[APP][4.1+] For Music Lovers: Browse and Listen to songs from top Billboard charts

[Vibin]

Hello XDA, I'm the developer of a new Android app called Billy. It lets you browse and listen to the most popular pop/rock/dance songs currently.

Here are some screenshots: i.imgur.com/I7jatsU.png

The songs list is grabbed from Billboard.com, which is one of the most credible sources in song popularity charts. Songs are then streamed from SoundCloud. Apart from listening to songs, you can also watch the corresponding official YouTube video of each of those tracks and have a look at the most popular albums of artists.

It's available on Google Play. play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vibin.billy

well done
do you consider releasing the source code?
I found the Ui navigation to be very smooth.

Nothing special really. Though I will put the code on Github in some time.

Please give the app a rating/+1. Thanks

Really nice app. Looks great and feels liquid smooth!!! Can't play the songs tho.... error 1-1004, see screenshot.

Feature request: can you implement a link/search to external/other cloud player (for me spotify....)?

I'm music lover but I can't access google play store as it is blocked in my country (Sudan) could some one please attach the apk! [emoji4]

Awesome! As said smooth control!! Code released already?? See you! Keep up! Hope there will be anothe music app...not satisfied with Spotify ! Best wishes!!

Quite nice. Note: There are several of these on Play with more feeds, but awaiting more feeds here. UI is quite navigable.

Since the screen is quite sparse, used Xposed Appsettings to show more songs. Lower "DPI" and magnified font size to compensate so still readable. However, tab-bar now covers half of the title bar. So ... might suggest the number of songs/pane be adjustable and scaled within the app rather than from outside (anyone tried this using Paranoid's DPI settings?).

Might also embed a simple youtube player rather than rely on that app being around (since there are alternatives and many of us do not keep it).

Again.

Hi Dev.

I would love to give your app a good rating and +1 but i can not.

Your app does not work with wifi/proxy and i live on it. Fix the wifi network to allow proxy please.

Great app! Already rated 5 on gplay. I'm running on a little bug here when playing a few songs:



And also... Is there a way to have more content available? Thanks in advance!

 

[pippideniro]

nice app!
keep the good work on:good:

 

[xunholyx]

It definitely a great concept. With more genres to choose from it would be a killer app! I'm looking forward to see the future of this.

Way to Go

I'm supporting your app, I'm even going to recommend it to my small reader base of a local spanish Android blog we're starting, hope it gets you a bit more users and constructive feedback.

My Opinion: Is pretty good as a discovery app, I'm having no errors luckily. A way for autoplaying the sections (playlist?) would be nice. I also backup the Deezer/Rdio/Spotify linking idea. Great job man! I like your app.

I'm having the same trouble like everyone else. And it can't play the YouTube video without a YouTube app.

Yes, it happens with a few songs because SoundCloud is not providing MP3s for them. I'm trying to fix this.

Next, I think I made a bad generalization that everyone will have the official YouTube app. I'll have to fix this one too.

Yes, I'm looking into this idea. Thanks man.
