Pain

Hello,

First of all, thank you for the amazing work on Musify - it's one of the most complete and user-friendly free music apps available on Android.

I would like to request a new feature that would enable integration with third-party automation systems, especially Home Assistant and Music Assistant.

Suggested Solution

Add a local control API or external interface that exposes basic playback and metadata functionality, for example via:

A small local HTTP API (e.g. http://device-ip:port/musify/...) Or an exposed MediaSession service that allows remote access Or a WebSocket / intent-based interface

This API should ideally offer: Playback controls Play / Pause Next / Previous Seek Set volume

Metadata access Current track title Artist Album Artwork URL or base64 Playback position + duration

(Optional but very useful) Ability to search tracks (/search?q=...) Ability to get a playable URL (direct link or proxy) for a given track
