Try this at home and see what happens - Version build-911-arm64

Requirements:

  1. Have a Google or Nest Home speaker
  2. Android phone
  3. Poweramp app
  4. A song to play continuously
  5. Disable ALL phone power managment - there are many YT videos that show you how to do this

NOW TRY THIS:

  1. Open Poweramp app
  2. Connect to your Google or Nest Home speaker
  3. Play a song and set it to repeat
  4. Please report how many hours does Poweramp play music before it stops playing on its own (not killed by OS power management)?

I have 4 different Android phones and none of them can play 24/7.  These are models: 

  • Samsung Note 8
  • Samsung Note 20 5G Ultra
  • Samsung A32
  • LG Stylo 6)

App obviously works until closed by system. Ensure that you have Unlocker app either also allowed to run in background (not optimized in Samsung terms), or uninstall it. (Unlocker app uses same process via Android sharedUid feature, which is rarely properly supported by background optimizers).

The unlocker app has also "not been optimized" per Samsung's (confusing as hell) terms 😂

 

Sometimes, power amp plays for a few hours, sometimes all night. It's so random? 

 

Let's see what others can replicate and try to fix this bug? 

 

I run Google / Nest speakers for multi-room speakers in my businesses. 

 

I like your app and the EQ features. 

 

But we can't figure out why it stops working on its own? 

 

What features do we lose if we remove the unlocker app? 

 

The main features we like are Google cast and the amazing EQ.

@MarsOrBust also, Google just updated cast libraries to the next major version and these has been integrated into the next Poweramp build 915. This may help with the stability and I hope it won’t break something else.
