been using it for two months, the UI needs improvements , major ones. still couldn't figure out how to make a playlist, it does not even show newly added mp3s even after refresh.

My fav is Xplay. Minimalistic with simple equalizer and the best part it has the lockscreen interface to directly change songs.

Suggest me any best music player which supports:

1. "Recently" added music playlist
2. Folder selection , excluding ringtone folder.

Ttpod. If you are on 4.3 or lower you'll find it on play store. On 4.4 you can get it on blackmart.

I would say GooglePlay Music is just the best at this point. So, I'd say try using it out other than that you can also try double twist but Google Play Music is best when it come to sense and simplicity.

But even the Stock android player can display Album art. Just put the album art image in the folder containing your soundtracks.

Ttpod downloads album art itself, has inbuilt lyrics downloader too :p

I also wanted a music player tried out the above suggested ones and they are great...

but none of the media players are able to stream music via wifi direct to tv or other multimedia system

my friends Samsung and Sony devices are able to do so by their own inbuilt player. Sony has throw option and Samsung has something similar.

any help?

If i want to download Sony's walkman app could someone tell me how?

Suggest me music player that saves playlist after restart of phone. In google Play Music after restarts it looses playlist songs.

My all songs are on SD card.

Any basic player will do that. Try out shuttle free version.

For android you can use the MediaPlayer class and its method over some buttons to play and pause the file.

I think Google play music is the best player for Android smartphones because Google Play Music is a one of a kind music player in that it's both a streaming service and a standalone music player.

Musixmatch is great for Artwork and lyrics. But, I doubt about it's simplicity for you. I think it's simple but to you, it might not be.

groove music which is exclusive for windows 10 is awesome as it arranges all the albums orderly by scanning the system and it is easy to create playlist by selecting folders
