Self hosting music is still on my torso list, I'll check this out later. BTW, what is Scrobbling?

I can recommend Navidrome as a server. I've had great experience with it.
