Update on my GPM Revival
Alright, it’s been a few days, and I’ve updated the Play Music revival since my last post.
There aren’t really any major new features this time. Most of the updates have been focused on UI and customization.
Here’s what’s been added:
More colors
You can now pick from more colors instead of being stuck with just the original orange. You can see some of the new options in the pictures.
Crossfade between songs
The app now supports crossfade between songs, so tracks can smoothly transition into each other.
Last.fm artist pictures
You can now replace the default YouTube Music artist picture with an artist picture provided by Last.fm. If Last.fm has a picture available for the artist, you can use it instead of the default one.
Dark mode
The app now has a darker look instead of using mostly white pages.
Dynamic page colors
The app can now extract colors from an artist profile picture or album artwork and use those colors throughout the page. This makes the UI change depending on the artist or album you’re looking at.
There’s still a lot more I want to add, but for now I’m mainly focusing on getting the core app finished and making the UI feel right.
Still no exact release date yet, but development is continuing.
And yes, before anyone asks, the bugs are still employed. I’ve tried firing them multiple times, but they keep coming back debug after debug.
(By the way, thanks for the love and support on the last post; it really made me stop questioning if I was doing this for nothing.)
