Version rolled back from v4.x to v3.7.0. After extensive work on v4's
internal streaming engine, smart queue, DASH pipeline, and media controls,
we realized v3 was already feature-complete. Adding more big features
only made maintenance increasingly difficult and the developer's life
miserable. Stripped back to what works: external player only, cleaner
codebase, sustainable long-term.
- Remove just_audio, audio_service, audio_session and entire internal
playback engine (smart queue, notification, shuffle/repeat, prefetch)
- Remove PlaybackItem model, MiniPlayerBar widget, notification drawables
- Remove playerMode setting (external-only now)
- Migrate MainActivity from AudioServiceFragmentActivity to
FlutterFragmentActivity
- Migrate Qobuz to MusicDL API
- Update changelog with v3.7.0 rollback explanation
- Add HTTPS-only validation for APK downloads and update checks
- Use .select() for Riverpod providers to prevent unnecessary rebuilds
- Add keys to all list builders for efficient updates
- Implement request cancellation for outdated API requests
- Debounce all network requests (URLs and searches)
- Limit file existence cache to 500 entries
- Add ref.onDispose for timer cleanup
- Add error handling for share intent stream
- Redesign About page with Material Expressive 3 style
- Rename Search tab to Home
- Remove Features section from README
