ViMusic is an Android app that lets you stream music from YouTube Music without needing a paid subscription. It works by pulling audio directly from YouTube Music in the background, so you can listen while using other apps or while your screen is off. The app covers most features you would expect from a dedicated music player. You can search for songs, albums, artists, and playlists, bookmark favorites, and manage your own local playlists. Songs can be reordered in a playlist or playback queue by dragging them into position. The app also fetches lyrics for songs, including synchronized lyrics that scroll along with the music as it plays. A few features go beyond basic playback. The app can cache audio chunks locally so you can replay recently listened tracks without a network connection. There is a sleep timer, audio normalization to keep volume consistent across songs, and a skip-silence option. It also supports Android Auto, which is the system that puts a simplified interface on a car's display when you connect your phone. ViMusic supports light, dark, and dynamic color themes. The dynamic option pulls colors from your Android wallpaper, which is a feature available on Android 12 and newer. You can also open YouTube and YouTube Music share links directly in the app. The app is available on F-Droid and IzzyOnDroid, which are alternative Android app stores that focus on open-source software, as well as directly from the GitHub releases page.
