The tab bar measured the selected tab's full label before the trailing
controls, so a long translation or a large font scale squeezed the
settings gear and eventually removed it, and an indicator in the bar
made that happen sooner. Put the tabs in a weighted, horizontally
scrollable strip and keep the gear outside it, then scroll the selected
tab into view when the pager settles, in either layout direction.
Move the offline indicator out of the bar into a strip above the tabs
that names the mode and offers to go online. Offline mode limits every
list, and Home already swaps to downloaded content without saying why;
an icon in the bar could not explain that and competed for the same
width.
Album and artist context menus gain an Info dialog covering the plural
album artists, sort names and the play and download details the screens
do not show. Multiple artist links collapse into one ellipsised entry
that opens the artist chooser instead of listing each artist.
Sort lists can now prefer regular names over sort names, or only use
sort names for names without Latin letters. The new plain-name indexes
keep those orders out of a temp B-tree.
Also carry plural artists through the Media3 queue so Now Playing and
the mini player keep them, drop the album artist tap ripple, and show
the aggregate download progress in the tab bar where offline mode used
to sit.
Use album gain for items whose queue entry references an album and track gain for playlists, singles and other mixed contexts, including shuffled album queues. Carry the resolved context on each media item so the audio thread does not need to inspect the queue.
Keep a track moved within an album as an album range so it stays in album context; moves out of playlists, artists, genres and other mixed contexts remain pinned song entries.
Keep source line breaks, treat the triple-space paragraph separator some servers return as a blank line, justify wrapped bio lines, and append a bold Less control to the expanded bio.
Retry a failed download bio fetch instead of blacklisting the artist for
the rest of the process, and give a failed or offline refresh its own
message so it is not mistaken for a server with no biography.
Wait for the stored row before choosing the bio text, so a cached bio no
longer flashes the loading state on entry, and bound the page refresh so
a stalled response cannot leave the loading state up indefinitely.
Render an oversized first token instead of a blank collapsed line, and
check whether the whole remainder fits in one measurement.
Load the biography when the artist page is entered. A stored biography is
rendered immediately while it refreshes in the background; otherwise the
page starts with the loading message and falls back to the empty state.
Collapse a biography to two lines and append a bold More only when the
text does not fit. Tapping that line expands the biography, after which
the first lines keep clear of the star and overflow buttons and the rest
use the full width.
Move the star and more buttons from the meta line onto the first section
header so they sit below the hanging shuffle button again, and remove the
per-section counts now that the meta line carries the total.
Assert the combined meta line while loading, cover the downloaded partition
and the plural album/song credit branches, share the album-credit id query
with its plan test, and put the meta line through a translatable string.
Put the artist type and total album count on the single meta row beside the
star and more buttons, then list albums where the artist is an album artist
separately from albums where they only have a track credit. The hero shuffle
button and page-level actions stay where they were.
The split comes from an albumCredit flag on the shared credit rows, so the
online and downloaded album lists are partitioned by the same rule and the
two sections still sum to the stored album count.
The preamp prompt promised extra level unconditionally, but a track whose gain has no peak is capped at unity. Say so in the supporting text so the setting does not overpromise for Opus/R128 libraries.
OpenSubsonic servers send plural artists/albumArtists refs and can omit the
singular artistId when an album or song has more than one artist. Parse and
store the ordered refs on the item and in indexed album_artists/song_artists
tables, so artist pages, shuffles, downloads and the artist filters include
every credited artist.
Album and now playing artist taps open a chooser when several artists are
credited; context menus get one artist row per artist.
A screen timeout mid-album is a common complaint for a music player: the
phone lies on a table while art or lyrics are on screen and the display
sleeps. Add a Settings toggle under Playback, off by default, that holds
the screen awake while now playing is open. The flag rides on the now
playing overlay through Compose's keepScreenOn modifier, and since the
overlay is only composed while expanded, collapsing it releases the flag
without any window-flag lifecycle handling.

Review follow-ups.
- The snap clamped nothing, so an out-of-range stored value would show a
decibel label the slider cannot reach: clamps now live in the snap
rather than duplicated in the step.
