Hi all,
I'm the developer of Shuttle Music Player (formerly AMP).
Shuttle is a lightweight, simple & elegant music player for Android. It's based on the AOSP Music Player, with inspiration from the previous Google Play and the current Google Now.
Shuttle includes a built in equalizer, gapless playback (4.0+), queue support playlists, highly customizable widgets, sleep timer, scrobbling, dashclock support and more.
Shuttle has been on the Play Store for almost 6 months now, and is nearing 50.000 downloads!

Hey man, I love your app. Is the only player that works correctly on my phone :victory:.
Do you think there's a possibility to add ReplayGain support? I have some music that makes use of it and I can't enjoy them correctly because lack of that function.
I think it is Apple app when I see the shuttle

Thanks for the compliments, glad you're enjoying it. Replay gain is beyond the scope of Shuttle for now.. Since I use the Android API's for media playback, and there is no inherent support for replay gain.. So, it's not planned at this stage, sorry.

What a pity... Still the best player, though.
Today installed Shuttle+. Like it very much,nice UI.Only issue I have : While playing music, the EQ doesn't open and the app force closes.
After noticing this ,in CWM recovery I wiped cache,wiped Dalvik cache and fixed permissions on my leaked 4.2.2 Samsung S3 ROM. Problem persists.Can open EQ when there's no music playing,works fine then.
Imo EQ should be editable when playing music,as in Google Play Music.
Any thoughts and/or advice on this ?
Necro-post! Hopefully the dev is still around?
I'm switching from Google Play Music to Shuttle due to the fact that I don't like the way GPM behaves in 4.4.4 when I swipe it from the Recent Tasks (it stops playback, which is mind-boggling nonsense for me).
Is there any way to Import the playlists I have on GPM into Shuttle?
It would be nice to have the apk available as an attachment on the first post or a link directly to apk, instead of playstore.

I didn't know about his community. I knew the app was actively developed, but when I wondered if he was still around I mostly meant I was wondering if he was around here on XDA forums. Apparently he isn't though.
Hey there, I want to start off by saying I love your app - truly a marvel of development. I plan on buying Shuttle+, but before I do I have a couple of questions:
1. What exactly does it mean when it says I can edit "some" tags? I seem to have an issue where the files I have added to my phone (OnePlus 2) that are of the same album do not go together, but instead create 2 or 3 separate albums. I do not have this issue with my iPod, and believe it is a tagging issue but I can't find any differences in the files themselves. Also will I be able to add or change artwork?
2. I have this issue where I am seeing double. But when I go to settings > apps > all, there is no "media store", but rather "media storage". Are these the same thing? Again, I am using OnePlus 2.
Thanks
Hi !! Just got Shuttle+ from the play store. I was looking for a nice alternative to HTC stock player (discontinued on the HTC10) and I found your feature-packed app wonderful ! Built in EQ is a great plus. Keep up the good work, glad to contribute by getting the pro version !
One feature I really liked from another app I tried (don't remember the name) is the possibility to blur the album cover on the lockscreen. Makes for a beautiful look while listening to music !
Thanks again
It looks like there is no way to control music currently?
Until recently I have been using the Smart Extras Music app and Media Button control apps to control my music player (Google Music). Now that I have updated to KitKat, the Smart Extras Music app crashes.
Sony should be ashamed. This is one of the main uses of the damn watch. :cyclops:
I am developer by trade, so I will use Sony's API to create an app to do it, but it is infuriating that I have to!
This sort of stuff is the reason I sold my Xperia S and bought a Nexus!
I just picked up a sw2 and have the n5, willing to test for you if need be

A possible solution could be to find another working music player smart extension on the Google Play.
In my case the Sony music player extension no longer works after the latest update, so I bought this one and it works well with my S4 stock music player and it's also fast responding:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.disrapptive.smart.music
If you want to try, consider that if you'll not be satisfied with it you have 15 minutes to eventually ask for a reimbursement.
Re: No way to control music
Sony should create a application that could help in stoping and playing music from the Smartwatch
If you have poweramp player installed, you can use it's plugin. It supports SW1 and SW2.
And what about default app for SW1 - it works with both default player and poweramp. Don't know about SW2.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sonyericsson.extras.liveware.extension.music
Check this default app out.
Re: No ways to control music
Yes I did not find any way to control to music over smartwatch..
Works fine for me on my N4 with 4.4.2 in ART mode and Google Music. It sometimes takes a few attempts but then works fine. I just don't see any album art on the SW2.
Make sure you don't have some sort of task killer and that you didn't Greenify the Sony apps.
A Redditor created a new extension to control music. His one shows album art and also supports the new "low power" mode: http://www.reddit.com/r/smartwatch/comments/1ty29q/smartwatch_2_music_control

