Derecom is the brand new music player that finally brings some colors into your listening experience. With Derecom you can: - play all your albums, playlists, and favorite songs from your Music library - manage your up next Queue (e.g. add, delete, reorder, and search items in the queue) - set up Reminders to help you keep your Library in order - choose your favorite Theme, and watch the colors of the app reflect the beautiful artworks of your albums and collections! What else? - Derecom supports playback of Apple Music songs, albums, playlists, and radio stations! - Derecom now supports iPad natively (even split-screen and slide-over) This app is exactly for you if enjoy curating your own music library, but also like streaming new songs and discovering new artists. Feel free to reach out with new ideas that can make Derecom Music Player even better. Known app limitations:  - Apple Music support is limited to playback. You cannot add or delete tracks to your playlists or to your library. However, you can use the Reminders to stack these tasks up until you find the most convenient time to apply these modifications through iTunes or - in a lesser extent - through Music.app - Any reordering of songs in the playback queue is not immediately applied to the actual system queue, because of current iOS limitations (i.e. that's why most players similar to Derecom don't offer queue management features). Derecom will find the right opportunity to apply the new queue (e.g. at song changes), unless you just click the Apply button yourself.
