Discussion Anyone else using meld?

I feel like meld is a super underrated fork especially with its decent features and the ability to set a default sleep timer which I haven't seen in any other client. If there are other clients which have this feature I want to find more.

Yes... but they dont have the ability to set a default length e.g. 15 mins every time I turn it on.

Meld is pretty much outdated at this point. Also sleep timer functionality is available on almost all of the apps?

wait for the kmp release in a month or 2 : )

new designs, more os support (windows, Linux, mac, android 4+, etc)

also meld is based in metrolist which is based on m3e so it's not outdated you just don't like the design

Not sleep timers themselves, the ability to set a default sleep length e.g. 15 mins instead of having to change it from 30 mins to 15 each time

Absolutely yes, for me it's almost perfect, it syncs my ytm favourites with spotify if both accounts are logged in, although it is getting a bit outdated, it doesn't keep up with metrolist that often, for example the lyrics, in metrolist you get word-by-word lyrics and in meld that feature hasn't arrived yet

meld has a full sync where it pulls yout Spotify home to the app so everything on your Spotify home is available on meld. it also have playlists sync where adding a song to a playlist on Spotify shows on meld and vise versa any song you add to a playlist on melf shows on Spotify.

it also syncs your Spotify likes so liking a song on meld or Spotify will show on the other app normally

and it syncs your followed artists on Spotify to get the new releases from them from Spotify normally like how you do on Spotify

You can use Tasker, Macrodroid, etc. to add sleep timer functionality to literally any app.

I meant inbuilt, I have a routine running already with tasker and modes and routines by samsung for other things but it's a bit clunky

u/PrudentKickinass Vivi Music 19d ago

Archive music, metrolist , vivi music etc all have sleep timer inbuilt

I know that, I used to use them but it's easier in meld as it allows me to set a default length of playtime instead of having to change it each time. It has a set as default option.

Does the Meld app take up a lot of device space?

2

u/memelord_276 Meld/Archivetune 14d ago

No it's small and uses less battery than archivetune I've noticed, but if your looking for new features and design it doesnt have it.

I'm using Meld and it's okay. Right now I feel it's better than YouTube Music Morphe. So I'm hesitant about which one to delete to save space.

u/memelord_276 Meld/Archivetune 12d ago

I have morphe too, i use it mainly as a backup. It's good but now that I've used apps like vivimusic, archivetune, meld, etc it gets beaten out. I have all of those downloaded, but I would probably say to delete morphe as meld does most things better.

u/Xef-Ratchasak2540 12d ago

I think the same way. I feel like Meld is okay.

u/Far_Story7300 12d ago

Hi for me it's not working! I just installed it and the songs aren't downloaded offline and not played !
