It was the third time.

bro you a life saver

Add a volume control in now playing screen and it will be good!

You are welcome to add it yourself, it’s a very trivial thing to do (the padding will probably be wrong, but that’s also a 2 min fix)

I won’t add it since it isn’t in the original App.

Stable V2

There’s a lot of tiny things that have changed, so expect the changelog to not be 100% accurate.
As always, thanks to Tolriq for keeping up with everyones Feature Requests and Support requests, especially for this release as this theme only works on the brand new Symfonium V14, which gave us a LOT of new features to play with!

I’d love to have some feedback on what Apple Music has that this theme does not. On every release I realise that I forgot/ignored something, so having some feedback would speed up the process!

Changes

  • Using brand new background style on NPS (Thanks Tolriq)
  • A lot of sections have been resized per Apple Music standards.
  • Home page now features a Vertical Row section (Thanks Tolriq)
  • Lyrics now extend through the whole heigh of the display (Thanks Tolriq)

Fixes

  • Now Playing Screen now replicates better the Apple Music one (text size and position were off)
  • Various changes that bring the theme closer to Apple Music

Notes

  • Dynamic text now uses Localized labels, so it will translate in whatever language you use.
  • Old Dynamic text doesn’t work on Symfonium V14+
  • Apple Music has release a new “fullscreen design” for album and playlist pages. This unfortunately isn’t possible at the moment in Symfonium, as the system isn’t there (Apple Music’s implementation has some flaws, and that’s also another reason that the feature doesn’t exist yet in Symfonium)
    I hope that some smart people will figure out the colour picking method and make this feature available, but for now we are gonna stay with the old design. (See this if you are interested.
    Please don’t reply to it, unless you are one of the smart people that could come up with a fix!)
  • Apple Music has a Copyright section under the album page, that also can’t be implemented as the COPYRIGHT tag isn’t really parsed by providers. (See this for an explanation)
  • The Playlist page acts more like the Library tab on Apple Music, I won’t change to a Row style like the actual Playlist page.
  • The Android Apple Music app does not have the volume bar in the Now Playing Screen, so I won’t add it (until Apple decides to add it. I’ll try to keep myself updated on it)

(Btw, thanks Google for taking more than 3 days to validate a freaking app..)

Love the update. Thanks so much. Is there a way for me to fund a pint for you?

No, but there is a way to give a coffee to the person that made this possible!
Thanks for the nice words! I’m happy that there are people that enjoy this theme (even if it hides some nifty features like Instant Mix and Radio Mix, which can be accessed by long pressing on a artist/album)
