About this app

Your music collection reigns supreme and you want to listen to it without unwanted repetition. Say hello to EwePlay. EwePlay is a music player designed to work with all the MP3 files that you've been painstakingly collecting and tagging for years. Its clean layout and customizable shuffle gets you to listening faster. EwePlay learns your preferences as you go so you can spend less time managing lists and more time immersed in your personal treasure trove of music. Set the Mood Ring to suit your individual tastes. Discover listening made better with EwePlay.

The interface for EwePlay is fixed like that old stereo you used to have, back before your phone dominated your life. On the top you have controls and on the bottom is your list of music. If you know what you want to play, scroll to it and tap it. If you tap more than one item, they will be queued up to play one after the other; a little number will pop up on the right indicating its position. Press and hold the PLAY button to fast-scroll through the list.

To help you find music try tapping the SHOW button which has an icon of music notes. This switches between various views of your collection including a list of artists and albums. Long press an album (press and hold) to add the whole thing to your play queue. Or long press a song to see a list of related ones which share the same album and/or artist.

EwePlay keeps score as you pick, play, and skip songs. These points are displayed to the right of each song. The more points a song has, the more likely it is to show up in a shuffle. Both the score and the last time you played a song are saved to your MOOD RING, represented by the circle to the left of the PLAY button. Tap the MOOD RING to switch it between eight variants and isolate your listening preferences. It's easier than it sounds; EwePlay is doing the remembering while you're doing the rocking out.

When you're not sure what you want to hear, try tapping the shuffle icon to enable SHUFFLE ALL and then press PLAY. Over time you'll notice that all of your music gets played because EwePlay keeps track of WHEN you listened to it and prioritizes accordingly. You couldn't forget about that song, could Ewe? Clever Sheep.

Are your eyelids getting heavy? Tap the SLEEP button with the clock icon to turn on a sleep timer or press and hold it to set a custom time in 15 minute increments.
