Ambient Music Mod 2.1.2

Ambient Music Mod | Now Playing

Ambient Music Mod is a Shizuku/Sui app that ports Now Playing from Pixels to other Android devices.

• Android device running Android 9.0 or above (11+ recommended).
• Shizuku (Android 12+) or Sui Magisk module (Android 9+).
  • Shizuku does not require root, instead needing an ADB command to be run every reboot.

• Full Now Playing support, based on the latest version from Pixel devices and the latest music databases
• Automatic Ambient Music recognition, with settings to control how often recognition runs - finding the right balance between battery usage and convenience
• Now Playing History, Favourites and Summary support
• Support to trigger recognitions manually, including a homescreen widget
• On Demand recognition on supported devices, using the Google Assistant-backed recognition engine for songs that are not in the local database (must be triggered manually)
• Show Now Playing songs on the lock screen (accessibility service required)
• View the full track list of recognisable songs, and change the database location if your taste does not match your device's locale