- The screenshot test only rendered the dialog without asserting it
opened, so deleting the row's click would have left it passing while
the capture showed the plain list. It now requires the dialog's Reset.
- "Adjust level on top of the ReplayGain" was not grammatical, and the
mode prompt claimed the server normalises when it only supplies the
tags.
- Drop a test assertion that restated the production formula.
- Call it ReplayGain, which is the name of the standard, in the row, the
prompt and the preamp prompt.
- Give the slider room under the prompt instead of sitting against it.
- Put Reset in the button row, where it lines up with Cancel and Done,
rather than above them, and centre the decibel value that is left in
the content.
- Add a screenshot test that scrolls to the section and opens the dialog,
which also composes the new rows; the existing screenshot only captures
the top of the list, so it never rendered them.
The slider alone is awkward for the two things people actually do with a
preamp: zero it, and nudge it by a known amount.
- Minus and plus buttons flank the slider, stepping one grid notch (0.5
dB) and disabling at the ends.
- A Reset button sits under it, beside the current value, disabled when
the value is already zero.
- Both go through the same snapping the slider does, so a button cannot
land off the grid.
Final slice: the screen that drives the mode and preamp preferences the
playback side already reads. Until now `setReplayGainMode` and
`setReplayGainPreampDb` had no production caller, so Off and the preamp
were unreachable.
- `SettingsViewModel` exposes both preferences and writes them back.
- The Playback section gains a "Replay gain" row opening an Off / Track /
Album choice, and a "Preamp" row opening a slider across the +-15 dB
range in 0.5 dB steps.
- `ReplayGainMode` is ordered Off, Track, Album so the choice list reads
that way; the stored value is the name, so the order is not persisted
and the default is still Track.
- The labels live in their own file so the signed decibel formatting can
be tested, as `formatTrackTime` does.
While the app is in the foreground a timer checks the auto-sync setting and
syncs when due (default every 24h; the interval is selectable from 15 minutes
to 24 hours). It stops when the app is backgrounded. "Sync automatically"
is one setting: Off, Wi-Fi only (default) or Always.
A running sync is shown by a silent, dismissible notification and a small
spinner on the library tab bar's settings button. A manual pull-to-refresh
still holds the pull spinner; only an automatic sync does not. The library
and Home sync actions no-op while a sync is running, and SyncManager
coalesces a request that arrives mid-run into a single follow-up, so repeated
pull-to-refresh cannot pile up runs while adding a server still syncs it.
The time of the last sync attempt is recorded, so a failing server is retried
once per interval rather than every poll. The sync consumer and the auto-sync
loop both survive an unexpected failure instead of silently disabling syncing
for the rest of the process.
The poll sleeps for the interval (capped at 15 minutes) instead of a fixed
minute, the network mode is collected once rather than re-registering a
connectivity callback each poll, and the decision is logged at DEBUG (visible
with Verbose logging) rather than writing to the log file every poll.
Playback now logs each track transition and end at info (title/artist/album/source/reason), sync logs per-entity counts and pruned rows, and the Subsonic client logs server error codes and the token-auth fallback. Add a Verbose logging setting that drops the file level to debug at runtime (persisted) so a support session can capture full detail without flooding normal release logs.
Align the Settings label with the old Flutter wording and port the 19 existing settingsAboutShareLogs translations. The subtitle was new text with no prior translation, so drop it rather than ship an untranslated string.
Never let a log-write or export failure reach the uncaught handler: wrap the async writer and crash path, synchronize export with rotation, and tolerate vanished files. Redact the Logcat stack-trace copy, stop leaking rows=0 on writes, shut down the previous writer on re-init, and drop unused API. Strengthen tests for the batched write path, rotation count and throwable redaction.
Capture logs to rotating app-private files with Subsonic credential and URL basic-auth redaction, mirror to Logcat, and capture uncaught crashes. Log slow SQL (>100ms), SQL errors, migrations and DB lifecycle via a decorating SQLiteDriver. Add a Send logs row in Settings that zips the logs and opens the share sheet through a FileProvider.
