v1.3.0

[faultables]

i plan to treat this as a "major update" despite the version bump being a minor version one. there is no milestone or deadline for this version but i plan to release two "major updates" before 2024 ends. i use this approach because i don't want to mess with app store updates frequently

What are your plans for the home page? Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but mine only shows a static image.

[faultables]

maybe something like in-device stats (listening activity, top artists, top albums, top tracks, daily activity, etc) since it will work both offline and online. what do you think?

[AJV20]

Love the idea. The biggest issue I have at the moment is that my library is too big so is very hard to find artists. I know the plan is to make the library not be a menu but some libraries are huge

[faultables]

thanks! currently i'm working on this library features so users can browse by playlists, artists and songs. there's still a lot of work to do (especially on performance) but i think this is an essential feature flo must have too

since you have a big library, it's worth noting that, at the moment, flo only shows the last 100 albums in your library. sorry about that! this issue should be resolved in 1.3 :)

v1.3.0 Highlights

Enhancement in Player

Currently, the "background" is somewhat boring; I even considered it a joke. But now, the background has a "translucent background" effect, although I don't use "average color" as it should be.

before (v1.2.0 (3), actual device)	after (v1.3.0 (1), simulator)

This is far from perfect, but I'm really enjoying (and proud of) the new one!

Browse by Playlists, Artists, and Songs

The most wanted feature is now live! There are no limits anymore—currently flo limits to only showing the last 100 albums—and now you can browse your collections the way you want:

Browse By Artists

Artist list	Artist detail

It shows the artist's discography too!

Browse By Playlists

Playlist list	Playlist detail

Currently, flo only streams from playlists online. I'll figure it out later!

Browse By Songs

Search, search, search

Another most wanted feature! Now you can search anywhere there's a text field.

in albums	in songs

Debug Mode

Since people have various ways of running Navidrome, I can't reproduce every bug. To make troubleshooting easier, I've added "Debug mode" in this version. The feature is very simple: every request that happens in the app will be recorded and stored on your device.

1117.1.mp4

You can inspect requests, responses, and header payloads. Before pasting, make sure you've stripped any sensitive data!

This feature was made possible thanks to Pulse.

Notable changes

• Some "spring" animations now have shorter durations (from 5s to 2s)
• Album/cover art now will be loaded (and cached!) correctly thanks to Nuke

v1.3.0 on App Store

I will submit this to App Store after #17 is resolved. Probably today, probably tomorrow, who knows.

Testflight only seems to show 1.2.0 (3) as the latest available version.

Sorry, it's still "waiting for review" for the public tester! We may get notification as soon as the team approves it.
