✨ What's New
- Downloads in Library: Find your saved music and download count directly in Library.
⚡ Improved
- Queue & Navigation Motion: Smoother drag reordering and release, with swipe-to-remove and undo. Navigation and the mini player now collapse together while scrolling, with matching glass styling.
- Quality Switching & Wavy Seekbar: More reliable selected-quality startup, preloading and Bit-Perfect transitions. Restored the lighter wavy seekbar in player and lyrics views (Experimental; off by default).
🛠️ Fixed
- Downloads & 59-Second Stops: Restored YouTube downloads, improved interrupted-download recovery, and corrected stream selection behind premature playback stops.
- Addon Playback & Offline Audio: Prevented upgrades to a different recording or language. Corrected Atmos download labels and restored seeking/duration for newly downloaded FLAC tracks.
- Local Library: Folder scans now follow your selected locations, remove out-of-scope entries and filter recordings while retaining likes and playlists.
- Likes, Playlists & Mixes: Fixed guest/YouTube like sync, restored notification like/shuffle controls, corrected playlist sorting/counts, and made Start Mix update the queue correctly.
- Player, Lyrics & Appearance: Fixed black screens when reopening the player mid-close, cleaned malformed fallback lyrics, and corrected artwork colours, widget layouts and header seams.
- Audio & Playback Crashes: Fixed Parametric EQ and BotGuard crashes, and restored external Dolby/EQ session support.
- Listen Together: Updated Jam server and invitation links. Also refreshed Italian translations.
Note
Previously affected FLAC downloads need to be downloaded again to gain the seeking fix.

Note
vivo users (LastWave-v5.2.1-vivo-origin.apk): OriginOS only shows apps from vivo's own allowlist in Origin Island and the music widget, so this build uses an allowlisted package name. It installs as a separate app next to regular LastWave (data is not shared), it cannot be installed alongside the real QQ Music app, and it updates itself from this vivo APK only. If you installed an older vivo build (shown as Spotify), uninstall it first.
Warning
Notice for Android 7.0 – 9.0 Users (LastWave-v5.2.1-android7.apk):
- Hardware GPU glassmorphism / live blur requires Android 12+ and is automatically replaced with translucent dark canvas acrylic styling on older devices. The new Signature Liquid Glass navigation selector requires Android 13+; earlier versions keep the existing navigation bar.
- The media notification uses classic Android media controls rather than Android 13's wavy-progress player.
- For any device running Android 10 or newer, please install the standard
LastWave-v5.2.1-universal.apkfor optimal performance and memory efficiency.
