[Q] Need Help and Guidance On Making iOS-like Music Player - General Questions and Answers

Ok so, i'm completely new to app developing, and i know a small amount of coding (python, some java) and i got real tired of the Play Music app displaying bad quality album art, all the other apps on the market look bad or just have "too much" so to speak. So i thought why don't i just make my own app? i was thinking of making it look kind of like the ios 6/7 music player since it looks really nice and straight forward, but i don't know if i should start from scratch or use an open source music app and start from there? and if possible for someone to tell me if its gonna be a pain in the bottom. if you guys know of or have an app that resembles what i am looking for, it would be kind of you to provide it
I am on a Moto X running 4.4.2
any input is appreciated!
thanks!

if you have some knowledge from java.you need use a music player open resource and edit,reskin that you own.

Music making software

I am new to this forum so please forgive me if i make any mistakes.
My main interest is in music and am therefore looking for recording and music-making software.
I have looked at Syntrax, Griff, Mixtikl and Meteor but so far am not impressed with any of them so was wondering if anyone was in the process of developing something new. I am not a programmer myself but do have a few ideas which as far as I can tell, have not yet been implemented in any windows mobile 6 apps.
One idea is for a low latency multi-track recorder that can use either bluetooth or wifi as an audio input, thereby enabling your phone to become a true multi-track recording device. The idea doesn't stop there, so if anyone is interested in hearing what else I have to say, feel free to contact me and we can discuss what is possible. I can't code such things, so would be very willing to collaborate with someone who can.
Anyway, that's it for now.
Hope to hear a reply soon!
If your interrested
Peace this Meezzofficial! I make music myself, and I'm currently on my 6 song. But as far as music software goes....I would suggest Fruity Loop. Music Maker. and Accoustica. To Meezz personally these are heavy hitters. But Fruity Loops first and hi me back!
Meezz!!
I think i've gone beyond the programmes you've suggested by quite a long margin which is why I would like to see something a bit more serious for windows mobile.
Hello everybody.
I'm a musician too and I'm thinking about some kind of musical notepad using piano roll view so you can tap any of keys on the edge of the screen to hear the notes which will be helpfull to develop the melody by ear, and then put blocks on piano roll to be able to set rhythm values and play whole thing.
Maybe I could try to write something like it but I am not serious programmer so it might take me a lot od time and effort
I think that multi-track recording on PDA is not reliable idea because it need good cpu and some serious audio card with high signal-to-noise ratio.

[APP] Real player beta in now market

the real player handles video, music and photos...
I think it works very good for videos. the music player is too much like the default player and the photo browser pulls from a random folder rather than viewing all your picture folders.
anyways it is worth trying out
nooo, not real player on android!
Hope its not like the PC version at all.

lol i was thinking the same thing. All my real player did was freeze all the time on my PC
This response is to reinforce my distaste for RealPlayer, their business model, their apps, and their lack of openess since their earliest inception. I can only hope that Android people do not show any interest in RealPlayer and allow it to die through lack of support/interest by the community.
UI sucks, file management sucks, options(lack of) suck....this needs serious work. I have no idea why they would label this beta. It might be 'working', but I wouldn't want my name on it, that's for sure.
I dislike real too (have for at-least a decade), however since they have embraced android and took the time to create an app, I'm willing to give them a chance to redeem themselves.

An excellent app idea from an artistic noob

So i was thinking, what if someone made an app which displayed an android that dances very rhythmically to music played on a device, and differently to each song played. By this, i don't mean an android that simply swings it's hips, but does flips, twirls, claps, winks and jumps, all when necessary, and keeps to the rhythm and beat of the music; the dancing would be equal to the choreography used in music videos, and would not use some cheap "dancing skills". I would make this app myself, but i have no experience in writing software. If anyone would like to use this idea to develop, please let me know, as I have no problem in restricting its development because it's my idea (if there is such a thing) but i would like to know if it is being made is so I can download it myself! Thank you all for viewing my idea

Music Apps for Note 4?

Hello,
I will be getting the Note 4 soon which should be running kitkat on it, I'm hoping someone could recommend some good music apps to use on it, as one of the reasons I'm getting the note 4 is to play all the MP3s I have. I'll take recommends on both free and paid apps and not looking for anything fancy. Just something that shuffles all the music I'll load up on it.
Thanks for any help.
Why not use the stock one that comes with it? I have not had any issues with it.

I wasn't sure if there were better apps than the stock one. I haven't gotten a chance to test it out yet.
I personally very much like N7Player. Has a very good equalizer and plenty of options. (The UI might be a bit confusing at first for some.)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.n7mobile.nplayer (Free timed trial, after that you'll need to purchase the unlocker).
thanks for the recommend, I'll look into the app.
Hype machine
Rocketplayer
Flipbeats
hotspoters
PlayerPro
this is the hot player as i thought .
the one that i used is musixmatch
is a good app for music it comes with lyrics
Spotify music stream, musixmatch if you want floating lyrics..

I made a free, ad-free music player (open source)

Hey everyone!
I've been a lurker here, and I thought an app I created would be useful to some people on here.
My app is called Equator Music Player. It's is completely free and aims to use YouTube's large library and wrap it all into a music experience, not a video experience. It's super easy to find that one song with the card design, and the app just looks good. It's a premium experience at no cost. I personally made it after getting annoyed at Spotify ads and after realizing how inconvenient and disjointed YouTube's music experience was.
Here's the website: greatarcstudios.github.io/Equator-site/
Go ahead and check it out. I'd love some feed back. It's Windows only as of right now. Porting to Mac is a bit hard because it's tied into a lot of Windows binaries, which would require a large rewrite. I'm looking into making a Wine port though.