A clean build now emits no warnings of its own, and Kotlin
`allWarningsAsErrors` plus lint `warningsAsErrors` stop new ones from
sneaking back in.
- Kotlin: give SearchFilter's @StringRes parameter an explicit @param:
target; use safe calls for File.parentFile in StringResourcesTest.
- Packaging: keep debug symbols for the prebuilt .so files that have no
symbol table, which is what the "unable to strip" warning was about.
- Lint: move `modifier` to the first optional parameter across the Compose
screens, use mutableIntStateOf for int state, read Resources via
LocalResources, use the KTX Bitmap.get/String.toUri, drop the unused
ic_action_name and ic_stat_name bitmaps and the dead -v24 qualifier on
the notification vector, fix the pt-BR "album" accents and the unused
Vietnamese/Thai plural quantities, and suppress the intentional
cleartext/user-certificate, backup, exported-service and
plural-candidate findings. Disable the version-update nags, which the
dependency-update process owns.
The AboutLibraries plugin still resolves the variant classpaths during
configuration, so AGP keeps warning about that one; upstream in
mikepenz/AboutLibraries#1369.
A track artist without an artists row had no name on the artist page, so
the header and the placeholder letter were blank. Derive the name from the
songs that credit them, and label the page 'Album artist' when they lead an
album or 'Artist' when they are only credited on tracks. The hero art keeps
the letter placeholder when there is no artist image.
Drop the "API" from the server compatibility wording, and lowercase the brand
in the title, description, old changelog and the app name to match the logo.
Add FTS5-backed search across songs, albums, artists and playlists,
reachable from a search FAB on the Home tab. Terms of three characters
or more run through the trigram indices; shorter terms fall back to the
instr scan, matching the per-tab filters. Results are grouped by type
and route into detail screens or song playback.
- AddSourceViewModel resolves SubsonicException.uiMessage too, so malformed/
HTTP/truncated responses show localized text instead of the raw parser
message; add a regression test.
- StringResourcesTest now requires an 'other' quantity in every plural and
asserts exact placeholder (index and conversion) equality, both of which
could previously pass while crashing getQuantityString at runtime.
- Map the pre-enum song_downloads.error sentences back to their DownloadError
so existing failed rows keep their specific message.
- Localize the media-session star/unstar button label.
- Remove 12 unreferenced resources (queue name, filter year, sync_failed, and
the unused codec_* strings; codec labels stay in AudioEncoding).
- Make buildTree's fallback arguments required; only tests used the defaults.
Route user-facing messages produced below the UI through a typed UiMessage
(string-resource id plus format args) instead of pre-built English strings:
showMessage, SyncStatus.Failed, playback errors and download toasts now
resolve in the current locale at the UI edge. Subsonic and page-cap
exceptions carry a UiMessage alongside their developer message, and the
download progress notification is formatted from resources.
Internal invariants and log tags stay plain strings.
Move every exposed UI string into res/values/strings.xml (+ plurals) and
read it via stringResource/pluralStringResource or getString, with 27
locale files carried over from the Flutter app's Weblate translations.
Only strings whose English is unchanged reuse an old translation; reworded
ones get fresh keys.
Persisted download failures become a DownloadError enum mapped to string
resources (stored by name, unknown legacy values degrade to Failed), the
per-app locale config is generated by AGP, and StringResourcesTest guards
locale keys and placeholders.
The platform posts one notification per download, so queueing an album buries
the UI in them and they can be swiped away. Hiding them (VISIBILITY_HIDDEN,
which needs DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION) and posting one aggregated
notification instead gives a single ongoing entry with the overall progress and
a Cancel action that stops everything in flight.
It is refreshed from the download state the poller already maintains, so it
tracks the engine without extra queries, and it is tied to this process: if we
are killed the downloads continue with no notification, which is the trade for
not writing a service.
replace the flutter project with a gradle/compose android app:
- nix flake dev shell (jdk21, android sdk 35, build-tools 37, gradle)
- material3 app with a placeholder screen
- roborazzi/robolectric screenshot tests with one golden
- carry over the existing launcher/notification assets
