Hello community, today I want to present to you the work done on Tempo in recent months. This new version brings improvements to Android Auto, a first use of the OpenSubsonic API, synchronized song lyrics and the ability to customize the home screen.

As usual, Tempo is free and open source, by the community and for the community. You can follow the development on Github and you can download it from F-Droid as well.

If you appreciate the work put into Tempo, remember that you can star the project on Github or make a donation! It’s not much but it’s useful to help the project grow and give visibility to the app.

    That’s great to hear! Just make sure you have all the lyrics set up in Jellyfin before you start the road trip, Finamp only fetches from the server and not from any other websites :)

    There will probably come some changes to the lyrics interaction, I’m also not a fan of the current setup. Toggling between lyrics or the cover seems doable.

    Customizations for the lyrics, like hiding the timestamp and centering, is definitely planned. Maybe I can even fit it into the next update!

    And yes, I’m the current maintainer of Finamp, since the original creator is currently busy with uni. They’re still around though, and there also are some awesome contributors helping out with a ton of stuff!

    If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out. I’ll try to reply in less than two days xD

        Hmm, my goal with the app is to not require an external documentation, I’d like to make it straight-forward enough to use as it is.

        The only thing we really need would be developer documentation, but I’m not sure if you can help with that, especially since you don’t know the codebase.

        If you can think of something else to contribute, or if you want to add a basic GitHub wiki for the most common functionality and issues, I’m happy to discuss things further!
