With the Android market exploding at an uncontrollable rate, which is a good thing in my opinion, many apps get missed. I am always on the hunt for new apps, old apps that I have never seen, or just something cool that you guys should check out. With a wide variety of categories for an end-user to sift through I always start with the basics; Widgets, Themes, Tools, Launchers and Music. This time around I found a pretty nice music player application that we think many of you might like as well.
The application is called InstaMusic and is being updated and developed by Nicholas Workshop. He has been working on this application for a while an is doing a great job of fixing issues and making updates. In fact he just released an update to it today. The music player does all the normal things we would expect a music player to offer, play, pause, next track, previous track and album art. It isn’t so much the player its self that makes it a cool alternative to have installed. It is the UI, look and feel of it.
Although the developer may not like comparing it to a ZUNE HD layout, that is all that comes to mind when I see it. You have your labels across the top to switch to Albums, Artists, Genres and Playlist. You get an album art preview and while in that album the cover art takes over the background. It looks really nice. Take a look –
There are still a few bugs and clean up things to work out. For instance, the artist name at the top of the screen gets cut off slightly. The same thing happens with other various sections of text. I don’t think it detracts from the overall presentation of the app much though. The application is free in the market for all to enjoy. If you have been looking to ditch the stock player for something that looks better this one could be your go to app from now on. To pick it up simply click or scan the QR code below to pick it up.
