Is there a app that gives notification of the Google Music free song of the day?
Similar to how this app:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.apperhand.amazon.appstore.free.app.of.the.day
Notifies of the free Amazon App Store free app of the day?

Yes Please! ...and how about all the other free songs on Google Play Music?
I second this inquery and move to inform of possible solutions for google music free song of the day/free song collection/antenna free song , anyone?
free song of the day is listed on the main page:
https://play.google.com/store/music?hl=en
it is down a little bit after the 'best deals' section. On the free song of the day is a link for 'more free music':
https://play.google.com/store/music...theme_2011_10_29?feature=free-song-of-the-day
Their free song of the day, I guess actually came from blog Magnifier:
http://magnifier.blogspot.com/
which hosted features for people to find/discover new music, and of course a free song of the day.
apparently the blog not only had a free song of the day, but had a segment called "Antenna" with free samplers, which seemed to be monthly 'editor picks', would be a good way to describe what it was before.... usually of a new release OR an independent / lesser known band complete with reviews....
http://magnifier.blogspot.com/search/label/Antenna
Antenna, as with the 'song of the day' also merged into google play music, and is now stating "ANTENNA SAMPLER: Google Play's monthly free sampler is back with more new hip-hop, indie, electronic, country and Latin pop." which seems to be a selection of several artists, ~10 tracks, with an opening few paragraphs talking about that month's selection... it is found (took me a while) at the bottom of the main store page, on the left below the graphic that says "Free Music" (not the same link... which is misleading), the link is the actual text that says "ANTENNA": https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2010140_ant_antenna_march
it looks like it is actually a 'collection' which there are other collections to the right of "free music".
The original Magnifier blog also had "Scanner", which provided free samples of different GENRES of music:
http://magnifier.blogspot.com/search/label/Scanner
In the Google Music store, I am not sure where to find this at all - however I do believe it is the same as when you first create an account (or maybe it was when first logging in, or downloading the 'music manager' desktop program) and it offered to add free music based on the genres you selected..... IF anyone knows where to find the free music GENRE sections within Google Play Music, please let me know!!
Also, The original Magnifier blog contained video interviews with various artists... new releases, new artists, up and coming, independent, etc... However, the video features usually contained a selection of free songs as well:
http://magnifier.blogspot.com/search/label/Video Feature
The link to the google play store works:
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_videofeature_20100c2_vid_dr_dog
However, I cannot figure out where this 'video features' section is and how to get to them from the Google Play site... again, if you know - please let me know
And last, there was a 'free songs archive', a banner on the side of the page... I believe this is the same as the ''more free music" link on the song of the day:
https://play.google.com/store/music...011_10_29?feature=free-song-of-the-day#?t=W10.
free songs url from the magnifier banner link:
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_theme_2011_10_29
However, it does not provide the entire 'archive' to view but it seems to change once a week?? I'm not sure....
SOOOOO There are SEVERAL placed to get free music from Google Play Music store.... some of them I can't even find anymore, and don't know exactly how they name the 'collections' as it isn't a generic link, but changes with each new weekly/monthly 'free samplers'....
For example:
Searching "google play music magnifier" came up with this result, an old video feature:
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_videofeature_2011_10_26?hl=en
Searching "google play music antenna" came up with several different old antenna collections:
most recent -
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2010140_ant_antenna_march
older results -
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2012_01_12?hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/music...iew_antenna_2010019_ant_antenna_october?hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/music...ew_antenna_20100d5_ant_antenna_december?hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2012_01_11
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_20100fb_ant_jan_antenna?hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2010121_ant_feb_antenna?hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2012_01_13?hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2012_01_13?hl=en
These seem more like the original blog's "Antenna" in that it is about a single album by an artist, with a paragraph of info about the artist/band:
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2011_10_27?hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/series_overview_antenna_2012_01_10?hl=en
Either these (a specific artist on Antenna) or the "Video Features" with free songs to download -I think- are related to all the albums titled:
"(Artist Name): Live at Google" by (Artist) or simply "Live @ Google" by (Artist)
Which so far seem to all be free... Also, all the album 'cover art' for these albums also have a similar grey bar that says "[email protected]" as if it is the album name, regardless of which of the two album titles above is used.
Other than being able to make out the year (2012) and dates on some of these links, and then not using the year anymore on newer ones but a 2010xx link of some sort, I can't seem to make sense of how to check regularly other than going through the google music play store and hoping the Antenna section is there and hoping I can find out where to find the Video Features section...
Of course all the links have "/music/collections/series_overview_".... in the url, however I have seen nothing to indicate searching collections or finding links to 'series'.... Again, if you know something I've missed - please let me know!!!
Hopefully there is a program / app or something that can inform (or possibly automate the 'add'?), for at least the free song of the day? As that seems to be one of the many sources of free music on Google Play Music that would be easy to locate and has a 'feature=free song of the day' URL that likely(?) stays the same...
thanks for any help guys! :fingers-crossed:

Can you please shorten that text, its confusing, please tell us what you want instead of 9000 lines of text :/

I know it's been a while since you asked, but maybe some else will stumble across this thread looking for it.
I have written a free app just for this. It is called "Free Song of the Day" in the Play Store. Search for FSOTD or download it here;
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.taggahertz.freesongoftheday
I would really appreciate any feedback. I have just released it and I am sure there could be some improvements. I will even be willing to send you a premium version of the app for free if you PM me and are willing to test it out.
Also, if anyone has any good ideas on how to promote Android apps to get more downloads, I'd be more than interested. Thanks.

