Unpopular Music Player vs Vanilla Music
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Unpopular Music Player
Instead of "Artists" and "Songs" in pop(ular) music, this program uses the metadata composer and grouping to organise the music in works (e.g. a symphony) consisting of movements (parts of this work). Further, no text is truncated, i.e. long movement names or performer lists will take as much space on the screen as they need to be visible in full length. The program can work together with the Classical Music Tagger and the Classical Music Scanner.
Vanilla Music
Music player with a simple interface similar to the stock music player. Supports browsing by folder, queueing, shake-to-skip and more. Supports the same audio formats as the stock music player since the system media APIs are used. This is a fork of https://f-droid.org/packages/org.kreed.vanilla which is no longer being developed by its author. We keep that in the repo as it supports Android versions below 4.0.3.
