What's New in Etree Mobile

4.0.7

December 8, 2025

- fixed a crash that could happen if an audio file cannot be found - fixed a problem with playback of "stream_only" audio when flac playback is enabled - fixed a problem with downloading of "stream_only" audio when flac playback is enabled - note: "stream_only" audio is only available in mp3 or mp4 format, EtreeMobile will switch to those formats when playing restricted content, even if flac playback is enabled

tape traders dream!

having the ability to pull up just about any dead tape on my phone is the future i didn’t know i needed.

Overall great, but…

I love this app but the playback controls behave very oddly. If you’re playing a track and want to skip back to the beginning, pressing the skip backward button goes to the previous track unlike every other media player I’ve ever used: it should start the song over. Instead, what happens is that it skips to the beginning of the previous track. If you then press the skip forward button, it will return to the original track, with the playhead still at whatever time it was at when you first tried to start it over.

What should happen: the first time you press the skip backward button, it should seek to the beginning of the current track. Pressing it again should take you to the previous track. It should never remember where the playhead was when skipping between tracks.

Loved the app before,big problems now though...

Not being able to filter by year for concert recordings on mobile makes this app basically unusable. Sorry, I’m sure a lot of work went into this, but that’s just crazy. Just tried to β€œsearch” a Grateful Dead show by 9/27/1976 and September 27, 1976 - neither had results even though there are at least 5 sources available on Archive. You have to add the year filter back.

Can’t read show reviews

With the latest update (April 2025) the show reviews aren’t accessible…or I came see where to access them. That’s half the fun! Also, I liked being able to sort by year. Other than that, I’m happy with the new layout.
