SimpMusic - a awesome music app (github.com)

My apologies if this seems like an advertisement, I am simply a very grateful user of this project who cannot donate at this time but at least wants to share it with others.

SimpMusic is a Youtube Music front-end similar to ViMusic (or its fork, RiMusic), as such it is not a local music player, but it takes music from Youtube and plays it in an interface similar to Spotify but with its differences.

To give a brief introduction of the app, I summarized the functions that I find most interesting:

  • The app has the ability to download music but usually if you listen to any song it is saved as a cache, so you don't need to download it.

  • The app allows you to see and listen to all the songs in the album of the song you are listening to, and sometimes even includes history and descriptions of that album.

  • The app provides lyrics for most songs using MusicMatch, which are also stored on your device if you have already listened to the song.

  • The app has Sponsorblock support so if your song has filler parts, you can remove them using it.

  • The metadata in the app is generally correct with the song you listen to, contrary to what has happened to me when downloading music from Youtube and then playing it on your local player.

Unfortunately the app has no support for PC (or Linux), but if you are interested in something similar there is Moosync which serves almost the same purpose.
