tempus
Access your music library on all your android devices
Tempo is an open-source and lightweight music client for Subsonic, designed and built natively for Android. It provides a seamless and intuitive music streaming experience, allowing you to access and play your Subsonic music library directly from your Android device.
Tempo does not rely on magic algorithms to decide what you should listen to. Instead, the interface is built around your listening history, randomness, and optionally integrates with services like Last.fm to personalize your music experience.
If you find Tempo useful, please consider starring the project on GitHub. It would mean a lot to me and help promote the app to a wider audience.
Use the Github version of the app for full Android Auto and Chromecast support.

This fork is my attempt to keep development moving forward and merge in PR’s that have been sitting for a while in the main repo. Thankful to @CappielloAntonio for the amazing app and hopefully we can continue to build on top of it. I will only be releasing on github and if I am not able to merge back to the main repo, I plan to rename the app to be able to publish it to fdroid and possibly google play? We will see.
Releases
Please note the two variants in the release assets include release/debug and 32/64 bit flavors.
app-tempo <- The github release with all the android auto/chromecast features
app-notquitemy* <- The f-droid release that goes without any of the google stuff. It was last released at 3.8.1 from the original repo. Since I don’t have access to that original repo, I am releasing the apk’s here on github.
As mentioned above, I am working towards a rebrand to get into app stores with a new name an icon.
Moved details to CHANGELOG.md
