Shuttle Music Player
Probably the
best-looking music app on Android, Shuttle has a good line-up of
features, including a six-band equalizer, and automatic downloads for
artwork and lyrics. Shuttle also uses Last.fm scrobbling, which will work out which songs you listen to the most over time, and help tailor playlists to your liking.
If you splash out US$1.75 / £1.10 for the paid version, you get more themes, folder browsing, and even Chromecast support.
Musixmatch
Musixmatch offers something a little
different. As well as a sleek, elegant interface for listening to your
music, it also comes with the FloatingLyrics widget, which syncs lyrics
to music that you listen to, and lets you read lyrics as you're
listening to songs on your default music player, Spotify, YouTube, and
various other music apps.
You can even type lyrics into the widget
and it'll find the matching song on your device. It's this unique
widget that makes Musixmatch a real winner.
jetAudio Music Player
This is one of the better music
players on Android, mainly because of its strong host of tweaks and
effects you can add when listening to your music. Plugins include the
AM3D Audio Enhancer and Bongiovi DPS, which enhances sound processing in
a way that true audio enthusiasts will appreciate.
Pay £3.29 /
US$4.99 for the Plus version, and you get a whole load of widgets,
viewing options, pitch shifting and much more, making this possibly the
most tinkery music player out there.
MixZing
This is an all-round media player that
handles video and music with equal aplomb. On the music side of things,
it has a feature that recognizes your music – even without tags – and
matches it up with artwork and lyrics.
This ensures that there
will be few blank spaces or generic musical notes when you're browsing
your library and admiring the album covers. There is also Mood Player,
which automatically creates playlists based on how you tell the app
you're feeling, and when you're online, you get further listening
recommendations based on your favorite tunes.
Poweramp
As one of the most popular music players for Android, Poweramp is
a safe bet for your musical needs. Album art and lyrics can be
integrated into the player, and it provides an impressive 10-band
equalizer to help tweak your sound output. You can even save your EQ
presets, allowing you to set up specific ones for specific headphones.
The
only downside is that Poweramp displays the directory names of the
songs and albums in your library when you are browsing, which
looks untidy.
PlayerPro Music Player
Also hovering around the top of the Android music player app chart is PlayerPro Music Player.
Like Poweramp, lyrics and album art can be downloaded and displayed
while playing music. There are also different skins, themes and
extensions, which you can use with this player to help customize your
experience.
Song tags can be edited directly from the app and it even has scrobbling support for sites such as Last.fm
so that you can sync your listening habits. PlayerPro comes with a
variety of options for lock screen widgets that provide you with quick
access to the music player, and its features are rounded off with smart
playlists, which adapt to your listening habits.
n7player Music Player
This app offers something a
little different; a tag cloud, where artists and song names are
displayed on your screen, in varying sizes, depending on how much you
listen to them. It looks great, and comes with its own EQ with haptic
feedback. Creative, with some interesting use of multi-touch, n7player
is definitely worth checking out.
Rocket Player
Rocket Player is
a feature-rich underdog that competes against some of the bigger names
and offers various downloadable templates and themes. While the free
version gives you a pretty standard batch of options, the £2.49 /
US$3.99 Premium version also offers left/right balance control, preamp,
and more audio formats.
An extensive search option lets you search
across different tags, playlists and composers, and the whole thing
feels intuitive and easy to use thanks to a recent Material Design-style
update.
Google Play Music
Google Play Music
offers access to a huge online catalog of music. You can stream it
if you have a subscription, but the app can also play the music stored
in your smartphone library. Google Play Music syncs with your Google
account, so your playlists and songs are accessible across multiple
devices.
Google Play Music also offers customized recommendations
based on your current listening habits and music library, and comes with
the Android 5.0 Lollipop Material Design interface.
