## Known problems
The application is using `androidx.media3`, which is unstable. Expect random crashes or buggy notification behaviours. Hopefully, they will be fixed within the next alpha release.
## Features
- Play any non-age-restricted song/video from YouTube Music
- Background playback
- Cache audio chunks for offline playback
- Search for songs, albums, artists and videos
- Display songs lyrics
- Local playlist management
- Reorder songs in playlist or queue
- Light/Dark theme
- ...
## TODO
- **Improve UI/UX** (help needed)
- Settings page
- Support YouTube playlists (and other stuff to improve features parity)
- Download songs (not sure about this)
- Play local songs (not sure about this, too)
- Translation
## Installation
You can download the latest apk [here](https://github.com/vfsfitvnm/ViMusic/releases), **the unique distribution channel**.
After installing, I recommend executing the following ADB command to neutralize some animation lags you may experience in cold starts:
```
adb shell cmd package compile -r bg-dexopt it.vfsfitvnm.vimusic
```
