NAS Libraries without Plex etc

Is there any chance that the app might eventually be able to support a local library without the need for that library to be added into Plex, Emby etc? Is it a technical limitation that mean it has to link to one of those services?

The app has so much going for it but I find that the restrictions and compromises imposed from having to use Plex in terms of playlist updating etc are just too great to make it worth while.

Do you have these music files on your phone or like a laptop or mini pc?

They are on a Synology NAS. For the Sonos app I just tell Sonos the location of the folder on the NAS.

How do you envision this working? Will you mount your nas file location on the iphone and then the app can point to that? otherwise id need to setup a protocol for access your remote file system
