I Never Meant To Do You Harmīeat has its quirks but if you’re in the market for a free, easy to use cloud music streaming app for Android, this is your best bet. The app will also play songs stored in your local library but I’d suggest against that.
The app says there’s a way to play music offline but there’s no clear button to mark songs for offline use, there’s only a cache that you seemingly have no control over. The trouble with Beat is with the UI that tries to be like Google Play Music app but fails miserably. Depending on your internet connection, it can take a couple of milliseconds to a couple of seconds to get going but once the playback has started and you’ve got a queue/playlist going, things flow smoothly. To its credit, Beat streams music quite well. The notification controls were enough for me. There’s also a floating player that you can access no matter where you are.
The right sidebar contains settings and feature options.įrom here you can limit the cache for songs that are available for offline use. The one on the left shows the connected cloud storage services and their cached content. The rest of the songs in the folder will be added to the queue. After a couple of seconds, when it has buffered just enough, it will start playing. Once you’ve found your jam, tap on it and the app will start downloading it. The music scanning didn’t work for me so I just went to my Music folder in Dropbox.
Once you’re logged in, you can browse the entire file system or look for music specifically. It allows you to log in to cloud based storage accounts like Google Drive, Dropbox, Box and OneDrive.
So instead, download an app called Beat (free). You can do it the old school way and just download or play songs one by one from the Dropbox app but that’s just not the best way.
