Hey c/selfhosted,

Third month since initial release, third update post. For those not familiar with it, Tempo is an open-source and lightweight music client for Subsonic, designed and built natively for Android. The core aim is to provide a stable and appealing alternative to existing Subsonic clients and perhaps convince some hesitant users to take the leap into the magical selfhosted world of music.

Tempo is available for free on GitHub and IzzyDroid, with an upcoming release on F-Droid.

If you find value in Tempo, your support is invaluable. You can show your appreciation by giving the project a star on GitHub or considering a small contribution.

Now, let's dive into what's new this month.

New Features:

  • Material You Dynamic Themes
  • Download requests for unplayed podcast episodes
  • Filter for undownloaded podcast episodes
  • Support adding songs as favorites while offline
  • External Storage for offline file downloads
  • Track download with codec and bitrate Definition
  • Folder download
  • Language picker in App Settings with Automatic Per-App Language Support
  • Added german localization

Bug Fixes:

  • Resolved scrobbling issue with last track
  • Fixed issue opening podcast channels from catalog view
  • Handled Null Track Numbers with Set Placeholder
  • Manually encoded username for URI Streaming and CoverArt fetching
  • Numerous other small bugfixes

Other Changes:

  • Added Downloaded File Title to Notification
  • Improved download indexing
  • Started Preparations for F-Droid Release
  • Aligned SurfaceColors with recommended Material You colors
  • Updated status bar and music player background colors
  • Dependencies update
  • Code cleanup

Future plans:

  • The elephant in the room – Android Auto support. It's the great absentee right now and remains the sole open issue on GitHub.

If you have doubts, perplexities, if you have any ideas or have come across any bugs, feel free to reach out. Even just to say "hello". Tempo was born from a tough period, the pandemic, and it provided purpose during those seemingly endless days. Seeing that this effort is repaid by your kind words makes me think that those dark times for me are not totally to be forgotten.

Lastly, I want to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who has provided feedback, contributed to the code, or offered a donation. As a gesture of gratitude, I'm planning to create a README section on GitHub listing the names of contributors. If you'd like to be part of it, let me know. For donors who prefer to remain anonymous, your wishes will be respected.
