Changelog

FYI:
Lokal is 100% local; the library, history, anything in database, or any info that is used for API's such as yt-dlp, LRCLIB, is NOT seen by us.

✨ New Features

  • Switch between full-screen views. Go straight from the full-screen player to full-screen lyrics and back. They're now one view with two layouts, so switching is instant. (#73, #74, #76)
  • Downloads know their source. A song you already downloaded isn't downloaded twice. Downloading a song you were streaming replaces the streamed copy in your likes and playlists, from any source, and the library refreshes after the swap. (#79, #80)
  • One song, one heart. Liking a song likes it whichever copy you click (streamed or downloaded). (#81)
  • More artist info. TheAudioDB and Deezer are now artist info sources, with a setting to pick one and a "refresh all artists" action. The Manage menu is smoother, and deleting an artist can delete their files too. (#77)

🛠️ Fixes

  • Popups open on screen again. Delete and Edit track info, and the other popups inside a page, no longer open off-screen on scrolled pages. Play next and Add to queue now have hover text and a confirmation popup. (#72)
  • Smarter download tagging. Reversed "Song - Artist" titles are detected (using your library and MusicBrainz) and swapped. SoundCloud downloads take the artist from "Artist - Track" instead of the uploader. "feat." credits follow the artist, and stylised names like "h x m x d" or names with commas stay one artist. (#77, #80)
  • Deleted songs can be saved again, and a re-download clears the "removed" flag. Deleting a song also clears its lyrics translations. (#77, #78)
  • No more empty artist pages from streamed songs. Artist album cards match their tracks again. (#79, #80)
  • Lyrics panel: changing songs clears the source picker's spinner, and a cached song shows its lines even if the previous one was still loading. (#76)
  • Smoother full-screen transitions: the colour backdrop's blur is pre-rendered. (#75)

🔧 Small Updates

  • Library refresh: downloads refresh the library, and one scan triggers one refresh. Cancelling the folder picker no longer starts a scan. (#78)
  • Music Folder moved: the Music Folder card is now in Library. (#78)
