Overview

SocyMusic

SocyMusic is an open-source Android music player written entirely in Java. It's objectives are to provide top-quality music to everyone for free without any ads. It will also offer a great way to exchange music from device to device all by staying completely offline.

We will never charge you anything. SocyMusic has been made by the community for the community.
We will never download any of your data. You don't need any login and we don't need any of your data to work. The app on it's own only searches for songs and plays them for you.
The app will always remain offline, this is one of our core concepts!

If you find it interesting you might wanna check out our Website where you will find a lot more information.

Adding the theme changing settings

We actually only have one color right now. If you take a look at the themes.xml file or the colors.xml files, there is only one color which is something like red (code: #FF362E). Other colors we have are white and black. This means that if we set a variable there, we could actually set the color code programmatically and therefore change the appearance of the app. BUT before anyone does anything about it, I would like to talk about something. I will do it in a discussion and link it here once it's published. I don't think it's an issue and therefore doesn't belong here. The discussion: #96

Shuffle and queue buttons mess up the song playing
Describe the bug Pressing the shuffle button and show queue button a few times seems to make the app show the wrong song playing.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Click on a song to play

Press the shuffle button

Press the queue button

Repeat 2 and 3 until title shows wrong song

Expected behavior Shuffling the queue should not affect the song playing, only the rest of the queue.

Playlists still need to be tested and updated
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. In almost every music player there is the ability to create playlists. I understand that's it not something we really need, but if you have a lot of songs it can be realkly hard to organize them without playlists.

Describe the solution you'd like There are actually multiple ways to manage this. We could use online databases, but thats against our goal of keeping the app 100% offline. Another way could be to use .m3u files, but they are unreliable when songs get moved or deleted. The last, but deprecated option would be to use the Mediastore. I already started to use the .m3u files, but somehow Android denies the permission to write such files.

Additional context Here are a couple links that might or might not be useful:

Scrolling PlayerFragment sheet vertically is awkward
Describe the bug Due to the newly added viewpager in PlayerFragment, the bottom sheet that the whole fragment is on is not scrolling very well. If you start scrolling vertically where the ViewPager is, it doesn't register. ViewPagers and BottomSheets don't work well together, so it seems this is a common problem.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Open app

Click on song to open PlayerFragment

Try to duck down the bottomsheet that pops up by dragging from the center (where the album art and song title go)

Notice scrolling doesn't work until you reach the bottom where the ViewPager ends

We should have a setting for media library path/paths

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Yes. One of the biggest things that annoyed me with the app is that it shows me ALL mp3 and wav files on my device, most of which are not songs. I want it to stop showing me podcasts, voice recordings, ads and other media files I don't even know about from my device.

Describe the solution you'd like I want there to be a setting that let's me configure where the app looks for songs. I added a blank button in my latest commit (pull request #79) but I'm conflicted on how this should work exactly. There are three ways to go about this that I can think of:

1- Media folders: Let the user select which directories on their device the app should look for songs on. To implement this we'd probably need to use a directory picker or make one on our own. 2- Blacklist: Let the user select which directories not to include in the search, a so called blacklist. It'd probably work the same way as 1. 3- Root folder: Let the user select a single root directory to look for music on. All songs within it will be included, everything else won't be. Here we may not need to use a directory chooser. We could use an intent with ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE then parse its path somehow. I tried to get this to work without parsing its path and it's not possible. It returns a "tree path" which is not a real path you can directly get a File object from. We'd have to use a library to convert that into a real path somehow, and I'm not sure it's worth it...

So I think option 1 is the best to go with. Option 3 is a little restrictive and option 2 might be cumbersome for a user with lots of non-music media files. I want to try to implement option 1 without a library (so we can have more control over how it looks and acts) but I want to hear from you first. What do you think?

Enabling the SD card in settings crashes SocyMusic

My music all lives on the SD card. When I go to SocyMusic Settings and enable searching the SD card for music, the app hangs, then crashes.

I have almost 6,000 songs. Everything is organized in directories: SD Music Artist 1 Album 1 Song 1 Song 2 Album 2

I assume that's how everyone stores their music, but maybe not.

RTD is just a template right now!

RTD(Readthedocs) is a great way to provide information and support to others. It functions like a website and builds on its own on pull-request.

RTD will be used to create tutorials on how to install the app, contribute to the project, add new designs and edit translations. It will also be used to inform people about frequently asked questiosn, features and issues. This is all going to be organized in sections to create a better overview for everyone.

I had to merge the pull request containing the docs already or else the setup would not have worked, but if you click on the link right now you will notice that the stuff written there make no sense. Please be patient as I slowly write the website.

PlayerFragment not responsive

I noticed that on my friend's phone the Song time numbers weren't displayed correctly. They were squeezed into a tiny space to make room for the seek bar. Right now the PlayerFragment is a Linearlayout, but maybe it would be better to have it in a ConstraintLayout for better responsiveness and supportiveness on more phones.

Reworks interface to make PlayerFragment host-able in multiple places.

For now it's hosted in MainActivity and PlaylistActivity, both of which were made into subclass of the newly created abstract class PlayerFragmentHost. This should make it easier in the future to have the player anywhere we need it.

v1.2.1-beta(Sep 4, 2021)
The SocyMusic gained popularity! With more and new users coming I think we will need to do releases a bit more often to keep users updated on the latest addition and remove nasty bugs. I just wanted to remind everyone that if you want the ultimate super latest release of the app you can download the APK directly from the latest commit. Click on the last executed action and at the bottom of the page, you should find an apk. Please note that this is also the best and fastest way to encounter bugs, so please use it with caution.

What's new:

Debug mode to save the logs locally on your device and help us in troubleshooting eventual issues

Playlist functionality has been improved

Faster song loading through SQLite database storage

Album functionality has been added -> NOT FULLY IMPLEMENTED

Searching functionality has been added -> NOT FULLY IMPLEMENTED

Support for Android 12 has been added

v1.2.0(Aug 2, 2021)
This has been a long-awaited release now. Even if the app is not at the state I would like it to be, this release was really necessary to set a checkpoint and refresh the latest stable release which is v1.1 and at this point in time completely outdated. A lot of stuff has changed and this time also visually. But before I go into that, I would like to thank everyone who helped me out with this project. It's my first collaboration so far and I am proud of how it's turning out. Special thanks go to @squivix which contributed a lot to this project, I think he almost contributed more than myself. And special thanks also go to @SilviaJack28 for making those awesome backgrounds you can see in the app. Maybe she will do some more in the future, who knows ;D

What's new?

Settings option almost completely implemented

New themes and colors to chose from

You can now choose the folder from where the songs are loaded from

It is possible to swipe left and right to change songs

By long-clicking on the dedicated buttons the song skips 10 seconds forwards or back

There were also other new additions and bug fixes, but you can look at it yourself by downloading the app for free.

This doesn't mean that all bugs are solved since there might always be hidden issues we weren't able to find.

What's new?

Improved app stability

Bottom navbar

Faster loading of the app

Bug fixes:

Now you are able to get back to the player without starting a new song
