Fantastic little music widget, best I've found so far, no issues and I love the fact you can make it transparent. 1 feature in would like to see tho, is the option to be able to change the song info etc to stand out more as it goes transparent too. You can see it, however, I personally would benefit from the option to make it stand out more.

Super uni widget. Unfortunately my main music app "USB audio player"(added as custom app in settings) does not have 100% works the play button on any mode. The play button opens app, not starts play song. My phone is Mate 20 pro with nova launcher.

Great concept and widget. Highly recommend. I'd just like to see 1) ability for multiple widgets e.g. one that is only for YouTube music, a different one for just Google Podcasts and 2) ability to set default image when nothing is playing rather than continue displaying the last played.

Honestly, works amazingly well for what it aims to do. One suggestion is to move the artist name to another line instead of having it in the same line as song name/podcast name. Other than that, cannot be any happier to buy the full version.

Doesn't recognise audiobook player. Pulsar music player. Play pause does not work. No way to remove custom player. Planning to buy to check additional features. Price changed after adding custom players. Not buying now.

It's perfect, but can you add an option to start the music player automatically, when the device is turned on? It will be great in the car, when my multimedia turns on, the Spotify to start automatically :)

I am a single developer located in Austria. I programmed this app because I couldn't find any other widget that did what I wanted and also looked nice. Because I liked the widget so much, I decided to put some additional work into it and make it available to everyone via PlayStore. I have no interest in your personal data at all. This results in a pretty simple privacy policy,which is stated below and in the app (About-section).


As with all of my apps: Privacy matters!
This app does not collect data of any kind. No usage statistics, no user tracking, no ad profiles, nothing.

New features

Fixes small corner radius on Android 11 and lower
Fixes transparent background when no album art is available
