• Disable local media auto scanner by default. I'd image most people are using this as a remote only player anyways and this is probably the cause of several crash loops
• Added device info under settings --> about
• Added debug settings to delete format entity, local artists

0.7.0 ALPHA 2

Warning

This version is probably(?) unstable, and may be prone to bug, crashes, and Lochness monster appearing by your bedside at night.

It is highly recommended to take a backup before updating to this version. Backups taken with this version will NOT work on previous releases (0.6.x)!!!.

There is no guarantee that you will be able to update to the final release from alpha builds without data loss

Changes from alpha 1

• Details dialog is available in song menus
• Fix song playback when logged in (it's now the exact same as 0.6.4, with no changes)
• Fix crash when local scanner tries to migrate local artists to remote artists
• Disable auto scanning by default
• Add manual sync button (in experimental settings)
• Added logout button and token editor. You can specify a login token directly and bypass the login process
• Sync strings

v0.6.4 [HOTFIX]

Changes from previous version (0.6.3)

This version fixes playback when logged in (well... for now...). Please note that this uses the "logged out" method of song playback for ALL song playback, and as a result, content that you need to be logged in for (and possibly age-restricted content) would be inaccessible. A proper fix would be released in the future.

Bug Fixes

• Fixes #140 song playback while logged in

OuterTune 0.6.0

We are excited to finally bring you OuterTune, a supercharged fork of InnerTune with several new features and enhancements!

Why OuterTune?

• Fully fledged syncing of artists, songs, playlists and albums — both to and from your YouTube Music account
  • Remote listen history is viewable, but not modifiable (it's read only)
• Support for playing YouTube Music songs AND local audio files (ex. MP3, FLAC, OGG) in one app
  • Import m3u playlists (for now only works with local media)
• New library screen layout
  • Classic InnerTune layout can be enabled in settings
  • Configurable tab/page order and visibility (for both old and new layout)
    • Hide unwanted screens
    • Reorderable tabs
• Multiple queues
  • Have you ever been midway through your jumbo sized playlist and accidentally clicked on a random song you didn't want to play... and oh no, you've lost your playlist position! Ever wanted to quickly flip back and forth between 2 playlists? Well now you can, and much more!
  • Per queue shuffle status & automatically re-shuffle at end of queue (when repeat is enabled
    )
• Redesigned player & queue screens
  • Dynamic gradient & blur backgrounds
  • Player controls in the queue screen
• Many more little enhancements and fixes

Migrating data from InnerTune

1. Export a backup from within InnerTune
2. Restore the backup from within OuterTune

** Note: Due to technical differences, not all data may transfer over. As of writing, only the original InnerTune up to version 0.5.10 has been tested.