Looks interesting but not available in the U.K. I would also suggest you create your own thread to publicize your app.

Thanks Bro!!
Enjoy the app!
Hi the app sounds cool. I can't seem to find it on the market though when searching "muz".

We here at ArcDatum are trying to get some feedback on our new applications Wiki Lecturer Free and Wiki Lecturer Pro. It basically combines Wikipedia and Music player features to create your own personal educational audio book containing all the world's knowledge. Android is supported for now and we need to test its viability as a useful app before porting it to other platforms.
Some features:
Reads your article to you using Text-to-Speech
Lets you build play queues (just like playlists in music players)
Has image zoom capability (something we found that wiki apps don't have; basically it lets you click any image link and it'll grab the full size version for you)
Supports many languages both for reading and in Text-to-Speech
Many more
Do note that some of the greatest features (like playing in the background and the widget) are only available in the Pro version for obvious reasons.
Free version:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arcdatum.wikilecturer&feature=search_result
Pro version:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arcdatum.wikilecturerPro&feature=search_result
Note: You can just look up "Wiki Lecturer" in the Play store and you'll find us. In other languages like French it might be "Wiki Professeur" etc. We will update this post with the actual play links when XDA lets us.
You can find our app logo in the attachments.
Please do remember that our app is in it's early stages and that we are looking to improve it according to user concerns. We are not necessarily looking for a full review at this time but if you feel that the app is ready for one, do let us know.
If you have any questions, comments, or ideas as to how we can further our marketing efforts you can contact us at [email protected]

Today I reinstalled the CM rom on my phone and while I was upgrading my apps, a notification appeared on my phone making me upgrade Google Play Services.
I understand that it is a necessary app and all of that, but did you realized about the high punctuation it has in the Play Store? If you read the opinions, on the most useful section, they talk all about the same: "I can't upgrade this app because it is so big and now I can't use my phone" and all those people give between 1 and 3 stars, but the app has 3.7.
So I changed the section to "Newest first" and started reading opinions. There were a lot of then with comments like "P" or "nice" and 5 stars. If you also look the profile of those people who comment on that app, you can find profiles with any information, just a 5 stars punctuation on that app. And nothing more.
A screenshot of one of this profiles can be found here: nicovell3.es/playServices.png
I suppose these profiles are generated by Google workers to elevate the punctuation of that app, and I understand that they want it to have a good image to make people trust in downloading that app but... I'm not sure that's the correct way.
What I want to ask is: if Google controls in that way the Play Store and we continue trusting that company, what will prevent it from making us believe what they want?
I post this here because I think this must concern all the app developers which produce apps to post them in the Play Store...
Hi everyone
Less than a month ago I challenged myself to build and launch an app in one week and I developed Hummi.nz, an app that allows you to record yourself while humming a song and test the other users to see if they guess the songs.
https://medium.com/@razvanilin/challenged-myself-to-build-and-launch-an-app-in-a-week-cc6b44731a49
I week after I launched, I posted about it on HN and I was amazed to have created a useful discussion around it. The post even reached #1 in the show section and #9 on the main page. Later on, I also launched on Product Hunt and managed to get featured for most of the day on the main page accumulating almost 80 upvotes.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16692899
This leads me to believe that the concept of the app is good, but I'm really trying to execute it right at the moment. If anyone has the chance to try it out, I would be grateful if you share your feedback here.
I'll be here to reply to everyone so feel free to ask or share anything. Cheers!

Sing (hum) your favourite songs and send it to other people to guess
No words allowed while singing!
You can browse a list of hums recorded by other people and try to guess the songs
You can climb the leaderboard by guessing songs
You get points when people like your hum as well
Hummi.nz is an app that allows you to record yourself while humming a song and then send this to everybody that uses the app. They will then have to guess what song it is. The perfect place where you can sing your heart out and share with others.
You can also listen to other people humming and try to guess the song yourself.
Got a tune stuck in your head and can't put a name on it? Hum it with Hummi.nz and other people will help you out instantly. The power of people can be greater than automated apps like Shazam and SoundHound when it comes to humming.

Hello everyone!
I am Sicknote and this is my first real Android App.
On my commute to work I always listen to music and everyday I see people on my train to do the same. Sometimes I can't choose a song to play and get so curious as to what that cool person on the train might be listening to, so I developed an application that would allow me to do just that.
ListenApp connects to the users Spotify app and shares what the user is listening to anonymously. Other ListenApp users can see what song is being listened to and at what position in the song the person is at, they can choose to listen together from the same point in the song.
Everything is anonymous.
Users can search for music globaly (default setting) or 100 meters / 50 meters. But it's advised to keep the global search on until there are far more users.

This is my first real personal project that I am passionate about and I'm very excited to share it. I hope people enjoy it as much as I enjoyed working on it because the only way it an succeed is if there are many users. Either way I'm happy to have finished it.

Nice idea will give it a try.
