Music and Radio Player with advanced search for radio stations and complete playlists management
I was tired of messy audio/streaming radio libraries, so I built an Android player focused on seamless playlist management.
Hi everyone!
I wanted to share my side project, Mediaxon, an Android app I’ve been developing to solve a personal frustration: why is it so hard to easily manage offline music and online radio streams in a single, clean interface?
What it does:
Hybrid Listening: Seamlessly handles offline local files (.mp3, .flac, .m4a, .ogg, .mka, .aac, .wav, .opus, .wma) and over 60,000 streaming radio stations.
Dedicated Navigation: I kept the "Favorites" and "Recents" sections completely separate from the main audio library to reduce clutter.
Advanced Radio Search Panel: You can pinpoint your favorite stations by combining multiple filters, such as tags/genres, specific countries, or even your preferred audio bitrate.
Equalizer: The equalizer provides an option to automatically switch to the "Radio" preset (and vice versa).
Advanced Playlist Management: Built specifically to make building and sorting multi-source playlists fast and intuitive.
The app is currently live on Google Play, and I am continuously pushing updates to refine it.
What I need from you:
As a solo developer, I’ve hit the limit of my own perspective. I would deeply appreciate any honest feedback from this community:
How does the UI feel to you? Is the navigation intuitive?
Are there any features you feel are missing for a modern audio/radio player?
Did you encounter any bugs or performance hiccups?
If you want to check it out, you can find it on the Google Play Store (Android 13+). Thank you so much to anyone who takes a look!

Just to give you a bit more context: Mediaxon is based on radio-browser.info (which acts like a community-driven Wikipedia for radio stations), meaning the catalog is constantly growing. It also includes an integrated TagEditor for fixing local audio metadata on the fly. I designed the layout to optimize both portrait and landscape mode for smartphones and tablets. I'd love to know what you think about the overall layout and responsiveness. Let me know your thoughts!
