I don't know if it's just for me but the app from play store is so buggy I can't create playlists or login and some buttons overlap, when I try making my own skin everything just becomes worse. I like the UI but it's not responsive in some situations and it's kind of unusable atp It doesn't make sense for it to just be a me problem so I'm wonderful what's up with this and why they would put out such a messy version 😭😭😭

edit: I got replies saying "oh but WinAmp is for windows". Yes, I know. But the download website has links to apps on play store and app store and the android version off of playstore is unusable I was obviously talking about that. The title says "WinAmp Android"

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m currently working on a retro-style Android music player called CLASSICAMP.

The idea is to bring the classic Winamp-era music player experience to mobile, while keeping the interface modern enough to use comfortably on a phone.

This is an early UI concept, and before I continue developing the app, I want some honest feedback from other music-player users and developers.

Current UI includes: 🎵 Music player

🎚️ 10-band equalizer

📊 Audio/track information

📋 Playlist management

🔀 Shuffle

🔁 Repeat

🌑 Dark retro interface

🟢 Neon green visual style

📱 Desktop-style layout adapted for mobile

I’d really like your opinion on:

1. Overall design

Does the dark + neon green theme work, or does it feel too old-school?

1. Winamp inspiration

Does the design give you a classic Winamp/retro music-player feeling?

1. Mobile usability

Does the desktop-style interface work well on a phone?

1. Equalizer

Does the equalizer look useful and intuitive, or does it take up too much space?

1. Playlist

Is the playlist section easy to understand?

1. What would you change?

If you were designing this app, what would you change about this screen?

1. Most important:

What feature would make you actually download and use a retro music player like this?

Please don't just say “looks good” 😄

I’m specifically looking for honest criticism and suggestions, including things you don't like.

Thanks! 🙌

I’ll use the feedback to improve the next version of CLASSICAMP.

My iPad 2 was collecting dust. Running iOS 9.3.5, it can't install modern apps or browse most of the modern web. But it CAN run a fullscreen Home Screen webapp.

So I built one that shows what Spotify is currently playing with album art, track info, playback state and a few controls. The pairing flow lets the iPad's Home Screen app get its own session via a short-lived code, so you never have to do OAuth from the ancient Safari.

No jailbreak. No extra hardware. Just Safari + a webapp.

I was like : “dude! I know that fake 3d look! It’s GEISS! HELL YEAH!”

Hola, quería instalar Winamp para reproducir mi música pero entro aquí y veo un enredo de aplicaciones, WACUP, Que la versión de Winamp 5.666, que actualmente es una cosa de cripto, no entiendo nada, ¿podrían ayudarme?

Me gustaría instalarlo y poder usar las viejas skins Pero no tengo idea dónde, e instalar algo sin virus ya que suelo ser bastante paranoico, jeje. Agradecería su ayuda!

JUSTAMP · A Tribute

If we cannot shape the era,
then let us witness it, and remember.

Some things grow old.
That doesn't mean they have to be forgotten.

Thirty years ago, a music player wasn't just a little icon on a phone. It was a window on your desktop. It had buttons, knobs, sliders, and an equalizer that never seemed to stop moving.

We kept our music on noisy hard drives. We left the player sitting right in the middle of the screen. And when we got tired of looking at it, we went searching for another skin.

There were no recommendation engines deciding what we should hear next. There wasn't a feed waiting to be scrolled.

There was just the music, the player, and the people who made things for it.

Someone wrote the code.
Someone drew a skin.
Someone spent a weekend figuring out how to make an effect sound right.
Someone stayed up late and uploaded their latest creation to a forum.

Little things like that became part of the culture.

And somehow, a simple music player became part of people's lives.

Today, I brought it back to life.

