I recently got into the piracy community, and discovered a great open source app for Android that allows you to stream music for free from YouTube music! It’s called ViMusic and it’s one of the best free music apps imo. It has a beautiful and customizable interface and it actually has a music recommendation algorithm which is one of the main reasons people still pay for music subscriptions like Apple Music instead of pirating. This app has been really helpful to me and I hope that it can be to you too :)
I just downloaded it and holy shit this app is pretty and works well.
ViMusic is incredible. I’d drop Spotify premium in a heart beat if the rest of my family weren’t on the same plan. Would be nice to save $15/mo
Imo InnerTune do the same and it’s more updated
There’s also innertune (yt music, like vimusic) and xmanager (Spotify)
Just be aware that while xmanager itself is open source, the patched spotify apks it downloads and installs can be filled with obfuscated malware and you have no way of knowing.
The patches aren’t open source.I second xmanager
Using it as well for 2 years I think! Great stuff
I love ViMusic, it’s helped me find a lot of music over thr time I’ve used it. Its reccomendations are quite good, and I can just donate to the artist if I like the music instead of trusting my streaming service to underpay them.
Yeah I’ve also found some really great songs through ViMusic
I use a pirated version of Tidal on my phone, but ViMusic is great too.
link me
For what? Tidal or ViMusic?
There is also revanced YouTube Music
So, to use this, I download F-droid to my Android device and then download Vimusic?
You don’t need to download F-droid, you can just scroll down to the downloads section on that page. Also you can just find the ViMusic GitHub repo and download it from the releases there.
Thank you
Do you need any help with fdroid ? did you do it ?
https://kbin.social/u/@[email protected] that was so kind to inquire. No, I haven’t done it yet. I’m gathering info for when I bite the bullet and buy a laptop specifically for sailing the high seas. Right now I’m just streaming from YT with an ad blocker. I’ll save your reply for the future in case I need to reach out for help. TY!
That works. F-Droid is an alternative to the Play store. You can also download the .apk directly instead if you prefer. Just scroll down to the versions and find the most recent.
Also Try Ymusic

You all are talking about Vodafone idea music or it is a different app
I mean i just download stuff from YouTube…
I do too, but I still listen to stuff on ViMusic because it makes reccomendations based on what you listen to, and I think they’re better than normal YouTube reccomendations. If I find a song I like, then I just download it and listen to it.
Yeah downloading is also great, but this is good for people who just want a Spotify alternative or something and just want to stream rather than download.
Hm, im just from a country with problematic Internet coverage, so streaming is not that good.
Checks out, lol
