Hi everyone, Dedicated to those looking for an Android client to listen to their music from a Subsonic server, here is Tempo.

You can find it on Github ready for download with the November update: it's free, it's open source and it's made by the community for the community.

If you appreciate the work put into Tempo, remember that you can star the project on Github! It's not much but it's useful to help the project grow and give visibility to the app.

For those who would like to take a look at the app before even downloading it, here is a short tour inside the app: https://imgur.com/a/fTTgjpz

This looks great! I've been using Dsub for ages because it supports streaming via DLNA to my Hifiberry device. I'd love to find a 100% FLOSS app that also has this feature.

Hate to be that guy shilling for other projects but if you're in the market, Symfonium is also worth looking at. Hands down one of the best subsonic (among other things) compatible clients available for Android, updated very frequently with a developer who's very responsive.

Symfonium looks cool, especially the support for DNLA, but it is not open source and not available on F-droid.

If those are deal breakers for you, that's fine. Most of the apps on my phone aren't open source and I already accept my phone is a device I don't control. I focus on running open infra and controlling my data, and don't worry as much about the phone save for a few key items (e.g. password management).

And, frankly, as far as user experience and featureset goes, Symfonium is second to few or none, at least IMO.

100% Symfonium is awesome.

Recently started using Tempo with Navidrome. Haven't had more than a few days of use yet, but everything has worked exactly as expected! Can't ask for much more than that.

I have investigated many, many subsonic compatible apps for one as full featured as DSub. Tempo looks great, but does it have Chromecast and Android Auto clients? Those are both necessities for me.

The fact that DSub has all of these and hasn't really been in active development for years speaks volumes about its quality.

I will keep a close eye on Tempo, though!
