SubStreamer vs Filova

Your music. Your server. Everywhere you go. Substreamer turns your Subsonic-compatible server into a personal streaming service. Browse, play, and download your entire music library on iPhone and iPad — free, with no ads, no subscriptions, and no data collection. Verified with Navidrome, Subsonic, Gonic, Nextcloud Music, and Ampache. Also compatible with Airsonic-Advanced, Funkwhale, Supysonic, and other Subsonic API servers. STREAM & DOWNLOAD Stream in full quality or choose a bitrate that suits your connection. Download albums and playlists for offline listening with background queue processing and automatic recovery. Substreamer switches to offline mode automatically when your server is unreachable. TUNED IN — SMART MIXES Personalised playlists powered by your listening history. Time-of-day mixes, deep cuts from similar artists, decade time machines, genre blends, favorites radio, and a custom mix builder — all generated from your own library, not an algorithm trained on someone else's taste. LISTENING ANALYTICS See your play history, top artists, albums, and songs, most active listening hours, activity heatmaps, and listening streaks. Scrobbles queue locally when you're offline and sync automatically when you reconnect. Exclude specific albums or artists so one-off plays don't skew your stats. LIBRARY MANAGEMENT Browse by album, artist, or playlist. List and grid views with alphabetical quick-scroll for large libraries. 5-star ratings and favorites sync with your server. Create and manage playlists, reorder tracks, or save your current queue as a new playlist. PLAYBACK Background playback with full lock screen and notification controls. Adjustable playback speed, shuffle, and repeat. Share albums or playlists with configurable links. BEAUTIFUL & PRIVATE Light, dark, and system themes with custom accent colors. Album art color extraction for immersive detail views. No tracking, no analytics, no account required — your music stays between you and your server. OPEN SOURCE Substreamer is open source under the GPL-3.0 license. Browse the code, report issues, or contribute at github.com/ghenry22/substreamer.

Give your playlists a new life with Filova on iPhone and Mac. Find music videos associated with your Apple Music songs, compare versions and save a video selection. Then create a new playlist in Apple Music. Prepare music selections with a duration, genres and a discovery balance. Results use your selected playlist and a sample of Apple Music recommendations. You control exclusions. Import, review and transfer playlists to the services configured in the app. Filova reports unavailable matches and saves progress for interrupted transfers. An uncertain service response may require verification before resuming. On compatible devices, describe a selection using local AI. The audio workshop analyzes files you choose on your device; protected streaming downloads cannot be analyzed. Play original listening games on your device: find the tempo, a blind test, and “whose melody is it?”. Sounds are created in Filova; no commercial recording is used. Some features require an Apple Music subscription, music permission or a recent system version. AI availability depends on the device and language. A one-time purchase unlocks additional transfers; it does not include a music subscription.
