My background, in a nutshell: I graduated with a marketing degree from a school in upstate NY, was working in Manhattan at an ad agency. My US visa expired, so I moved back to India, where I was doing similar marketing strategy stuff in Mumbai, both at agencies and in-house at organizations. Brief detour in the middle where I co-founded a (now defunct) startup which was trying to build an Expedia-like portal for medical tourism. Now I'm here, figuring out what's next.
If there's enough interest in this, and I have the time to do it, I'd be happy to support it! Apple Music and Spotify would probably be first though. TBH I'd rather build in FLAC support, iPhones have plenty of storage these days.
- I really like the idea of one button for "everything else"
- Once you start using the app, I've found that you don't tend to search often, because you just intuitively where things are placed
- It's more fun to browse through your collection and find something you'd forgotten about instead of searching for whatever is "top of mind" at the moment
Don't mean to be a pushy-car-salesman-types, but I think you should take it for a test drive – your experience might surprise you. One of my explicit goals in designing the app was to get you OUT of the app ASAP, since I don't give a damn about "engagement". Today, the stock iOS music app seems too fiddly to me...
Apple Music support is absolutely on the roadmap, and so is iPad support!
If you haven't already, do send me an email. TestFlight is Apple's platform for doing beta testing, it's super straightforward.