I get:
Parse error
There was a problem while parsing the package.
Nexus 4, Android 4.3. I guess perhaps the guy has written it only for 4.4 for now?
I had a chance to have a closer look. It is a permission error:
Code:
permission Denial: reading com.android.providers.media.MediaProvider uri
I don't have the full text of the log cat entry, as stupid me didn't save it before factory reset my phone.
Anyway, it turns out the Sony music control app is getting a permission denied error under KitKat when it attempts to retrieve album art.
The work around is to root your device. I hadn't gotten around to rooting my N4 until now. My N4 is now rooted, and it all works fine.
It is a pretty piss poor effort by Sony that they haven't fixed this. On Facebook their excuse was that "their phones don't run KitKat yet". Big deal Sony, you market you watches to other brands of phone too. This is exactly the sort of attitude that caused me to sell my Xperia S and get a Nexus.

My Nexus 5 is rooted and yet the Sony extension has never worked well, in fact it's easily the worse part of the watch. I have had no problems with anything else, aside from the music app. I wonder how did you get it to work with root? Do you need to give it permission elsewhere?
The above app from the Reddit thread works nicely, very simple but, album art is sort of there and it only plays/pauses but, it WORKS which is the main thing.

Hi there,
I don't like to use the stock music player. I want to use Spotify only.
If the music is playing and the device is locked, I push the power button und get the lock screen, with the music controls in the upper area. If I hit "pause", the fun begins: Spotify stops playing and the stock music app starts playing. This is just ridiculous.
I tried to set Spotify as default music player, but that doesn't change that behaviour. I installed Nova Launcher, but I cannot "disable" the stock apps as I have no root.
Are there any possibilities to disable the stock music app without root?

Seems not possible without root i have the same Problem with Google play music. Stock music begins to play...
Think positively that the default player comes with many free music.
But its not possible to control the music through lock screen. Thats a big gap
I am having this same issue. Stock lock screen seems to have media controls permanently locked to stock music player. The most infuriating thing is the artwork and everything is displayed as you would expect, but as soon as you touch a media control it activates stock music app.
What a pain in the arse bug Hauwei. how did you screw that up!?!

Have you tried changing the default music app? Settings -> Manage Apps -> Default app settings -> Music
Doesn't help me with Pocket Casts, but if Spotify shows up here you might have a solution.

You can't change the default music app to Spotify. In addition, I've already tried changing it to something other than the default music app but it still does't work.
It seems like the only way to do it is to disable the stock music app - but I don't have root
Damn, you're right. Just tried it with PowerAmp with the same result. The lock screen is even worse, overlaying the Huawei buttons (that don't work) over the PowerAmp lock screen controls. The smart cover controls serve only to stop the music, and once paused you have to unlock to play again.
This may be what pushes me to root...

Even with root you won't be able to solve the stock lockscreen music button mess ... Huawei did a lot right with the Mate 7 and with EMUI, but they also have a lot of silly bugs that can drive you crazy ...

Thanks for that. I do agree - there is a lot in EMUI that I would normally root to implement - and this is sadly something we will have to live with, for now. Thankfully Pocket Casts monitors the buttons on my Nokia Monster headphones, and that's how I pause/unpause anyway.
Does anyone know of a forum we can voice our concerns on? Perhaps a feedback mechanism that Huawei monitors...
UPDATE: I found a solution for this dilemma. You'll need root though. The music player controls in the lockscreen can actually be used to control ANY currently running music app and even show title and album cover. HOWEVER, you'll have to UNINSTALL the Huawei Music app from the system folder, which is what you need root for. Once the Huawei Music app is gone (remember: UNINSTALLED, NOT frozen), the fixed link between the lockscreen controls and the stock music player are gone.
Sweet. Gives me a good reason to root. Now to go find that thread...
[EDIT]
Damn, looks like my firmware has been updated beyond what works for a live root solution.

BL unlocking is a bit quirky, but you can always revert back to the stock BL after flashing CWM. Rooting once you have unlocked your BL is easy-peasy.
You can disable the Music app out right i do this via adb shell using the following command.
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.mediacenter

This can be done without root as it only uninstalls from the user not the phone so factory reset will get the app back.
Make sure you reboot after to make it take effect.
Does anyone have this working on any other player except Google Play Music?
I simply can't get it to work with GoneMAD or Poweramp, however Google Play Music and Apollo (CM's music player) manages to show it just fine. It worked on CM11S on both Poweramp and GoneMAD so it should probably work in CM12S too. I have obviously enabled the AudioFX equalizer in both GoneMAD and Poweramp and tried out different ways to approach it like disabling all other equalizers, trying to turn one thing off and enabling the other and AudioFX itself works and the album art is shown in the background, but the lockscreen visualizer does not show in these applications. Completely stock except root, so no modifications done.
Anyone have any tricks to get this working or can at least confirm this is a problem?

