Howdy birders!

We’ve been hard at work on something super seeekrit and we’d like to give you a preview. No, it’s not a series of leaked Whitehouse cables or Military secrets, it’s way more awesome: Songbird is coming to Android!

We’ll be continuing to work on it for the next few weeks before a full release, but here’s a build for you guys and dolls to try out. First, though, I need to go over a few pieces of information that will make your use of it more pleasant.

You’ll need an Android phone that’s running Android 2.1-update1 or newer for the OS
To install, you will need to enable installing applications from unknown sources (Typically under Settings -> Applications -> Check ‘Unknown Sources’ Option)
When we release a final version through the Android Market you will need to manually uninstall this build which will wipe data related to it
This build will expire 4 weeks from today so do get your testing in while it’s hot!
Download the APK
Let us know what you think! Also, have a quick look at the list of known issues we’ll be fixing before we make the full release, so you know if we’re already covering something you’ve found.

When launching app via Widget, if drawer was open previously, it gets closed
If you have an HTC Incredible, the wrong song may play when you have music on both the phone storage and the SD card
On the HTC Incredible, stuff may be sorted oddly in the Artist, Albums and Songs views when you have music on both the phone storage and SD card
Have a great weekend!

Here are some screenshots of it in action.

Looks promising. Downloading now.

Wow, I thought the Songbird team dropped all of their projects years ago... Nice to hear this.
