Hi everyone! We’re incredibly excited to announce that we’re launching a beta of Finamp’s redesign today. This is a major update to the app, and we’re looking for feedback from anyone willing to try it out before we roll it out to everyone.

The beta is a work-in-progress, there are several new features already, but we will be adding more features over time.

Looks very nice!

    Curious if this will fix my one issue I have with Finamp.

    I have some quite large playlists I’d like to listen on shuffle. Finamp doesn’t do that well at all. (It seems it only shuffles what it has cached or something, as it seems to shuffle “only” the first 100 or so songs. of 3000+)

      My issue is that I use a self signed CA, there is some progress in that area, but last time I checked not something usable on my device

          That wasn’t a thing last time I tried. Is that possible now? Or do you mean for my android system? I have the CA installed on my system of course, but iirc the flutter library they use does not use the system store.

              The regular jellyfin app works with the system can store. This is only about finamp.

      How quick and useful is the interface compared to the regular Jellyfin app when playing music? I currently use the regular client, since I already have it installed for video content.

        If you use iOS (I can’t speak for Android) it actually uses the system music apis, so things like the dynamic island, airplay, transmission of Metadata information over Bluetooth to players (name, song, etc), and background play control all work with Finamp where they don’t with the regular jellyfin app.

        Finamp looks like what you would expect from a music player app. It’s very straight forward to browse you songs by Artists and Albums. It’s easy to make playlists and queue songs ans Albums. Lastly, you can download songs and albums locally and play them offline.