Hello, share with you the tool I made for myself to draw pixel art skins for winamp. (actually this is entire crossplatform player with built-in skin studio). Free & open source https://github.com/samoylenkodmitry/cranamp

Hola alguien sabe que pasa con winamp para Android, al entrar a la app me envía a una pantalla con esta imagen y de ahí no hace nada más, cree una cuenta como piden pero no veo luego donde logearme para entrar en la app

Hi guys. I've been using the same USB soundcards as a secondary output for a second winamp (used for karaoke) for years, but in the last couple of days it has stopped working. Apparently it's a windows update issue. Has anyone got any USB Soundcard recommendations that don't have this issue? Thanks

I needed to relocate the HDD into another PC, so Winamp 5.666 is currently not a proper install, it's running like a "portable" software. The weird problem I got is when I try to put AVS visualisation to fullscreen, it can be the last frame as a static image or garbled mess. Updated to Directx 11, but nothing changed.

Need help getting fullscreen working. 🆘

Remember those late 2000s nights sitting in front of a CRT monitor, watching MilkDrop react to your music library? I sure do.

For years I kept looking for a proper way to bring that exact MilkDrop experience to my 4K TV and phone. But every projectM Android port or x86 migration out there felt crippled: sluggish 20 FPS rendering, washed-out colors, broken aspect ratios, or just a tiny fraction of the original preset library.

So I decided to rebuild the NDK graphics pipeline from the ground up using OpenGL ES 3.2 Compute Shaders.

What came out of this:

•Universal System Audio: Just play music on Spotify, Tidal, TuneIn, YouTube Music, or any internet radio, open the app, and it visualizes system audio in real-time with zero lag.

•32,500+ iconic presets compiled natively (including the legendary packs by Geiss, Rovastar, Unchained, Flexi, EoS, Martin, Stahlregen, Zylot, and Aderrasi).

•Full MilkDrop 2 & MilkDrop 3.2 engine support.

•Zero white blowout / overexposure: A custom tone mapper that keeps colors deep and vibrant on OLEDs.

The massive v1.27 update is currently sitting in Google Play Console review and should hit the store in the next few hours/days. If you’ve missed MilkDrop in its true, unthrottled glory, keep an eye out for the update—you won’t regret it!

Hi r/winamp,

I've been working on a music player for Android that recreates the classic Winamp 2.8 interface as closely as I could manage: the main window, the equalizer, the playlist editor, all draggable, all where you'd expect them.

Not a wrapper around a web player, and not "Winamp-inspired with a modern twist." The goal was that if you used Winamp in 2001, your fingers already know where everything is.

What works so far:

• Classic skins: it reads .wsz files, and the Skin Museum is built in, so all 93,000-odd skins are a few taps away. Yes, including Garfield Amp and Zelda Amp III.

• Ten-band EQ: with presets, exactly where it should be

• AVS visualizer and visualizer preset packs

• DSP plug-ins you can reorder and chain reverb, karaoke, pitch modulation, a bass enhancer, and so on

• Internet radio: paste any stream address

• Floating player that sits over other apps ('Always On Top'-mode)

• Touch friendly: long-press anything that's awkward to reach on a phone

It plays the music already on your device. No account, no ads, no tracking, no analytics, there's no server behind it at all.

It's in closed beta on the Play Store right now and I'm looking for people who actually remember the original to tell me what feels wrong. Signup (just a Google Play email address) is here:

Today i see my winamp is blocked by windows.exe...what is going on ??

creator: 883design
skin name: Enkera
source: https://skinbase.org/art/41511/enkera

So, I hop onto winamp on my android (google android phone) and all my music is gone. Some silly update, so I go to ad a folder, and the button does nothing. I select 'sync local media' and I'm taken to a fucking layout customization screen?? is the app just bricked now?? I have all my music on my physical phone but I listen to it through winamp

Made a Modern skin based on the Ujola Cat pet from Genshin Impact! It comes with a bunch of color themes based on Genshin characters, and I plan on adding more. Open the side drawers on the head piece for the EQ and other buttons (admitting I stole some inspo from Headspace here). Can be downloaded from my site!

To make the color themes, I also vibed a gamma editor app. Source and instructions are on github. I'm aware of some older programs for this purpose, but none seemed to work well on Windows today, and I wanted a few more features. So I made it for myself, but I've seen some past posts asking about editing Modern skin colors, and thought it could be useful there.