Really? Because I just tried Spotify and it doesn't do it there either. Now, I don't subscribe to the service so I dunno if that has anything to do with it, but it certainly does not show the visualizer at the lockscreen except the album art.
I also tried wiping the device, formatting system, data, cache, Dalvik and installing CM12 from scratch with only GoneMAD and Spotify installed and neither of them did it then either.
i dont have it working either with spotify - was previously on cm11s
I just tried with Poweramp, and it works just fine on my phone... But I don't have all the other music playing apps, just this one... Maybe they're interfering with one another?

Did not work unfortunately.
I've tried everything at this point. I even wiped the entire device (even internal storage) and installed everything completely stock and it still doesn't work so this is extremely strange.
My apologies, it was working on cm11 but not 12. I kind of like it and would love to get it working on cm12 if anybody knows how

Same problem here. Loved the feature on cm11. I thought they took it away on cm12 and was extremely dissapointed. I was randomly playing a song on google play and I saw the visualizer.
I realized its poweramp that is the problem. I dont know how to fix it, tried reinstalling the app but no luckl.
I had this problem too but when i use my bluetooth headphone, the equalizer show up on the lockscreen. When i switch back to my wired headphone, the equalizer goes missing.
The same happens for me. I have the latest CM OTA update as of time of the post.
I have only ES Explorer Media Player, I disabled Google Music and AudioFX but not force closed the latter, enabled the option in Settings-->Lockscreen, but the visualization shows only when linked to loudspeaker with Bluetooth
Hi,
The app is taking over spotify when I try to listen to music with Bluetooth in my car. I asked assistance in spotify forum but they could not help.
The app is built in as people know and there is not even disabling option. How can I get rid off it?
Thanks in advance

Thank you for the respond. Yes i tried, but there isnt any other available option. Writing with my honor 6 so excuse some typos. Also my main language is not english.
Let me explain this better:
I use spotify with bluetooth to listen to music through my car stereo, which is pioneer mvh 360bt. Everything worked; i could see the song details etc in the stereo display screen and next or previous buttons worked with stereo buttons. Making it very easy to change a song while driving. Suddenly i could no longer see song details and buttons to change songs stopped working also. No idea what may cause it. I did not change or install anything suspicious, except updates on apps obviously. What i discovered is the built in music app, which started to show song details in stereo screen and took over spotify. Basicly the whole controlling is in the music app now. I tried to figure out how can i get spotify back as it used to be, no luck yet. I deleted all songs related to music app and so on. Now i can play songs through spotify, but i cant change songs with stereo buttons and the screen show no title or no name. I think the stereo and bluetooth still connects to music app while leaving spotify outside.
What i tried to do:
Reseted phone to factory settings
Tried two different apps: bluetooth connect and play app, autoaudio bluetooth help. These programs did not change anything.
Messed with phone and stereo settings..
I think i will also reset the stereo settings just to make sure.. But my girlfriends Sony xperia m2 aqua functions as it should, so the problem must be in my phone, not in stereo.
TLDR: How can i get rid off built in music app and make my spotify to function again with my "honor 6 - bluetooth - pioneer mvh 360bt" so i can change songs with stereo buttons and see the song in stereo display screen?
Spotify said that they cant help me with the issue so i hope i could get some help here.
Feel free to ask more questions and details. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Yes. I tried to install Spotify again, many times. I also tried to install previous versions of spotify with no luck. Though might be a problem that I didn't possibly delete "old files" causing the issue still be there.
The music software, I have absolutely no idea what is it and how can I find previous updates. The software is called "Musiikki", which is "Music" in englishand the version number is v7.0.21.
Btw, I found more threads about similar issue with other Honor 6 users, but also some other phone models having them. Seems like they appeared after installing newest or second newest version of Spotify, but it's weird that I can't even fix the issue anymore by reinstalling older version of Spotify.
What really makes me think is this place where I can change default music application. I can only see there this music software and google play music, but Spotify will not be there, not even with older version.
Tomorrow I am going to reset my phone still one more time and install Spotify version where everything worked. Meanwhile I will also reset my car stereo. If I can't get this to work, I am out of ideas..
Thanks in advance.
