  • I’ve been very picky about music players over the years. Basically for decades (well, maybe not that long) it was PowerAmp, ever since I had my HTC Hero on Android 1.5.

    Then when I got into the whole Open Source thing, I chose Musicolet and loved it, even donated to the author.

    Sadly, on my latest phone which seems to have incredibly strict memory/power settings, I had to stop using Musicolet. The phone would kill the player a sing or two into listening no matter what tricks I would use to try and stop it happening.

    Now I’m using Phocid which has never been killed while in use.

    And I keep all my music in finders, correctly named and tagged with MP3Tag and MusicBee because, you know, Autism. 😁



  • I used to use this app a lot but I found it started to work less and less. If you follow the right links, there is talk of a new version 3 of the app but I don’t know if that’s still being worked on.

    I find that redlib is more reliable for Reddit browsing. It does stop working occasionally but only for a few hours usually.
