YouTube music player app
YMusic is a free music application for Android developed by k.dev. It serves as a media player for locally stored audio files and also allows streaming of videos from YouTube. With YMusic, users can listen to audio streams even when outside of the app. It also functions as a capable music player for stored media, offering various playback features and configuration options.
YMusic addresses a long-requested feature for YouTube users - background playback. This app allows users to listen to their favorite YouTube videos podcast-style even when the app is not in the foreground. Additionally, it provides a discover section where users can see the latest and trending videos from YouTube. Users can change regions and enable closed captions to access content from different countries.
While YMusic offers a solution to the background playback issue, it could benefit from a UI redesign and further performance optimizations. The app consumes a significant amount of system resources, which may affect its performance on lower-powered devices.
Overall, YMusic is a useful app for those who want to enjoy YouTube videos as audio streams and have a capable music player for their locally stored media. It may have some areas for improvement, but it is worth checking out.
