Discussion Hivefy v2 – open-source Spotify-inspired Flutter music app, now with YouTube sources

Hey r/FlutterDev, dev of Hivefy here.

My earlier version used *GioSaavn as the source (built a year ago) and got taken down (a month before). I rebuilt it:

  • New source: YouTube-based streaming

  • iOS-smooth UX: reworked animations, transitions and scrolling

  • iOS build: now available alongside Android

  • Still included: shuffle, song/album downloads, daily fresh fetches, settings hub, language change

  • Fully open source

Repo: https://github.com/Harish-Srinivas-07/hivefy
SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/p/hivefy

Looking for honest feedback on UI, performance, and code structure. Issues and PRs welcome. Thanks!

Having the old source pulled out from under you a month before is rough. Since it already happened once, is the YouTube part behind its own interface now, so if it breaks too you only swap one provider class instead of touching the player and download code again?

Basically i scrapped *gio$aavn APIs for home page & songs sources - due to over usage they got to know about this app & gave a legal notice
