I have been using Lollypop on my phone for about 2 years now. I have tried a few other apps but nothing worked quite as well for me as Lollypop.

That said, I still have a lot of gripes with Lollypop. Rather than complain about it, though, I'd rather hear about something new.

The last time I went looking for a new app was in 2023. Is there anything new in 2025 worth checking out?

My wants:

  • Large-ish local library (350gb) and I want it to load/scroll through fast. Lollypop is quite slow here.
  • I really prefer the UI to list artists, open one, then list albums, open one, then list songs. Too many apps list all your albums, or all your individual songs, and I hate this.

Edit: I guess I need to specify, I am looking for Linux-native apps. A few of the suggestions so far have been Android, and I am not seeking to run anything in Waydroid for this.

Dont know how it performs on such a large collection, but can recommend Fossify Music Player.
