I chose Navidrome for my music collection. I basically use it when I’m outside working around the property. Put on my raggedy ass pair of Beats, I found in the thrift store for $5…had to do some repairs but they work, on a defunct old phone just for the wifi access. When I’m inside tho, I use Music Bee. Navadrome has everything I need, tho I am still searching for a mobile app that operates like I want it too. The app I’m currently using, Agin Music, is good, but there are a couple places in the operation flow that won’t let me backtrack to the previous page I was viewing. I’ll keep testing until I find one.
Symfonium is great, and in its current state, probably the best Subsonic client for android. (Tempus is good enough for me though.) But best of luck if you ever have a nontrivial issue and ask the dev for help. That’s one abrasive mf. (Just take a look here. It’s hard to find anyone so full of themselves.)
That said, if it works for your needs, it’s a great app. I won’t judge anyone for using it, but I’m someone who can’t and won’t separate the art from its artist. If that applies to you, you’ve been warned.
I found it, however… it’s $5, which I don’t mind paying for software, then it says ‘in app purchases’. So my question is what are the ‘in app purchases’ after I lay down my $5? It does seem to have a lot of bells and whistles others don’t have.
The “in-app purchase” is a donation page where you can donate extra to the developer if you want to. It’s 100% voluntary and doesn’t unlock any extra or additional features. I’ve never donated anything beyond the $5 purchase price.
yeah for iOS ply:sub is the way to go. my friends and family who use my Navidrome server and have iphones all use ply:sub. Android friends use Symfonium.
Arpeggi on iOS is the best I’ve found. Available via TestFlight invite only.
I plan to switch to Android in the next year, so I’m always interested to hear what clients people like over there too.

DSub2000 is also fairly nice for Android.
Android or iOS?
On android I found symphonium to be a great app to use with my navidrome server. On iOS, play:sub was the best experience I found

Second for Symphonium. Hands-down best *sonic client.
Same dev makes a good kodi remote called Yatze too.
I’ll check out ply:sub. Thank you for the recommendation.
If you’re doing a search, it’s play:sub. Here is the link on iOS. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/play-sub-music-streamer/id955329386
Also, it’s a fantastic app and I use it every day.

Sweet! Thanks

Sorry, typo. It’s Play:sub
Symphonium requires google play, right?
Unfortunately, yes

On Android, you should try out Tempus.
