SubStreamer

Subsonic client with a great feature set including offline music support for free! I use it everyday!

Wish I could keep using it but AirPlay to Apple TV just doesn't work. Starts a blank video stream and won't go to the next song in the background

So I went through all the apps that had Subsonic streaming capability. And THIS is the one I wanted to use the most because the UI looks amazing and better than any other. It’s very organized and had some neat customizations. I think it’s far and wide the best interface. The drawback? It doesn’t work. It synced with Astiga. It sees everything flawlessly it just doesn’t play music. I adjusted all the settings. I cleared the cache. I redownloaded. It simply won’t play music for me. And unfortunately no matter how pretty your app is, if it can’t play music, you’re in trouble. Astiga shows that the app attempted to play just no music and the progress bar never moves. But man if the developer can put some love on this and make it function…this is the one. I put two stars on it just for the sake of hope.

I like that shared playlists are visible for other users as well Only request would be to make the UI show more album art like in the main screen (a lot of undyed space there) or the album/artist views (only shows rows)

No drama, no ads, and no tracking. Great lightweight app for your own self-hosted music on navidrome. Gives you an option of specifying an internal and external IP and which of the two two prioritize, which is huge to keep you from switching server IPs constantly when you’re at home/outside.

When playing a song, I would get random crashes. Enough that I stopped using this app

Best app by far for Navidrome clients I’ve found for iOS. There’s are some minor tweaks that could be made that would make user experience better. 1.) When you are playing a song with the album cover pulled up with play/fast forward options, when you go to pull down the menu to see the song list behind it, you have to grab from the top of the screen or else it doesn’t pull down and minimize. This is a very minor thing but is quite annoying especially I would imagine so if you have a bigger phone as you have to reach super far to swipe down from the top to minimize it to see your music again. I would say this is the lowest having fruit to immediately improve user experience. 2.) On the side bar menu, there is no option for “songs” to just see all songs in your library. You can only view by album or artist. It would be nice to pull up all songs from A-Z and pick from there a song to play vs drilling into an artist or album to play one. 3.) In offline mode, albums and songs are separated. It would be nice to just see all of your downloaded music with filters to see al download songs, all downloaded artists and all downloaded albums. Basically if you downloaded an album, those songs won’t appear under the songs section. It should all just pool into one bucket of “downloaded music” with filters for artists, albums or just see all downloaded songs. If these improvements were made alone this app would be near perfect with such a better daily user experience. Keep up the great work this project is awesome!!! 👏🏼👏🏼

If Substreamer had CarPlay support, it would knock it out of the park!! It is great that cached files are separate from downloaded files allowing you to delete cache am still retain downloaded items on phone.

Would be good to have song list view, not just album/artist Also for whatever reason.. even though the screenshot says it has radio support.. it doesn’t show on my phone connected to navidrome; and my navidrome server has a few radio stations added. Not sure why

The interface of this app is very intuitive, I like it very much, and hope to add support for Simplified Chinese in the future!
