Installation

Get it on GitHub

After installing, I recommend executing the following ADB command to neutralize some animation lags you may experience in cold starts:

adb shell cmd package compile -r bg-dexopt it.vfsfitvnm.vimusic

Known problems

The application is using androidx.media3, which is unstable. Expect random crashes or buggy notification behaviours. Hopefully, they will be fixed within the next alpha release.
